What makes a camping experience really special? For Cool Camping, it’s the location, the view, the ambience, the surrounding area and even the philosophy and attitude of a campsite’s owners – that perfect combination of factors that transforms a mere campsite into a very special place to camp.

Cool Camping: England kicked off the series, quickly followed by Wales, Scotland, France, and a second, bumper edition of England – phew! And the hunt for canvas-holiday gold continues as the Cool Camping team have been busy uncovering the best sites across Europe, as well as fantastic UK sites for the family in Cool Camping: Kids. Both books available now!

The Cool Camping Cookbook is the perfect culinary accessory to any of the books, featuring delicious recipes that are easy to rustle up no matter where you and your tent may be.
