Pros: Canvas camp beds are comfy and these are no exception. The kids will sleep very well in these. There’s an awful lot of construction that goes into a setting up camp, even with an inflatable Berghaus tent. I have to say rolling things up – mattresses, sleeping bags, you name it, is my LEAST favourite part of the camping experience. I think this is partly why the Hi Gear camp bunk beds appealed to me! I like the fact there’s no faffing around with pumps, and no issues with having to deflate beds like you get with blow-up mattresses.

They feel really sturdy – my husband even ended up sleeping on one for a night, during a bed-hopping evening with the kids – you know the kind. I’m 5’8″, so you can get an idea for the length of the bunk bed in the photo above. Versatile in that it can be used as two single cots or even a bench (perfect for gathering around a campfire) Take your kids camping bunk to the Peak District with this handy camping guide to the area from Peak District Kids.

Camping bunk beds for kids: Hi Gear Duo Bunk review

Yes I highly recommend the Hi Gear Duo bunk! The bunk beds are portable, practical, convenient, durable and strong. Our kids loved them and took it in turns each night to sleep on the top bunk. They slept really well in the bunk beds, better than they have slept anywhere EVER before – sometimes even until 10am (!) in the morning (although this was also to do with the busy, outdoor, late-night camping lifestyle).If you’ve ever slept on a canvas camping tent bed, you’ll know how comfy they are. In terms of sleeping bags for bunk beds, our young kids slept in these padded Vango Starlight sleeping bags and were more excited by the prospect of who was going on the top bunk, than the softness of the bed, so were very happy with their lot.

If you were really worried about kiddy-sleeping comfort though, you could always buy a portable mattress topper for the camping bunk beds, however I found the little ‘lip’ of the edges was great at preventing our wriggly three year old from falling out of the bottom bunk. The side panels on the top bunk naturally stop that from happening. You don't have permission to access "http://www.gooutdoors.co.uk/camping/camping-furniture/camp-beds/br:hi-gear/" on this server.
