BY APPOINTMENT
Camperlands is proud to announce its appointment as sole UK distributor for the Camplet range of trailer tents. Camp-let joins the growing list of trailer tent brands on offer at Camperlands, many of which are totally unique to anything else on offer in the UK trailer tent market today. The word unique can sometimes imply, the existence of a degree of impracticality or lack of universal appeal but this is certainly not true of the current trailer tent range found at Camperlands and this includes the latest Danish offering the Camp-let.
Camp-let production started in 1969 in a small town called Arnum in southern Denmark. Like many successful businesses the Camp-let was and still is, a family owned concern. Manufacturing takes place from 2-modern factories, where they also produce Euro Trailers and Mustang Horse Trailers. According to Camp-let the name Camp-let translates into, 'quick set up - quality and design'.
COMBINED TRAILER TENT AND FOLDING CAMPER
The Camp-let offers users all the luxuries of the folding camper along with the ease of use, storage and manoeuvring advantages offered by a compact trailer tent. The cabin section is non pegging with a kitchen permanently attached to the trailer (no heavy lifting), this is characteristic of a folding camper! The chassis size is small and compact and is not to be confused or compared to the much heavier and larger chassis used by a typical folding camper. A small compact trailer chassis required less effort to is tow, store and manoeuver. When the Camp-let is rested it can be stored on its side with the help of mobile side stores, from here it can be wheeled into the corner of the garage. The Camp-let has running water and four models are fitted with a 12 volt socket. Why not equip your Camp-let with a fridge, mains electricity and a full 12 volt system, complete with leisure battery. .
(Lightweight Leisure Trailers Awards)
For the 5th year running the Camp-let was voted "Best Lightweight Trailer Tent". The competition is run by the Caravan Club at the National Exhibition Centre at Birmingham. Over the last 5 years the Camp-let has competed against all the leading UK and European Trailer Tent manufacturers. Judges were looking for overall design strengths, including, ease of use, erecting and packing away, comfort, value for money and quality.
QUALITY FROM THE ROAD UP
To see the Camp-let in the flesh, is too appreciate its quality, which becomes immediately apparent the moment you set eyes on it. The robust body shell is manufactured from very strong fibreglass, which gives the Camp-let the deceptive appearance of being much heavier than it actually is; in fact the Camp-let's starting weight is under 250 kg, incredibly light for any trailer tent. Driving with Camp-let is such a pleasure, its excellent driving characteristics, unobstructed rear view, good petrol economy and classic design has made the Camp-let trailer a popular travel companion throughout the UK and Europe.
HARD TOP
The Camp-let comes as standard with a hard top and luggage rack. The lockable hard top is a big advantage over it's rivals as it provides a safe and secure trailer with the ability to store additional equipment on top. It is no problem to carry bikes - top box - cases - wind surfer - small boat or fishing gear.
CANVAS AND ACRYLIC
The Camp-let canvas and acrylic is manufactured by Isabella, a leading European awning manufacturer. The canvas fabric used by Isabella is supplied by Ten Cate, who are recognised as the worlds best tent cloth manufacturers (as depicted by the Ten Cate logo below). The canvas is heavier than typically used within trailer tent design, with the wall fabric weighted at 285grams/m2 and the roof weighted even heavier at 320 grams/m2. The Camp-let is therefore equipped with a canvas of some pedigree that guarantees long life and offers very high levels of resistance to degradation, caused by harmful UV-rays, winds and general handling. The canvas is manufactured to a higher standard than normal with detail to reinforcement on pegging points, main stitching areas and 6 corner areas in the roof canvas.
BUILT TO LAST
There would be no point equipping the Camp-let with a canvas of such longevity if the rest of the trailer tent were not as well thought through. Camp-let is constructed from the best quality materials, which promise to provide the benefit of long life and low maintenance. Evidence of Camp-lets equal conviction to its manufacturing processes comes in the form of a 1982 Camp-let, owned by a Camperlands sales advisor, who has reliably informed us that, ' It is still going strong'. Camp-lets are manufactured using rust free components, from the galvanised chassis and stainless steel screws to the lid hinges and fastening catches. There is nothing else to compare to the Camp-let, so its no surprise that second hand Camp-lets are hard to come buy with satisfied customers holding onto them or handing them down through family and friend networks.
DESIGN - EASE OF USE - ERECTING
With 5 models to choose from, any Camp-let, BOTH CABIN AND AWNING can be erected in approximately one minute. The cabin is non pegging like a folding camper. The main awning frame is pre-assembled and already attached to the trailer, which unfolds from the trailer in a pram hood action. A small amount of pegging is required and you are more or less there. Basically it is possible to arrive on-site and in 5 to 8 minutes you can relax, your Camp-let is ready for use.
