Camping in Scotland usually means looking for somewhere to cook in the dry and store your wet gear. Short days mean less warmth, and you’ll want to bundle up, especially for the nights. If it is super lightweight then it might be a little cramped on the flip side if it’s spacious it won’t be light – therein lies the compromise. Daylight can be as little as six hours long, with the sun setting around 3pm. Bear in mind the perfect tent doesn’t exist. Scottish winter is where things can get bleak and the population retreats inside their homes and the local pub to spend time with friends and family.
