Combi Camp Trailer Tent – (A class of its own!)
Combi Camp Trailer Tent Overview:
The Combi Camp is a Danish made
trailer tent that offers flexibility and ease of
pitching. The cabin takes about 30 seconds to set up and
can be used alone or with an awning and/or a sun canopy.
The cabin has permanent beds within the trailer base and
the lid folds over to provide a solid floor supported
off the ground by the luggage rack. The awning, if
attached, doubles the living space.
Makes And Models
There are two basic designs – an
‘Easy’ which opens lengthways to provide a large double
bed,
or a ‘Family’ which opens sideways
to provide two double beds.
More Recent Designs
The more recent designs have kitchens attached
and come complete with
fridge and 3 burner cooker. Some older Easy and Family models
have an attached annex which increases living/sleeping
space. The newer Pandas, Venezias and County have an
optional zip on annex.
Size And Weight
The unladen weight varies from 250 -
500kg depending on the model. The maximum laden weight
is between 500 and 750 kg but care needs to be taken
when considering the maximum permissible weight of the
towing vehicle, especially if the trailer is unbraked.
The trailer body is approx 3m long (4.5 approx with
drawbar) x 1.5 m wide
