5 luxury camping gadgets you never knew you needed

The word ‘luxury’ probably isn’t the first thing that springs to mind when it comes to camping. After all, a couple of nights away cooped up in a tent, for many, isn’t about fancy comforts, but disconnecting from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, and embracing the natural wonders the great outdoors has to offer.

That being said, there’s nothing wrong with adding a few upscale facilities to your camp set-up to transform your trip from basic to blissful. Whether it's a gadget that makes camp life easier, a device that adds a little entertainment off-grid, or something that simply brings you extra cosiness out in the wilderness, these small upgrades can make a big difference.

From high-tech comforts to clever little luxuries, here are five luxury camping gadgets you never knew you needed – until now.
