Camping shops are retailers specialising in equipment and supplies for camping, outdoor stays and related activities. Their stock commonly includes tents, groundsheets, tent pegs, mallets, sleeping bags, pillows and sleeping mats, with options suited to different group sizes, seasons and conditions. Many also sell camping furniture such as folding chairs and tables, alongside portable stoves, fuel, cookware, utensils, cool boxes and water containers. Other products may include lanterns, torches, batteries, backpacks, waterproof clothing, walking boots and outdoor accessories such as maps, compasses and first-aid kits. Some shops also stock equipment for caravanning, festivals or family trips. Staff can often explain product features and help customers choose items for their intended use; certain retailers may offer tent displays, equipment hire, repairs or servicing, although these services vary between shops.
