On the first day of meteorological Winter I set out for a "Hot tent camp" on the Woodlands Edge.
Heavy rain at first then a clearing sky meant I was in for a cold night but I stayed warm and snug in my shelter with my stove, giving out a good heat and the warm glow from the Hurricane lamp and a good book for company.
This was the perfect camp.
Hot tent, Stove, Hurricane lantern and a good book :)
I left the Gopro Hero 7 black running over night to record a Night lapse. It came out rather well:)

[@daveedwards6567]

Great video 👍 and excellent time lapse of the night into dawn ,

[@ogyxfallvanlore8511]

[@WiltshireMan]

Yes on a clear frosty night in the Winter there you will find Orion

[@garryentropy]

great when the stars appeared on the timelapse

[@WiltshireMan]

I'm getting into the Nightlapse scene garry

[@billcotton1551]

Time lapse of the night sky was awesome! That little pump is really useful.

[@annenewton5403]

Really loved this video Sandy , marvellous food and enjoyed the Timelapse sky video. Thank you, we watch Andy Kent survival and Simon in the woods.

[@TheCoopsvids]

Always a great day when I come across a night out with Sandy. Atb mate for Xmas cheers Paul 👍🏻🍻

[@tps3057]

Stunning time-lapse, video n camp sandy

[@SteveMrW]

It would not be a Wiltshire Man video without Sandy’s cook ups.

[@WiltshireMan]

LOL I need to get a bit more adventurous with the cuisine Steve :)

[@SteveMrW]

@@WiltshireMan it's just good to see you getting out and about............Have you done any flying recently?

[@lesliewoodmobile]

Proper food Sandy Spot on

[@alanwetherelt7155]

Yet another great watch Sandy . Wonderful that you have access to the woods and the nearby fields

[@browsman2328]

Greetings from Northern California. For me two of the most relaxing sounds are rain on the roof and a cat purring. We are finally getting some rain now after a hot, fiery and smoky summer, it was awful. Anyway always interesting for me to see camping across the pond, thanks for the vid.

[@WiltshireMan]

Yes I heard about the wild fires, glad you are finally getting some rain

[@ifadams2908]

Love your tenting vlogs, always interesting, so thank you, Sandy

[@techguy9023]

Horace Kephart had spent a lot of time in what became the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. I saw one of his tents and folding candle lantern in the Mountain Heritage Center museum once. It looked similar to your pyramid tent but of lighter material. He had been a librarian in St. Louis at the turn of the century I believe and left his wife and daughters to live in the woods. Probably a lot to that story.

[@WiltshireMan]

Yes I am quite familiar with Horace Kephart but never knew about his personal life ref wife and family:)

[@raymondlawrence4080]

Brilliant as always....keep good work up

[@foxglove8836]

:-) I always find food tastes better when you camp out, Nice watching the sky at night :-)

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks, I would love to go to a Dark sky location and do a night lapse

[@jeetts59]

The time laps sequence was wonderful

[@brightantwerp]

Lovely!

[@Wessexmud]

A great adventure-I am sure you enjoyed this-Every man needs a hobby or two or three or four ?-Thank you Sandy A1 video 👍

[@maskedavenger2578]

Great set up & stove ,scran looked very tasty & made me feel hungry .Regular home from home ,snug as a bug in a rug 👍

[@stephenszalay]

Another great vid. I take my hat off to you all who do this in winter. I’d be bored silly by 1800hrs.

[@WiltshireMan]

I had a hot stove and a good book so all was good:)

[@TonyKitchen471]

Very enjoyable watching that and I find it real relaxing Thanks

[@DanOpdal]

Thank you for sharing your adventure!

[@acimbobby]

making it look so relaxed and easy at your camp with some nice warmth from the stove Sandy. So glad to see you out there. Don't know where all the wildlife goes and the birds too.

[@WiltshireMan]

All the wildlife is all around Robert, It has the sense mostly to stay outside of our bubbles of perception

[@expat0149]

The time-lapse was great :)

[@peteblackwell3]

Great video Sandy . The time laps is superb, love the night sky and stars and then the cloud came in looked amazing , followed by the morning blue sky. Wow that stove!

[@ellisc.foleyjr9778]

Another great outing/campout Sandy. you are definitely making good use of the new stove for sure. I love Stew, so you know my sentiments on your meal. Table was a neat asset also. thanks for taking me along. 73 Sandy. HP T CUDTL OM! de Ellis WA1RKS

[@WiltshireMan]

Table will make a great /p rig stand

[@jeetts59]

That tiny pump looks fantastic

[@WiltshireMan]

The pump makes things just a bit easier Harold

[@markdriver7911]

brilliant .

[@alansparrow6396]

Nice one Sandy

[@davidpayne8413]

Splendid!

[@anroadking]

Love a bowl of stew (Or Scouse) with a bit of pickled Red Cabbage

[@WiltshireMan]

Yum that sounds nice

[@gusbi1]

As always excellent viewing thank you

[@rogerwilliams2902]

Cracking video again and that night sky looked beautiful !.

[@robertchase3670]

You create a very cosy camp Sandy. Are you familiar with the old firewood poem? Beech logs burn bright and clear If logs are kept for a year. Chestnut is only good they say If for long it's laid away. But Ash new or ash old Is fit for a queen with a crown of gold. Birch and fir logs burn fast Blaze up bright but do not last. Elmwood burns like a churchyard mould Even the flames are very cold. Poplar gives a bitter smoke Fills your eyes and makes you choke. Applewood will scent the room with an incense like perfume. Oaken logs if dry and old Keeps away the winter cold. But Ash wet or Ash dry A king shall warm his slippers by. Cheers.

[@WiltshireMan]

Yes Robert thats an old one, but good to read it again:)

[@whuds1159]

Home from home, Nice setup

[@anfieldroadlayoutintheloft5204]

good vi of you out camping keep up the good vids

[@budrose3218]

Ditto- love the timelapse night sky, very enjoyable ta.

[@jimrowland6089]

Looks like a nice camp Sandy. I agree with Kephart on most things. I don't know if I have that book but I might. I reduced my library considerably a couple years ago. Not sure if that was a good idea but I was completely out of space. I'm off to see if I can catch some trout for dinner. Cheers Sandy.

[@TheAncientBiker]

Even as a vegetarian that stew looked amazing and I could almost smell it. :-)

[@grumpysprout3505]

Superb!...............just love your videos 👍👍👍

[@davidkerrychubb1]

Great to see you out there living life to the full. Best wishes dave chubb

[@fraross6212]

Just found this lovely camping blog and that starry night timelapse is fantastic. Good health to you and keep em coming. Cheers

[@twintwotastic3743]

Another great vid + cheers for going the extra mile with the footage of the memory in the chimney role out :)

[@WiltshireMan]

No problem:)

[@ACHowes]

What a wonderful video Sandy. Very therapeutic when I’m stuck indoors isolating. I can’t wait to get back out, thanks for the enthusiasm boost! Kind regards.

[@WiltshireMan]

Hope your isolation will soon be over

[@Haven2U]

I think to many don't realize the efficiency of a kerosene lantern. It also provides a wonderful ambience to the dark night that the modern flashlights/torches don't give to the camping experience. My fondest memories are camping with my dad , who always carried a lantern into the woods. Thanks for the nice video, sandy.

[@jeffjones6107]

Enjoyed watching the video relaxing and laid back keep them coming 👍

[@timlodge8267]

Another great video, very enjoyable……

[@Wyowanderer]

You're living large, Sandy. 73.

[@WiltshireMan]

Thankyou:)

[@neilwilkinson5415]

Such a good film Sandy. I loved the time lapse imagery.

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Neil

[@billhambelton7698]

Loving the night sky Sandy. Seeing Orion rising really means winter to me. Cant wait to see its return every year.

[@WiltshireMan]

Orion will be in the night sky now till early spring Bill. There is an old saying, when you can see Orion then thats the time to go hunting

[@patrickshaw7983]

A cosy camp that. Nightlapse was superb.

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Patrick, Now I have learned a few things I hope to go to a dark sky location to film the stars:)

[@markb3180]

I really enjoy your camping vlogs, nice one Wiltshire Man

[@BrianthatiscalledBrian]

That stew looked amazing! Loved the time lapse too. Thanks, Sandy. 👍🙂🏕️

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Brian glad you enjoyed the video:)

[@TheNon-DigArtist]

Another great video, and that was the best timelaps yet!

[@brianoutdoorlife7788]

Hello sandy, another excellent video as usual. Thank you. I look forward to the next instalment. 👍😁❤

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Brian glad you enjoyed it

[@bushlore21]

Excellent video Sandy!! Well done on the timelapse, enjoyed that!! 🙌👍 You’re camp had all the bells and whistles, you keep it simple, great bit of kit all around…!! You see, happy days!!🤠 See you on the next one!!👊

[@WiltshireMan]

Simple camps are always the best:)

[@StitchyBee]

Ahhh, heavenly to watch Sandy, perfect after a long stressful week. Thank you for taking us with you. Cheryl.

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Cheryl, This was a really relaxing and cosy warm camp thanks to having the small stove, but just outside beyond the tent walls the air was an icy cold. It's so nice to be warm when out camping in Winter :)

[@PaulOutdoors]

Superb Sandy. So many highlights as always that get the outdoor juices flowing. The time-lapse nightscape is magical...the appearance of Orion like the Swifts, Swallows and Martins of spring are two of my yearly highlights. Kudos for spotting the flattened area that may, as you suggest have been used for a rest up by a roe deer. Keep on keeping on. Paul 👍😊

[@WiltshireMan]

I was lucky to get a break in the clouds Paul to allow Orion to be seen. He is a lovely constellation. Orion the Hunter

[@graemeshaw9716]

Great video. You are living the dream 😂. Thanks again. 👍

[@Andyb2379]

One thing I’ve always admired about your camps is the changing seasons. I often wonder which you like best as every season seems to offer something special. Great set up Sandy & good eating. Keep warm, Andy

[@WiltshireMan]

Hi Andy, to tell you the truth I couldn't pick a favourite, I guess the time of year I dislike the most is when it is oppressively too hot and you can't escape the heat, otherwise all seasons have their joys Sandy

[@dominiclincoln4769]

Another great video! I wish I was there with you. I need this kind of break! All the luck to you.

[@jayxrt385]

Love your videos Sandy such a gentleman you are.

[@WiltshireMan]

Thankyou

[@rialobran]

Great time-lapse WW, nice little set up you have going on there now :)

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Si, it is so nice being warm on a cold winters night

[@magneto263]

Great video Sandy. The timelapse was especially good. Good choice to camp on the edge of the wood.

[@WiltshireMan]

Glad you enjoyed it Graham

[@mikehurley5052]

I watched this expecting to see you roughing it, boy was i wrong. That was some luxury camp.

[@WiltshireMan]

It was real cosy at camp Mike:)

[@LundysWildcampBushcraft]

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Sam

[@Daxxii1966]

The time lapse with Orion panning across the sky followed by the cloud and clearing to morning was outstanding - thank you so much!

[@WiltshireMan]

Glad you enjoyed it Daxx, Fitting knife scales today and possibly leatherwork this PM

[@Graham_lee]

Your food always gets me going looks so delicious, loving the stove bet its so toasty in there. The time lapse sequences and choice of music bloody amazing.

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Graham glad you enjoyed this video

[@davewalton2358]

Brilliant, Sandy! What a way to live... Between you, Andy and Simon I find a way to escape from the stresses of life and unwind for a while. Thank you for sharing these adventures with us, I'm keen to get out and do some motorbike camping (if I ever get enough time off work!). Keep them coming and I'll keep watching. Cheers!

[@WiltshireMan]

Hi Dave I too watch Andy and Simons channel, both are excellent. I'm pleased your enjoying my videos too :) Hope to be out camping again soon:)

[@normajean7332]

This is epic!!thankyou

[@TheMendipman]

Best camping video I've seen for ages Sandy. Just right. Love to all, Noel

[@WiltshireMan]

Ah glad you enjoyed it Noel, the tent and stove make for a wonderful shelter. Cosy and warm and a good book too. What more can one ask for :)

[@caroleperry4343]

Wonderful video once again. The timelapse film was beautiful!! As I've said before, I'm not a camper in any sence of the word but I do enjoy watching your videos. With all your " mod cons " I think you should call them Wild Glamping!! Lol, thanks for sharing your adventures x

[@WiltshireMan]

Haa yes Carole with this stove it makes it very cosy

[@chrissteer7333]

Hi Sandy these camping outdoor videos just get better always enjoy them can’t wait till the next one , Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@WiltshireMan]

Merry Christmas to you too Chris, I can't wait for some nice snow now:)

[@himydad1499]

Starry starry night.... Nice to see Orion and Thaurus rise in the sky. That timelaps took your VID to a new level ✨

[@WiltshireMan]

Yes it was a Starry night, but my location doesn't have the darkest sky which you need to see the fainter stars and the Milky way

[@maryanderson9395]

Great video Sandy, so relaxing to watch and so interesting ,thank you for posting , keep well mate

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Mary glad to know you enjoyed the video, Thanks

[@peterwrench4416]

That rain on the tent, the warmth of the stove and a nice cuppa. You're absolutely spot on, it doesn't get any better than that.

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks 👍Sometimes its just the simple pleasures in life that mean the most

[@MadDogsandEnglishman]

Nice video there brother, enjoying it. Time lapse is good, keep doing them.

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Oxford

[@LFH02]

Great for the mind and sole. thanks for sharing.

[@WiltshireMan]

It sure was Oz, I really enjoyed the warmth of the stove

[@michaelnoakes8566]

Your style is so peaceful; creating the atmosphere of us the viewer being on the trip with you. Thank you for sharing the stories and your personal knowledge of things with us. Have a great day brother.

[@WiltshireMan]

Thats very kind Michael, Thankyou

[@ghostpatriot2370]

I’m a big fan of your camp videos. I find them very relaxing. Thanks for another great video and hopefully you can bring the dog along next time. Stay safe and dry

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks, unfortunately I can't take a dog with me during the shooting season, my dogs are both rescue dogs and would need a lot of control

[@jonjones754]

Fantastic Sandy..I loved it. Cheers Jon

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Jon:)

[@clivegreenall309]

Good Day Sandy. Thanks for sharing this camping trip. Your time-lapse shots were so quiet and peaceful. I could almost smell the fresh chill of the morning. Take care and have an awesome day. Regards from S Africa

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Clive

[@lprpallet]

Back in the pheasant wood by the looks. Enjoyable again to watch. I like your setup, I have the same stove and almost the same tent, the smokey hut from One Tigris. I recently got the Hammock hot tent shelter from them, also One Tigris huge amount of space in there and also fits a woodstove if you like.

[@WiltshireMan]

Hi Rene I have seen that Hammock tent, it's very big. The Smokey hut is similar to the Iron wall just a different door design

[@EventyrsorenDenmark]

Wonderfull video and Beautiful nature. Enjoyed this video very Much. Thanks for sharing this great video

[@WiltshireMan]

Thankyou
