Best Trailer Tent/Folding Camper

If you’ve ever found yourself torn between the comfort of a campervan and the simplicity of a tent, a trailer tent is the perfect middle ground – and the Campmaster One Motion is a great example of why this category continues to grow in popularity. 

Trailer tents offer a mix of space, convenience and towing ease. They’re compact on the road, economical to run, and far less intimidating to tow than a caravan, making them ideal for newcomers as well as seasoned campers looking to travel lighter. 

Crucially, they open up into something far more substantial than a standard tent, often with proper beds, insulation and generous living space.

The Campmaster One Motion (around £9,000) takes these advantages and refines them beautifully. As the name suggests, its standout feature is the clever one-motion set-up.

Thanks to its alloy-framed Z-style opening and stainless-steel gas struts, pitching is quick and fuss-free.

Inside, it delivers genuine comfort. A king-size bed with a darkened bedroom ensures a good night’s sleep, while the insulated roof and floor help extend the camping season.

Practical touches such as mozzie nets, ventilation throughout and the Easy Pack system (which allows access to luggage without fully unpacking) make a real difference on longer trips. It’s also refreshingly future-friendly.

Weighing just 300kg with a low towing profile, it’s suitable for smaller cars and even EVs, and can be manoeuvred by hand on site – something many campers will appreciate.

In short, the Campmaster One Motion, available exclusively from Camperlands, combines smart engineering with real-world usability.

Whether you’re new to trailer tents or upgrading from a basic set-up, this is a thoughtfully designed, highly accessible option that genuinely earns its award.
