    Good review. I’ve never slept in a hammock but after watching several CZcamsrs, I’m tempted to give it a go. ☺️

      Thanks Rachel, glad you enjoyed it. I love being on the fells in my tent, but hammock camping is my favourite, I would definitely recommend you try it out, thanks for watching and commenting, atb Paul 🙏🏕️🏕️🏕️😁

    Can you get a diagonal lay in the hammock, and whats the lay like with the cocoon attached?

    • @ACumbrianladoutdoors
      @ACumbrianladoutdoors  Před dnem +1

      @petermport yes you can get a diagonal lay no problem at all, and as the cocoon is not load bearing at all it does not affect the lay. This is still my go to winter hammock setup after all these years 👍 atb Paul 🙏 🏕🏕🏕😁

      Cheers for the timely reply,
      I am only 5'10 but im a broad lad, I have a onewind 11ft and a carinthia defence 4 sleeping bag which will do for quite a while but not sure in the colder winter months​@ACumbrianladoutdoors

    The cocoon looks awesome. I got a Softie 6 sleepingbag and do you think i could sleep in that cocoon and the Softie 6 inside the cocoon down to freezing or do i need something warmer?

    • @ACumbrianladoutdoors
      @ACumbrianladoutdoors  Před 6 měsíci +2

      The Cocoon is brilliant , the softie 6 has a comfort rating of 0 Celsius, so you could probably manage sub zero camps just, have a look at my recent vids where I've been using a heated gilet to heat my sleeping bag, it works very well, atb Paul 🙏🏕🏕🏕😁

    I'm hearing from people that you need an 11 foot hammock with a diagonal lay. Would this cocoon fit a longer hammock?

    • @ACumbrianladoutdoors
      @ACumbrianladoutdoors  Před rokem +2

      The longer hammock will indeed give you a more comfortable diagonal lay, however I'm 6ft 3 and am very comfortable in this winter setup, I dare say it would fit a slightly longer hammock, but not by much 👍 atb Paul 🙏 🏕🏕🏕😁

    Great video bud,that hammock looked proper easy to set up, shame about no bug net attached. I be getting one soon but still don't know what one to get. Very well presented video. Look forward to your future content 👍

      I’d be tempted to sneak up on you daz n drag both zips to the foot end for a laugh and also revenge for when we were younger n you stuffed me in a sleeping bag and tied it shut with a juditsu belt before leaving the house to go to your friends
