Earlier this month, the couple - who star in hit show 22 Kids &; Counting with their bumper brood - took some of their youngest kids on a motorhome holiday to Edinburgh.

They were visiting friends near the capital and planned to wild camp for a night.

Hailing the trip a huge success, they said: "Our first wild camping night in Betsy, our motorhome, went brilliantly.

"We were so cosy and we woke up to the most stunning views"

In a documenting the visit, the family could be seen cosied up in beds in the motorhome, watching films on a TV and using a fitted cooker.

But some Scots have all had the same complaint about their trip - insisting that enjoying the luxuries a motorhome has to offer is not wild camping.

One said: "There's that phrase again - 'wild camping’….in a huge motorhome. 

"This tiny country can’t accommodate the volume of people seeking to park overnight off grid and call it camping.

A second wrote: “Wild camping!!!!? Ridiculous”, accompanied by laughing emojis.

A third added: "Like it or not, 'wild camping' is what 'parking your motorhome anywhere other than a campsite' has become known as."

And a fourth fumed: "Wild Camping - aye right."

Earlier this month, Sue and her hubby Noel delighted fans after confirming that their popular reality TV series, 22 Kids and Counting, will be returning for a fourth season.

The parent duo announced the news on Instagram and shared a post where they thanked their loyal fans for their ''love and support''.

They went on to say how the family will enjoy a 'well deserved break,' before allowing the cameras into their Morecambe-based home once again.

In the post, they penned: "We just want to say a huge thank you for all the love and support you’ve shown throughout our series, we truly appreciate each and every comment and message we’ve received so thank you.

"So chuffed to say our programme was no.1 on ch5 most Sundays and doing really well on my5 every week with it being the most watched programme on my5.

"We are currently having a well earned little break from filming before heading into filming series 4 which we are very excited about."

Sue and Noel are parents to Chris, 33, Sophie, 28, Chloe, 27, Jack, 25, Daniel, 23, Luke, 21, Millie, 21, Katie, 19, James, 18, Ellie, 17, Aimee, 16, Josh, 15, Max, 13, Tillie, 12, Oscar, 10, Casper, nine, Hallie, seven, Phoebe, six, Archie, five, Bonnie, three, and Heidie, two.
