For a camp, use a lean to type, not a regular tent. They used to be common and a preferred means of cold weather camping. The regular canvas lean to tent was made with ends. The modern fibre glass type sheets with the grommets in them wil do great. a 10 x 12 size should be good for two people.
Take a good supply of light rope , use a ridge pole across the front, up about six feet, then tuck the ends around.
Your fire, for cooking and heat, at least for drying clothes, is made in front of the lean to, so the heat reflects in. Sleep with your feet in the low end.
For your fire, very important to have a brow log, between the fire and the lean to. Use a green tree, or a heavily waterlogged log. at least 8 inches across, if you can get one. This allows for using a frying pan, with your hands sheltered behind the log.
Use a green pole above teh fire to hang cooking pails and pots on.
Take some raw potatoes and onions, bacon, whatever. If you are good at cooking over an open fire, you can make most anything you want, like pan cakes, stews, bannock, etc, etc.
