Maybe your husband would consider a honeymoon in a teepee? All the luxury of a hotel but still that canvassy smell (mmmmmm). These look lovely:

Tipis in Wales

We didn't get a honeymoon - I was "slightly" pregnant but are hoping to get a trip away for our tenth anniversary next year without the kids. My parents had their honeymoon under canvas in Yorkshire in February. They managed to get all their gear in an MGB too!

Many congratulations & wishing you loads of luck.

Congratualtions

My husband and I have only been married for a year - it is a very exciting time

You tell him he is a very luck man to have a wife who wants to go camping on her honeymoon

Then say to him that your second choice is two weeks in the Maldives

Bet you could get him to agree to the campsite of your choice then!

All good wishes to you both

Hi Clare and many congratulations on your engagement x

I would have honeymooned under canvas, but I didn't know the joys of camping in those days. Have spent our last 2 anniversaries in the tent and probably every one for the next few years too. Usually falls in the last few days of the school summer holidays so have kids in tow too!

Congratulations to you both!!! That's great news. I know a girl through work who is a very happy camper and she's going to take her honeymoon in a luxury canvas lodge!! It keeps her OH happy and it looks absolutely amazing!! Very posh camping if you ask me. Here's the link to have a mooch!! It'll be a bit more than a £15 pitch though!!! LOL!

All the best for your future together 17

It always rains on tents. Rainstorms will travel thousands of miles, against prevailing winds for the opportunity to rain on a tent.

We have just decided to tie the knot on 7th August next year, I would love to spend our stagmoon (combining to save money) in a tent, but we are going to Spain with friends and think we'll need air con at that time of year!

Congrats on the engagement, we aren't married but I am sure if we ever did we would end up honeymooning in the van or the tent,

Congrats!!

I would have been up for a honeymoon in a tent but when we got married I was in the middle of exams so OH had the week after the wedding off and I had the following week!!

I guess not many people honeymoon on separate weeks do they!!??

I don't think I'd want to go camping for my honeymoon as I want to  go to Wells-next-the-sea and there is only one campsite which is expensive and not that tent friendly.

I think we will end up in Manor Farm Guest House where we have been a couple of times, and where we stayed before OH asked me to marry him on the beach the next day!
