Hello I was just wondering when the camping season starts and ends. We normally have our first trip whitsun and our last is late August.

When do you start your camping trips and finish them? I suggested going Easter last year to be told by friends that it is far to cold to go then?!? What do you all think?

I'd  say do what you want of course.  We go when the weather is good enough.  We went in April this year for one weekend.  We've not been out since.  Fingers crossed for the weekend after this. 

We took some friends camping first weekend in June 2006.  Blazing hot days, but they all froze at night (due to poor bedding layering on their part) while we were fine.  They all refused to go with us the same time this year. 

So if you have the right equipment and plenty of layers go for it.  You can always make new friends on site. 

We went at the end of May for bank holiday...thought that was early enough for us to go...think that if we had a tent with a sig though we would probably go earlier.

Am planning on having our last trip in the first two weeks of September.

Hi DixieDancer!

Easter is normally the start of the season and End of October for closure.  However there are some people out there like myself who would go camping all year round and often do - if you check the details of a particular campsite they normally tell you their own 'seasons'.

Remember to write a review and submit it on here in the relevant section.

Our season usually starts in May, but our first trip this year was the weekend before Easter. We did take EHU & a couple of heaters though
