We started so late in the season that I haven't any experience of summer camping  Last trip was at half term - really looking forward to next summer though. (If we ever get one)

Hope next year is better for you.

Dezzie  in your gallery pics one of them (and on the tent pics thread) is called Heaven - where were you camping?  I did ask before on a thread but forgot what one it was so didn't get the answer so apologise if I missed it.

We only started camping in May and managed a couple of weekend trips in the summer, one of which ended prematurely coz the rain was so dam relentless!!! 

Probably the best weather we had was during a weekend at the end of September.  

Next year i'm going to try and get at least 7 or 8 trips in...

CAN'T WAIT!!!

Our best trip was to Anglesey 2nd week in September it was gorgeous & hot and we were facing south in a field all to ourselves - bliss!

I am so hopeful for next year, surely it will be half decent after the last two years of washouts.  We are playing it safe and taking a long weekend each month from April in the hope we'll catch that warm weekend!  However, we have got two weeks in France in August so hopefully it will all work out good!

Hi fiona

Just noticed your going to Sequoia Park in France is that near Antibes, if it is just wanted to say we had a fantastic 2 weeks there 2 years ago, it was nice a peacefull even though there was so much to do in the area, and the train that goes along the sea front is brillient for days out, to Monoco, Nice, Canne, etc.

Happy Camping

Only got going this year so had one weekend trip in first cheap tent (mid april) and then after getting a more suitable one we had a week in our so called Summer.

Hasn't put us off fortunately but would have liked to have made more use of our new tent. Lots planned for next year though so here's hoping!
