Go for it you will prob love it! I would ring the site and ask them about pitching 2 small tents on the same pitch, as some sites charge extra and some don't.

Hope you have a good time

Hi...first of all welcome to camping!

We've all been first timers, Each camp visit you learn something new and if you love it you'll soon be hooked to this web site.

You will have to check with the camp site, some will charge extra, some won't.     You won't look like pratt's at all. You'll find people are very approachable, friendly and happy to help if you need it.

Have a great time!

Hi, hallfam

A little tip before you start thinking about taking your camping gear to South of France, check out companies such as EuroCamp, Eurosites, Canvas Holidays, for a package including ferry crossing and use of a sited tent. It is a few years (OK a lot of years) since I used these companies for camping in France, but when my kids were young, we were able to get 3 week holidays for the price of 2 weeks in early September for less than the cost of booking a ferry crossing and paying campsite fees if we were to take our own gear.
