That's very useful Skep. The answer for my region is April at the earliest with May being the best month. Of course our climate has changed a bit since the year 2000 but it's still an interesting read.

My experience of the last few years camping is that early summer has the best time and the summer gets wetter as it goes on. I went camping on the last weekend in June which is the weekend my kids break up from school. We had 35 degrees and we found the heat difficult to bear. Then it went downhill as the summer continued, being wet and warm. That was three years ago, and the next summer was the same. I got so sick of the previous years rain that I went to England instead for my main summer break in July 2010- and guess what - it rained!

Useful link.

Camping in the UK is always going to be a bit of a gamble on the weather, even if you go in July.

I'm sorry, but I have to disagree with this.

It's too soon to tell if our climate has changed.

The weather patterns may have changed, but climate is something that changes over tens of thousands of years, not dozens. In 10,000 years - probably after the next ice age - we'll know if the climate in the last decade has changed or not.
