Warm enough in September??? Obviously you guys are not Welsh !

September camping means taking the thermals and hot water bottles (as well as the waterpoofs) but no EHU needed surely.....if you have one then you are gonna be toastie!

I've now got camps booked for September, October, November and New Year's Eve, but will only succumb to the EHU for November and December/January......well OK for all camps between Nov and March lol!

Thermals under your PJ's - tis not pretty or sexy (just as well as too much trouble to get out of the bleedin things to do anything), but they keeps ya warm!

With an EHU you can have a fan heater to help keep you warm.  I would go for it.  We are hoping to get away on 23rd September and who knows we might even get an indian summer

We have camped into October without EHU. Just took lots of extra bedding and clothes for night time. I find the shortening days more of a problem than the cold TBH.

We are camping for Halloween,  go for it.

Plenty of warm layers and good sleeping bags and you'll be fine.   Sometimes it can be quite mild then, September really isn't that late.
