Are you sure there isn't somewhere else you could go, where better drainage means the pitches are still open?
I can't imagine all campsites are full at this time, with all the rotten weather we've been having?

We have some very fussy campers, toilets, showers etc have to be spotless and the St Neots Cambridgeshire site is second to none. A couple of the families only ever camp once a year when we all get together. I'm sure if I tried I could find a site but I think the will is not there for a couple of the families...lol

At least you are all still having a get together, and on the plus side you wont have to dry out all the soggy tents! Have a good weekend

That's a shame...But a good compromise....Kids get to camp...Adults can have a drink and bleather...Sorted!!!

Tent drying is not a problem for me as I have a fair bit of space to put tents up at work...lol and I wish we were all still going but for some I think it has been a blessing. Strange thing is its not rained all day and I bet we only get a few showers over the next few days. Saying that the campsite really is right on the bank of a good sized river that floods the site quite often...lol

Hi Gary,
Have you tried Hertford C&CC? Big, flat and well drained... This was the first site we went to (we're not very far away from you!) and we wanted something local in case it all went wrong! Been back every year for the 1st camp of the season so far - Not got there this year yet though...
We went to St Neots for the first night away with our dog - Same reason, local enough to get home if needed.

sorry to hear about your weekend Gary Thought we were going to end up in a river while pitching this afternoon, thankfully the rains stopped here now. On the plus side though the Eternity is definately waterproof though... Hopefully tomorrow will be dryer.....
