grobag, onsie and usual blanket should do the trick, our son is the same age and went on his irst trip last month, we used a vango nitestar baby sleeping bag with a rolled up blanket in the bottom and he stayed warm even though the rest of us froze.
im sure he will love it.
I also bought a couple large bottles of ready made milk and used tablets to sterilise bottles in an old ice cream container worked well.
and a couple spare blankets so he could crawl around without getting damp and muddy.
was our pracice camp before france in august, luckily our 6 year old is a great help and fairly independent.

Hi boo, we took our 18 month old last year - I think its all about layers to be honest. Also some nights can be decidedly chilly and some rather muggy - most nights we put him in a fleecy onesie - and a vango nitestar mini sleeping bag - he kept managing to get out of it though (he slept on a double air bed with one of his siblings). I would also recommend a travel cot as they are much more suitable for a 7 month old. Maybe try a higher tog grow bag? and layer up with a blanket? Also if youre on ehu then you can put a heater on low all night provided it has a cut off switch if it falls :) good luck :) itll be fun haha :)
