It's bound to be chilly at night - we even found it cold at night in August last year!!! As long as you are prepared, it won't be a problem. Just take lots of layers, a hot water bottle and a good sleeping bag - or even your own duvet from home! You may not need them, but at least they'll be on hand in case you need them.

Go and enjoy yourselves! (Get a double sleeping bag - I'm sure that will encourage hubby to keep going camping!)
