Netweather's long range forecast is changeable for the rest of July and drier and warmer than average in August.

Hope so, we go on the 19th.

Sorry if I have posted this already but what you need to do is go camping as much as possible from April until the end of September. That way you have got to hit some good weather somewhere. If you have got a reluctant hubby/wife/son/daughter you need to explain this theory to them and it might encourage them to go camping more often!!

We are going just outside Bude for 8 nights on Moday,a week ago it was a washout a few days ago it was lots of sun now sunny intervals.

We have booked and looking forward to it,the weather is what it is doing at the time you stick your head of the tent, sadly all the pre planning is thrown out the window with British weather, we go camping so we do not need to stick to schedules so we will make the best of what is thrown at us ....of course I want sun though. 

we did 2 weeks in cornwall last year and not one day was classic beachweather. did it spoil the fun did it boggery. no such thing as bad weather only innapropriate clothing. we joke that it only rained twice in the 16 days we were away. once for 7 days and once for 9 days.

metcheck currently looks good for the next few weeks in cornwall,  XC weather won't go that far. PWS forcast earlier this year has been spot on so far and they said early august would be better than late July.

did the sun hack a phone for the weather

think cosy. if your kids are cold and damp you wont be happy whatever games you have. Take fleecy blankets. Turn the bedrooms into lounging areas, plenty of torches/lamps. What do they usually play with - netbook, ds,lego? wont be any different.

If it's muddy you need a boot changing space - i use my car mats to stand on, Have fat fluffy socks or slippers,

trekking to the loo in the rain can be a pain. i can really recommend Bog in a Bag - rig up a tarp or two outside for privacy and shelter.

eat a slow release carb meal like pasta for energy and warmth at night plus have bowls of comfort snacks/chocolate

research indoor places for daytime - eden project,aquariums, museums,

keep your feet dry and warm - enjoy your trip - worst - pack up and head home
