We live in France, are regular campers. I’ve just been reading the “I love camping...” thread in AIBU and lots of posters waxing lyrical about toasting marshmallows over the campfire.
I’ve camped loads in the UK as a child (England and Scotland) and in France for the last 7 yrs. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a single campfire in a campsite! We’ve stayed at a mix, from basic / municipal / tent and toilet block in a field type places, up to big commercial seaside sites. Lots of BBQs, charcoal and gaz/electric ones, but never a campfire.
Do campsites in the UK routinely allow open fires on the ground? Doesn’t it wreck the pitch? Isn’t there are fire risk? I’m fairly sure they aren’t allowed here in France for that reason. But I’d live to do it if we ever go back to the UK for a holiday!
