Are we mad to go camping in September?

[SixtyFootDoll]

I have booked a weekend in the Forest of Dean on 24/09.
Will it be freeeeeezing?
Am quite new to camping and jjust survived a week in Cornwall - had to use a heater one evening though.

I hope not! I'm wanting to go to Sherwood Forest in September.

I'm going camping the same weekend and will hopefully get another one in during October. Hot water bottles & loads of layers.

I'm a cub leader, and will be camping in October... you are not mad, but a decent 3 season sleeping bag and sleeping in tracky bottoms, a fleece and possibly a hat will make your weekend more bearable!

soft wooly hat - good idea :)
and a flask

Agree with layers and you already have a heater. Hat yes! No you're not mad, dp and me camped in March and there was frost on the tent But it's a small vango halo and we were cosy inside

we're thinking about camping October half term in our bell tent.

September should be ok if you take plenty of blankets and warm clothing. I am a seasoned camper, having camped in snow but September is my latest - I will not go in October.

I think we may go away on the 24th too.

SFD how big's your tent?

It this one

That looks great Hope it goes well for you and you're not too cold, I think you'll be fine though.
