It's me again and my vendee questions

[parno]

Beginning of June, camping in vendee, 2dc, 8 & 14, Will blankets suffice or do I need sleeping bags as well?

Sorry parno, can't help you with this one, but I'm VERY interested in your camp site in the Vendee? I'm looking for one now!

How rude... You give me nothing but want my secret information in return! I have booked a key camp site in jard sur mer. It was about £250 for a week in one of the tents including ferry travel dover to calais.

Thanks for that and not only am I not contributing, I'm also going to lurk suspiciously on this thread to see about duvets and blanket. Ta muchly!

Sleeping bags (which are lighter and easier to pack than.blankets anyway) Possibly hot water bottles. It can be bloody cold at night. Was it you who I told about Camping du Lac in Landevielle and if so why didn't you go for it ?

Omg. I am moving this over to AIBU. Imagine the outrage at your rudeness, thoughtlessness and down right cheek.

Definitely sleeping bags.

try again

I've been in the Vendee quite a bit in the last year (near the coast), I've found that even on the warmest days it can get quite cool at night.

Can I suggest sleeping bags? 'Tis what I'm going to do BUT I'm also taking along vacuum packed duvet cos I have a wonky thyroid and I'm always cold

When I went to the vendee with keycamp they had thick blankets in the tents.

I would go for blankets and sleeping bags or two duvets each to make duvet sarnies - June it will still be cool if not cold at night

Could I please ask what the weather would be like in mid-late August? I did start my own thread but nobody replied

Inga, I went mid August in 09, it was about 22 to 28 every day. Mainly sunny but a few cloudy days.

Where abouts are you going?

mid late August will be warmer than June - as ENorma says between 22-28 most days through into September

Ooooh perfect, lovely and warm but not stifling :) Haven't booked yet but we are thinking one of .the sites near St Julien.

Sites get very quiet in late August IME. We quite like it like this, but if you prefer a bit more going on then one of the larger sites might be better.

So maybe a noisier week followed by a quieter one? Sounds perfect to me! I think the sites we've seen are classed by Canvas as medium or large.

Cheers chucks for info. I think I will take vacuum duvets for the dc or possibly sleeping bags. I am so indecisive it is embarrassing (blush)
