It's such a budget-friendly way to fill the summer days, and now we are looking into staying the night too so we can wake up in the heart of the forest and have a whole day of adventures to look forward to.
The Guardian newspaper have been promoting this campaign, but if you've missed the last 2 weekend supplements, don't worry you can get all the information online on their interactive micro-site . Check it out to plan your summer activities and enter to win your own forest holiday.

I was only chatting with a matey about going camping next year - I loved it as a child and am sure my daughter would too... roll on next year :) x
ReplyDeleteIt's not too late this year! We're checking the calender to see how many weekends we are free to cram some canvas time in before it gets too cold! x
Deletewe love camping so will definately look into this! thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteGreat Otilia x
DeleteI love the idea of camping :) xxx
ReplyDeleteHave you tried it? We're newish to it, but love it.
DeleteOh I have this sitting on my windowsill. Will read it tonight.
ReplyDeleteWe really ought to do this as we spent quiet a bit on a tent that would fit the whole family in. Thank you for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteWe are looking to upgrade to a bigger tent! Hope you can get out in the forest. x
DeleteDo you know, these past few days I have been looking at a bell tent. There is something wrong with me perhaps, but I am so into the idea of camping right now. At home would be even nicer! :)
ReplyDeleteWhen I went to a festival this summer I was looking with envy at some beautiful bell tents.
DeleteEvery child should spend a night in the forest - quite a few adults would benefit too!
ReplyDeleteYup! I hope to fit it in before term starts, if not it will be a weekend away.
DeleteWe did this very thing last week as you know and loved it! Really good facilities and value - this has reminded me to get my post up!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had such a great time, your write up about it is fabulous.
DeleteShhh *whispers* I have never been camping. Is there somewhere to charge your phone and do they have WiFi trees? ;)
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean Carolin, I get a bit twitchy without my social media fix, but 3G is pretty much everywhere and you could always get one of those solar or wind-up phone chargers!
DeleteWe're yet to take our two camping, but we're talking more and more about doing so soon. Maybe I just need to book somewhere and make it happen? As fellow forest lovers I'd love the idea of camping there. I may have to investigate further. Thanks for the tips! x
ReplyDeleteI think they'd LOVE it! Sometimes you just need to seize the moment :0)
DeleteMy two love camping although me not so much ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of camping in a forest though - that may have to go on our list!
