Things to Bring
The campsite can be cold at night. Extra layers and blankets are essential. Even though it may be warm in the cities at night during the summer months, the campsite can get quite chilly or even damp at night. Please remember to bring plenty of warm clothing & shoes, extra blankets or sleeping bags for your tent and a hot water bottle if you want that bit of extra warmth.
