hi Everyone , going camping on tuesday, managed to get time off work, and was wondering how many of you prefer to camp mid week and are sites quite full? We have always camped long weekends, bank hols etc cant remember going during week before. This was booked ages ago after weather cancelled the last one!

You'll probably find the the situation of the site will dictate how busy it is mid week in the school holidays.  If you stay in a holiday resort then it will probably be full but on a 'local' country site there will be many vacant pitches.  I stayed away from the coast at a site in Sussex this weekend which was full on Saturday night but on Sunday morning 70 percent of the tents were packing up to leave.  Although I enjoy sites that are fairly quiet, like you, I like to have some company to give the place a bit of atmosphere.  Might as well camp in the back garden otherwise!

I will second that!

We only camp at weekends either out of season or on Adult Only sites. I love kids, but after 22 years of them I need a break
