Hi all. We are off to Fforest Fields for the first time on Thursday morning till Tuesday and getting a little concerned about the weather turning bad after a day or so. We will have 3 kids with us 10,6and4 and wondered what things we can still do around the site in times of bad weather. Would hate to just sit inside the tent needlessly. Have searched through threads but couldn't find anything I was looking for. We have never been before so wouldn't know our away around, hopefully there are still some nice walks do-able in bad weather?

Put on a waterproof and get out in it.

Every day is a gift..That's why it's called the present.
Nostalgia is not what it used to be.

just come back form quite a wet week at fforest fields. used the dvd player and stickers, colouring books, (toddler aged 2) when it rained but then we just thought sod it, put on our waterproofs and went hunting for puddles and slugs in the rain! loved it!
(we then moved onto another site which i shall not name but had clubhouse, pool, entertainment etc we drove in and drove back out again half an hour later. we spent six hours in the car and now at home wishing ff could have kept us for a few more days!)
