I believe we should all boycott the "no campfire and no barbeque" campsites this would send the strongest message to them.Keep up the good work.Message received 28-01-2008 21:30 from Trabbi
Just read Ian Nairns article about your website in 'Bushcraft magazine'. Had to look it up straight away. Good to see there are so many like-minded people out there!Message received 25-01-2008 20:55 from lordsteph
Thank god for proper camping and proper campers, having been a camper {proper} for 30+ years i was losing hope of finding likeminded people {other than my friends and family} who enjoy a camp fire. It seems that i am not alone , Thank youMessage received 13-11-2007 03:51 from fallingrain
You guys are fantastic. This site is just what I've been looking for !. I go camping regularly at ALL times of the year and camping without a fire isn't the same at all. Fantastic wonderful. I'm chuffed to bits I've discovered your site.Message received 12-09-2007 19:52 from Dave Cox
Hi,
I wanted to say that this site has renewed my faith in the 'purist' camper….I have travelled the world over and have only found this 'dislike' of fires on campsites only in the UK. I know and realise that there are practicalities involved, but It pains me to see BBQ's allowed but not open fires. Campsite owners can always stipulate fires in BBQ's only.I hope your site turns this trend around and lets us all go back to burnt marshmallows, coming home smelling of natural wood smoke and the joy of the outdoors..
Keep it real, Keep it open

Great idea. A forum would be a good one too and I think they are quite easy to set up. I spend time in the states where you can camp and cook almost anywhere including town parks. Here in the UK there is always a few of us camping and looking for fire camps. We are currently looking at the "Dutch Oven" craze that was initially started by the pioneers and is huge in the states. Maybe we could get a UK "cook off" going. Andy and ClareMessage received 01-05-2007 05:00 from Via Email
FANTASTIC! Thanks so much for putting this together! Camping is all about getting back to nature, and a more primal time and in my opinion, its nearly impossible to do that without a campfire. Im a member of the Camping and Caravanning club and I just sent them an email asking them why I cant seem to find any sites with them that allow campfires and this was their reply:>I can confirm that unfortunately we do not allow camp fires on our Sites
>nor do we allow Barbeques. This is due to our Health and Safety Policy
>which has been put in place for the safety of our campers.
No campfires and no BBQs!?!!?!? How is that camping? I may have to not renew my membership next year…
Anyway, keep fighting the good fight.
Have you thought about any ways that we can lobby to make sure sites keep their campfire privileges, or how to convince more sites to allow them?

Fantastic! camping with a campfire is great, finding sites that allow it, however is a problem. Problem solved!!! Hoping to read reviews about the campsites once the summer comes.Message received 29-03-2007 12:49 from Lisa
