Depends on how good a sleeper the baby is as the light mornings in a tent can be a nightmare.

We camped when DS1 was 10 months old and tbh it wasn't much fun. He was fully mobile and into everything, but not old enough to to be able to turn your back for 5 minutes!
However, you do have 2 older children who can keep the baby amused. It might be fun!

I love camping and am looking forward to enjoying it this year now that the boys are 4 and 2!

Yes, I went when dd was a year and it was great. We went at Whitsun to the New Forest and she loved it.

i went with a 1 yr old and 8 yr old, they absolutely loved it, all the fresh air and running about it was great.
all the children in tents near ours loved her .she never had so much big kid attention
i'd definately recomend it- we're going again soon
