i would say no last december meet it droped down to about -14C. for december in the UK i would recoment atleast a 4 seasion bag is your mattress a thermorest typ or a cap 3inch air bed if its a air bed its bad news for winter as your body wont warm that volume of air fast enough and you will get cold. i know form experiance at last years meet i used a 3 seasion bag and air mattress in a tent, as a result of that meet i got a snugpak RE for Xmas and avoid the ground if i can hammock with underquilt. hope this helps.

hi phil, as karl pointed out it was exeptionaly cold last December, under similar conditions this year i'd say you would be cold with your proposed setup. even if it were milder i would suggest you either get a warmer bag or beef it up with a second bag or duvet/blanket, with ample insulation between you and the floor.
