£6 a night ?? Absolute bargain ... showers toilets AND a bar .... brilliant. Count me in chum ... I shall have a look at the web link later but i am sure it will be good. As you say, Farms are not for blokes our age ... I might get mistaken for a lame beast and be put down !

hi all

I am coming up from West Sussex so we can arrange an RVP at a suitable place near you if that's ok... one that serves petrol, coffee and sticky buns !!

Right I have spoken with the site today and we need to get a move on with this as it is a Bank Holiday weekend. They have confirmed it is £6 per person per night. We can arrive about midday on the Saturday and will have to vacate for midday on the Sunday. They are not normally too keen on groups and have a limit of groups of three people , however I have assured the lady I spoke with that we are all mature, responsible folk and that there will be no problems. She seemed to accept this, and is happy for us all to go. So thats great news.
They have also confirmed as well that all the facilities are available to the campers, so we will be able to use the bar, restaurant etc. They require a deposit of £5 per person for a key for the shower block which will be returned upon return of the key. Additionally they require payment of £6 for the camping. It all seems very reasonable to me.

Can we get names please of everyone who would like to come? I note that seven people have voted for camping, who are these seven people?
Once I know who is going I will block book if thats easier and then folk can either send me a cheque or PayPal me the money.

This could be a good laugh so lets get it sorted ;D

Rusty

Well done you !  I shall send you a cheque asap if you e mail me your address .  Nigel Cooper is the name and confirm a camp space. The site looks good ! Where did you get all that " mature responsible " stuff from ??

Yes would be good to confirm exact dates, numbers and who is arriving for the day and those that are staying overnight.

Put me down for a day visit.

opps! must have skipped a few pages there! as soon as I know the date will attend! but I do not own a tent, but may stay over if I can find a b&b local.

Arrive at the site on saturday 27th August, stay overnight if you wish and depart on Sunday 28th August. Obviously if anyone wants to arrive on the Friday thats not going to be a problem, it might even make more sense if you are travelling from further afield.

There is a hotel on site, but in all honesty you can pick a cheap tent up for a reasonable price, why not do that, you never know you'll probably use the tent again in the future.
