Thanks all for your comments. Couple of answers. Teeny all I can tell you is its a plastic table cloth bought in some cheap shop in Faversham. Mucker of course I read others post on your threads that's why I put pics of the Slaughters on here. Start with Lower Slaughter then walk through the fields for about a mile to Upper Slaughter. You wont be disappointed. As for the extension leads its done on a first come first served basis but as I say they did have a number of them. As for the pitch yes we were in the middle which we liked (a bit more private) Although we did walk round all the pitches and making a note of which ones we would like on our return. Geoff
I live in the Cotwolds and never knew that campsite existed!! Will def have to try it out now though.
We are very lucky around here, there are a lot of good campsites and beautiful places to camp. After many years of travelling long distances to camp we now spend shorter breaks and weekends around here enjoying whats on our doorstep :)
Winchcome C&CC site just outside Cheltenham is also very good and very easy to get to places like bourton from there too.
As muckerette has worked the last two weekends, the plan has been to chill at home this coming weekend, as we are away the weekend after (camping, of course) with family members, to celebrate Muckerette's birthday.
So imagine my surprise, when I picked her up from work today, only for her to announce "Sod it! let's go this weekend aswell!"
"Somewhere new?", says I.
Imagine my surprise, when she replied... "No, same again.... that place in Bourton".
So we walks in.... she pops kettle on, I make that call..... Imagine my disappointment, but no surprise, that they are fully booked!
I blame the bloody weather! Never had this problem in bloody February!
Anyway, gotta go..... need to carry on searching!
Adult only, pref.... as the following weekend is likely to be hectic! :-)
Sorry to hear that mate hope our posts didn't cause the rush there. To think this time last week we had most of the site to ourselves. Is Somerset too far for you? I could recommend a gem of a place adults only. I would guess another hour on your journey. Good luck anyway.
Thanks mate, but yeah, a bit too far for a weekend. Not expecting to get away from work until 1pm ish, so by the time we are fully loaded up and showered, I don't fancy much more than two hours away.
Looking at Chester area now, but have a few calls to make tomorrow.
And, yes, we probably haven't done ourselves any favours here!
Amazing family weekend with old steam engines, classic car displays, market stalls, and full catering and bar. And camping on site - Save £25 by booking in advance.
