If you are a user of Archies Campings on your Satnav then you will be sorry to read this message from Archie:

FOR ALL USERS OF THIS WEBSITE I HAVE BAD NEWS!

After spending almost all of my free time on the website for over 16 years, the time has come to focus on all those other things that are important to me as well.

I really enjoyed it all that time, also thanks to all the positive feedback I've received. I will definitely miss all those heartwarming e-mails.

Of course I couldn't keep the website up to date without the help of a lot of people.

I would like to thank some of them especially:

- First of all, of course, the “translators” who ensured that my campsite data could reach almost all Europeans: Val, Per, Manu. Jose, Ralph and Danny. Thanks for all these years!!

- Also Jahdroid and Sagittario who have made it possible for my data to reach an even wider range with their apps, thanks!

- Of course also the campers who regularly reported their findings about new or closed campsites, wrong positions, etc. Thank you very much for your help so that I could give everyone the right info! It is of course impossible to name everyone here, but I will make an exception for a few: …………………... They were my main suppliers of information, thank you!

- Last but not least, everyone who made it possible to keep my hobby somewhat affordable by making a donation, thank you very much too!

The website with the latest information will be permanently blacked out in mid-September. So provide your navigation device with the latest data before then! A lot has changed again!

FINALLY, A LITTLE GOOD NEWS!

JAHDROID'S ARCHIESCAMPING APPS FOR ANDROID AND APPLE STAY AND WILL ALSO BE KEEP UP TO DATE!

FOR THE SMARTPHONE AND/OR TABLET OWNERS WHO DO NOT USE THE APP YET, IT MAY BE TIME TO MAKE THE TRANSFER


The website still appears to be live, so take this opportunity to download the last ever update before it disappears completely.

Such a shame as we used it for finding sites in Europe and occasionally in the UK. Very accurate locations especially for CLs.

I thought it only covered abroad, never knew it was UK as well.
