thanks guys, Jen, its near to Tenby babe, we could go to Oakwood for the day, that might be fun. I will get the website and post a link, I think we may need to start booking if we decide on that one, it may fill up fast, I am still holding out hope for a hidden gem that is more central for everyone though ..

[carolfoy]

poor Ian, if he could see me in a wetsuit he'd die laughing!

 

[Chilly]

Well we've got our own tent and a spare one (small) if someone wants to borrow it, and we are in the middle of the country ish so anywhere suits us really as long as its not too far north.

 

[The Fetherstons]

Hope you can get something sorted soon

 

[Tammy Stringer]

Jules

We really appreciate all your hard work.

Let us know what you can find out - from what I remember that Narbeth site looked OK when you said about it before.

I'm sure something will be suitable somewhere - damn that tipi man

Hi Hun, last year I think he charged around £160.00 for the three nights

 

[saratogagirl]

I just got a call from Chris the lady at Gilestone, she knows what a flap I have been in, she too is not impressed with our tipi friend. She has a suggestion, basically she has a 20 x 40 foot marquee that she is willing to get put up on the bottom field, they are doing this for the first time early in May for another party, so she thought of us, and suggested that we could do the same. She says that it is not a problem for people to sleep in, it would just be a much larger version of a tipi, it takes about 4 hours to put up and take down again, so she is looking at £150.00 for the three nights, this will include electric as they have just had electric put in the bottom field. She says that anyone bringing tents will be able to pitch them around the marquee. So what do you think? she has pencilled the marquee in for us, and I need to call her back, she has also asked that I let her know asap how many people will be camping as she is concerned about it being the bank holiday weekend. Let me know please your thoughts on this ???

 

[carolfoy]

that sounds like a definite plan Jules, what a laugh! we can all bring our airbeds and sleeping bags and bunk down.

 

[natalielongstaff]

Sounds like a good plan to me !

we are bringing our own tent again jules
