Id be keen on this with  potentially 1 or 2 friends also interested. No kids is defo my vote although I do know that little folk love to camp.
If this date includes kids I'd be happy to wait for a future childfree date.

Actually count us out for this date as Fathers Day is Sunday 19 June. Will keep an eye out for future dates

Heggs

Ah, no! Didn't know that lol. How about the week after? Sat the 25th. Does that suit everyone? No kids this time and I'll arrange a kid freindly one a few weeks later. That way people can suss out what they need to bring when they have the wee ones. Let me know guys and I'll book it today.

Great place to camp and a joy to visit.

Might be worth checking when the nesting season finishes?
I remember a couple of years back being advised that certainly May was out, but cannot remember if June was okay or not.


Heggs

Hi velvetmonkey, I've got the go ahead to go anytime now.
I'm booking Sat the 25th of June and I'll post here when it's confirmed.
I've been there a few times a year for at least the past 5-6 years and its perfect for wild camping, let me know if you want to go

Heggs

I now have confirmation - Saturday 25th June.
No kids this time (I will arrange one soon after)
£10 per person
Let me know guys who is in
