This is the website but I think it is fairly inaccurate http://www.bloodybridge.com/html/campsites.html. Basically drive out of Newcastle on the coast road to Annalong until you get to the Bloody Bridge Car Park on the left handside. The campsite is up the farmers lane beside the start of the Bloody Bridge trail on the other side of the road. Just open the gate and drive up. Bloody Bridge Campsite is first on the right I think. Depending on where you're coming from you could travel down in convoy with us if you like. Just PM me.

yes, glad you mentioned Frank :-)
I have no idea where the site is!

Hope you all have a good one unfortunately me and my wingman wont be able to make this one as it's caravan season so wont be able to make any camps until the autumn/winter so roll on the dark nights for us...

Another great night was had, good to do a bit of glamping again and just throw stuff into the car until nothing else fits  :) even brought the bike. I had to fade a bit early myself, went to tuck the little one in at 1am and promptly nodded off myself >:( Twas a lovely dry evening, midges weren't too bad and a little spray kept them at bay, its hard to tell whether they got me as i'm already covered in bites from the previous evening.











now whats going on here then, dowsers at the fire and everyone is standing well back

Great stuff guys, it's definitely nice once in a while to be able to take all your gear without having to worry about weight or bulk. Even better that the kids can bring all their toys and have a nice day playing together in the outdoors.
The weather was brilliant, we had a nice hours (unsuccessful) fishing in glorious sunshine down at the shore and the weather was lovely right up until the next morning. It was just a shame about the midges, they were out in full force!
