The Dutch Oven and tripod have arrived and boy are they heavy. I'll be looking for volunteers to help lump the stuff to the camp :D
As i'll not be camping i'll have plenty of spare capacity, sure it'll give me an excuse to come early for a change.

You always say you aren't camping and then end up doing so..

I love the idea of ham and hammocking. There's still time enough to get a hammock for this if you don't have one (10% off for NI-Wild members in NI on orders £30+).

Think it's time I make another attempt at camping, even if it's even glamping:-) Me and junior will possibly be there.

Bought two hammoks and a tarp back in January which got their first use on Saturday past. Great kit, good quality and very reasonable in the price department. If anyone is thinking about one but is unsure get it bought, one night in mine and im converted

Hi,
New to the forum but spent fair amount of time in hammocks including winter camps.
Wife and I spent a week this summer with a child in each hammock.
Was thinking of bringing my 3 year old along to this.
Is it child friendly?
What is the parking like (safe) as may bring the van as a back up?
Thanks
Steve

Definitely child friendly, at the moment I think 3 kids are coming but they're all 11+. We'll generally have a few beers around the fire and have the potential to be noisy late at night I suppose ;) Annalong can be popular with the teens, not at this time of year, only in the good weather, but there can still be broken glass around although we try and tidy as best we can when we get there. It's also not a long walk but probably enough of a challenge for a 3 year old, especially in this sort of weather.

You're more game than me, I have a toddler and I can't imagine her coming camping outside of a campsite, she's such a messer ;)

There's secure parking at Carrick Plant Hire on the lane up, is £5 per night and is a car park overlooked by the owners house.
