^^^ I emailed the site mentioned in an earlier post, but no response. Plus, its on the other side of the island and around 30miles away, so something closer would be good. I spotted a site at St David bays, but the reviews are poor and its expensive, so not sure what to do.

cheers

Re: the possible meet at the Heritage Motor Centre, my view would be to do that as a separate event, as getting down from Red Wharf Bay on the Sunday wouldnt leave much time to do the centre justice.

Just my 2c

Cheers

Replying to S4XKP. Given the lack of interest from Solihull we are going to York to see BAS after the beach event so heritage is in the wrong direction for us this time. Would definitely like to go there with other landys on another day in the future.

Got to agree with Couplands that we wouldn't get our monies worth from a visit to Gaydon by the time we got there.

Anyone know of any other good museums in North Wales/Merseyside area? Perhaps with a motoring slant?

Interested to hear where others are camping, as I need to book something the night before 2007 - Stornoway Grey 90 XS SW - Gone

Lucinda, be interested to hear how you get on., Dafarn reads like a reasonable site.

Couplands, after reading the reviews, I'll get shot by SWMBO if I try and book in there. 2007 - Stornoway Grey 90 XS SW - Gone

^^^ ooooh, which reviews did you look at..? I saw some here: -> http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/reviews.asp?revid=14571

....while they're only a few, they seemed ok.

For 1 night we'll survive (I hope). The last "campsite" I was in was shared with a herd of sheep (that doesn't sound right, does it) and spent the next day scraping sheep poo off the bottom of the tent... Rolling with laughter

cheers

It would appear there maybe two sites with the same name

http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/reviews.asp?revid=8660 - your version reads much better, so might join you guys there.

Personally I'm quite happy to kip anywhere, especially as its for just one night, but SWMBo has standards and a criteria 2007 - Stornoway Grey 90 XS SW - Gone
2002 - Black Discovery II - Gone
2014 - Montalcino Red 110 XS SW

^^^ There are at least 4 sites with the same name...! One is a Caravan Club site, but the others do vans and tents.

My Mrs is coming along, so I hope its OK.. Shocked

Looks likely I will book into the site couplands mentioned too when I get back into the UK in a week or so. I will be kipping in the back of the 110.

Will go with the flow after the beach event (and before it, still a free weekend for me).

We're booked into the Bull Bay Hotel (SWMBO doesn't like camping) but would like to meet up Sat Eve with anyone who's around, any suggestions for Sat evening? Is there a pub near the most popular campsite?
