ABR SOUTH COAST SIMMER RALLY 15/17 JULY 2011
Re: Camping Weekend Down South
Sounds like a fantastic idea! Won't be able to join you guys for the whole weekend. But I shall pop along for the day for one of the rideouts. I only live in shoreham-by-sea anyway!
Re: Camping Weekend Down South
There's a campsite in Lower Pennington, 'Hurst View' a short walk to a pub, and they allow campfires, in fact they sell bags of wood for campers to use, was there a couple of weeks ago and it was ok...Jim Lovell wrote:Unfortunately no fires aloud or burning wood, leaves etc is a £500 fine i was thinking of a BBQ (its ok if raised off the ground) and burning charcoal.
I thought if i get a BBQ (or make one) people could just grab some food on the way and cook it when they arrive whilst meeting and erecting tents.
The Foresters pub is great for food although you may need to book, its a bit of a walk but worth it, the Snakecatcher is closer and so is the Rose and Crown so lots of choice if your not fussed about cooking.
was going to post a picture, but the option has gone...!!

Re: Camping Weekend Down South
Count me in for this
A campsite we've used before (Super Tenere Forum) is at Sixpenny Handley [A354 between Salisbury & Blandford]. No problems with groups/same sex/bikes & about £12pppn last June, but maybe a bit far away from the Forest ?

"What desert?"
"Doesn't make any difference what desert, it's completely hypothetical"
"Then how come i'd be there?"
"Maybe you're fed up, maybe you wanna be by yourself, who knows?"

Re: Camping Weekend Down South
£12 a night that's more like it,i wouldn't pay 24.50 you can get a night in a travelodge or premier inn for £19 so not going to pay extra for a tent.
