After a very successful 2025 meet Annabelle is happy for us to return next year. Camp site booking can be made nearer the time but the Barn and other residential rooms will need booking at Common End Camp site Swinscoe.
The Dairy bungalow will also be done by then 2 x double bedrooms and a bunk bed room so sleeps 6, one bathroom, lounge, patio area and so on.
Please note 30C blue sky weather is not guaranteed.

Guessing We will still get a discount booking direct.

An awesome weekend with good friends, but in reality, with 7 hours each way, its just a little too far for us for an overnighter irrespective of how much we enjoyed it -

Its a shame we cannot find an additional (and different each year) venue back around the centre of the Country like N.E.W.S. used to be -  I really miss that one  :'(

The reality is many camp sites will not accept groups these days we have tried to find alternative sites near main roads.
Even for us I go up wednesday to sunday to make it worth while as we take 2 vehicles and the caravan but well done to yourselves and Steve from Fowey for making the trip up may need a long distance and best buggy prize in 26.

I have booked with the site a grass pitch with 6amp EHU is £30 less the discount we get when applying for the beach buggy weekend other pitches are available. So please book your own we are up on Wednesday the 8th.
There are now more self contained rooms to book on the site.

The cruise will include the dairy for ice creams and a reverse ride down the castle track as requested.

Just had a heads up from Annabel,

There is more accommodation  available for folks who do not like camping or want a proper bed and facilities.
They have been offered to us early so need reserving asap before the release to jo public
. Hi Keith,
Vanessa contacted me there us also a room spare in the barn as first choice so contact Vanessa or post on here
 

It dawned on me today, are you aware we have 2 smaller self catering properties now available here on site after refurbishment last year?

 

The Old Dairy sleeps 2 people – I think this has been booked today by someone from your group.

 

We also have Littlemoor Farm which sleeps up to 6 people in 3 bedrooms with 1 bathroom.  If you have anyone who would usually stay off site and join you in the daytime, and would be interested in possibly renting this property, get them to message me direct and I can provide further details.  We do have a website although its not fully functional yet – the website man is waiting for me to get some more information to him and at the moment I just don't have time eek.

Good news for ice cream addicts Tagg Lane will have us there Saturday morning so it will be an early stop on the cruise when I sort a route out which will include the castle gated road again but going down this time.

The Manifold Inn is welcoming us at 1pm  and opening up a field for parking the buggies so drinks and snacks can be ordered there., this stop is courtesy of Hugh
