Bury, Greater Manchester
I'm coming up to Bury in August to do a dog training week (I will have two small dogs with me) and need somewhere to stay overnights in the Bongo. Can anyone recommend anywhere cheap? I don't mind a bit of travel there and back, but it seems a bit much to pay out some of the prices I've been quoted when I only need somewhere from approx 5pm to 9am. I can get by with no electric if needed. I was thinking of wild camping and just booking a couple of nights on a site for the showers..

The Burrs is a lovely location.
Also can vouch for Adrian at Japan Direct. Visited him for the first time last week. Very nice chap and very helpful.

Re: Bury, Greater Manchester
The Burrs is the most expensive and one I am hoping to avoid. It looks lovely yes, but I'll only be on the site overnights, with maybe needing to cook a meal there, with no time or need for dog walks as they will be training all day at the training club it seemed a bit steep at £32 a night. I just need basic facilities, so was hoping for more budget prices, or a farmer who lets out a field for instance, someone near me does that and it's only £6 a night...
There is another site that's a bit cheaper, but it's got a height barrier that the staff have to open and close and that just seemed too much of a pain when I will be in and out 'office hours'.
