Good to have a date so we don't clash with the 'Mad as a March Hare'. :D

Sounds good and nice to see pets are allowed. Hoping that my Springer will still be with me by then [-o< as she will be 15 and a half.

We will be booking this one for sure, just need to know what sort of brush to use to remove sand and then the best apparel to wear to keep sand at bay.
I await clarification and instructions.

Thanks for that. That would account for need for electric hook-up.

I know Sandyballs is a full facilities site but will the area where the meet takes place have easy access to toilets and showers? Thanks.

We will be placed on either the Four Acres or Orchard areas. It hasn't been decided yet. Both are fairly near full toilet/shower facilities. But to get as near as possible please stipulate your preference at time of booking.
