Eastnor Castle 16-20 September 2021 UPDATED

Post by Jillygumbo » Wed Apr 07, 2021 4:53 pm

UPDATE: Booking online for September is now open. £12 a night. Book and pay online. You must have your own toilet facility. Only tap and tank and wonderful views and company. https://eastnorcastle.com/deer-park-campsite/. Firepits allowed OFF the ground. Please use a fire blanket to protect the grass. Dogs allowed on lead around the camp.

If you'd like to consider attending Eastnor Castle deer park meet this coming September, put the above dates in your diary. It's not the last weekend this year, because I can't make it then (re-scheduled live band event for me).

There's no guarantee it will be open as Eastnor Castle haven't announced any opening times after 06/06/2021. As and when they do, I'll let you know.

Thanks

In my calendar, wasn't able to make it last year due to Photo shoots, everything gets compressed into the later months!

The dates are now available for booking on the Eastnor web site.

Note: You need to book 1 pitch, and then the number of nights.

See you there. :D

Not long now. :D

Don't forget to book on-line this year, and if you can bring a few logs for the fire pit, brilliant.

Ideally in lengths we can get in the fire pit, please. :wink:

Not if they're stocking any Bongo friendly must-haves... 😆
Allan's closed. We recommend PGS (Plymouth Garage Services) or Mayflower Auto Services in Plymouth.

Will do - do we have dates yet for 2022. Sorry I'm not on here much, the insistence of Facebook has prised me loose!
