Camping here:

http://www.caravancampingsites.co.uk/st ... horinn.htm

Basic campsite, the pub is a gem, but due to isolation will be on Winter Hours, Friday Eve, Saturday lunch and Eve, Sunday lunchtime.

Only food is sandwiches.

About £10.50 per unit per night, inc hook up, awning £1.50.

If you're staying here we will do our very best to join you, it's Mrs B's favourite pub in England.

Worth mentioning that RAF museum is free entry. :D

Only if you arrive on foot. Last time we were there, we found they had gone the hospitals route, and now charge for parking - to "help with costs of running the museum". Wonder how long before they're forced to charge admission as well - can't see them getting taxpayer funding when every penny is needed to keep bankers in the style to which none of us peasants will ever become accustomed :evil: http://www.rafmuseum.org.uk/cosford/pla ... arking.cfm

I must admit to having been a total slacker and not organised the mini-meet there. Pressure of work, house to do up, etc. etc. :oops: :oops:

Sneaked that one in then. We were there in the spring, arrived by Bongo and it was free, didn't know they'd started charging to park. :(
