    The lovely people at Eskdale Caravan and Camping Club are putting on a VW camp again next year. Last year was the first and it sold out in 2 days.

    This isn't a festival as such but a VW get together in a lovely part of the Lake District at a campsite with great facilities and very proactive owners. There are 3 pubs within a short distance, the Ratty railway, some lovely walking country.

    Call to book on 019467 23253 - from Thursday 6th November.

    Some of us have just come back from Halloween Camp there :)

  7. Not sure how much it is, you have to phone them on Thurs 6th, they can't book anyone in before then.
     
  8. We hope to join you for our first VW group camping - we are already members of the C&CC so will be great to combine the two.

    They haven't announced any plans yet but last year they put on some kids activities at the site and the local pubs had live music.
