The 2015 event was to be our last, but due to
pressure applied we have agreed to do ONE more.
By popular demand our annual camping meet will remain in wild Devon,
and will be continuing the popular CHRISTMAS theme.
So book the date in your diaries for:
"A Wild (West) Christmas 2016"
NOW!
Essential dates for your diary
18th June 2016 4pm till late
Camping available from 14th to 21st
After our successful event here last June we have decided to stay in Devon at Cofton Country Holiday Park. The site has excellent well maintained facilities with something for everyone including indoor and outdoor swimming pools, steam room and gym as well as an on-site shop, restaurants, playgrounds and fishing lakes. The site is blessed with plenty of clean modern toilet and shower facilities and electric hook-up for every pitch.
The site is easily accessible by road being just a few miles from Exeter and the M5 junctions 30 and 31, and for those using public transport the nearest station is just over a mile away at Starcross and the site has a bus stop in the middle.
The obligatory BBQ will be held on the Saturday evening which will have a Christmas theme (start sorting out your costumes now) to which all smiley hunters are welcome. I will add details for this as we develop and formalise our plans, but do expect lots of silliness (muddy legs department).
Please bring your own food for the BBQ and if you can, a BBQ, although if you can't manage a BBQ there will be plenty around that you will be able to share.
If you intend to come to this event please can you log your intentions below, and please include whether you are camping, how many adults/children in your party.
