Thanks to Danny we are putting on a replacement for the BOIL

Have added it to the Events section

Danny's establishment is Haggs Bank Bunkhouse near Alston in Cumbria CA9 3LH

Website: http://haggsbank.com

Prices include a communal fire for the regulation chat, chit and chunter. Depending on feedback there could be food on Friday and Saturday nights.

Danny can offer local ales, bottled beers and breakfast options on site.

I will be asking for deposits by the end of April so Danny doesn't get out of pocket for stepping in at short notice

Cheers

John

You have several options for staying at the rally

Camping (tent) or hammock in the wood - £10 pppn Fri and Sat (50% off Thurs and Sun)

Bunkhouse - £20 pppn Fri and Sat (50% off Thurs and Sun)
4/5 person room
