I looked at the map its a reasonable trek for us and I dont wanna turn up and find out theres nowhere to put our tent...

I'd be happier knowing I had space booked in the campsite but if they dont work that way, theres not a lot I can do !!!

I guess it'll mean an earlish start for us if we planned on getting there for lunchtime early afternoon I would have thought that would be OK ?

i could look into other sites, but i have already done that and TBH not had much luck
I guess it'll mean an earlish start for us if we planned on getting there for lunchtime early afternoon I would have thought that would be OK ? i would hope so, im working till 12 on the friday,so would be there for 1.30ish, but i couls book the day off and get there 10am or even sooner, although unless there is others there , there is not much point........ there is no pitches, you just go where you want/he tells you, im sure we will be ok, and can squezze together
?

I'd say go with what you have planned, its to late to change it now really and it'll mean extra work if you were to do so.

I cant imagine the campsite owner would turn people away especially if he is having a slow summer due to the weather, we'll just plan to get there early I think.

Look at the weekend just gone. He said he was booking up and it was getting busy and that campsite was pretty much empty...
