Possible venues
From DorkbotLondon
We've now settled on Bentley copse. This page remains for future reference.
- Bentley Copse Scout Camp <- click for the wiki page
- On the plus side - Everything we need and more, close to london, beautiful setting
- On the minus side - Camp rules might be oppressive, but as long as we can talk quietly and do headphone performances in the dark it should be ok?
- Isabel's Mothers house - Spitchwick in Poundsgate, Devon
- http://www.dartmoornationalpark.co.uk/maps.php (see below right of 'Dartmoor')
- Possibility of camping in the meadow (v. small group) or close by and using Mums (large outdoor space) as a base for activities
- Youth hostels, we might be able to hire one exclusively, and/or camp in their grounds and use their facilities (hot showers, kitchens, etc)
