If you really did want to camp - judging by todays weather you may wish to reconsider!! - I know it's a bit of a way but you could give Savernake forest a go. Like I said, it is a bit of a way out.

Better still though - note excited tone now!!
You could always do a bit of wild camping on the Rigdeway itself. I know it's not really the done thing, but the rangers can turn a blind eye if for example you get a bit behind schedule & just have to stop for the night - blah, blah, blah.

If you get somewhere off the track it can be a very cool experience. Did it near Barbury castle once, actually did get caught out in the dark honest guv.


don't forget your loo roll!

Thanks Blaidd

No, personally I didn't really fancy camping - esp on me own. Got a B&B at a farm very near the 'oss in the end. (Wanted a pub really... but they're all booked up or too expensive.)

Figured if anyone goes to the pub, it won't be very far from the horse & I could walk back to the farm. At the moment it's not looking as if there's going to be many make it at all! :^)

love
