can I PM you? There's no showers on this site so all I want to know is where the nearest swimming pool is!

---

Not sure what a pm (personal message?) is but you can certainly do it. Nearest showers will be Frome swimming Pool about 5 miles away. Its on the road into Frome from Bath through oldford village.

Pool & sports centre is on the college site (but not part of college.)

Fiona, the in laws turned up with it all this morning. Forgot the grandparents get the Mirror and they had kept them for us! Managed to book a site on the edge of the New Forest for a weekend next month.

Hi Fiona, I'd be interested if you still have them available?

---

millermicm, thanks for that info I'll certainly make use of the leisure centre.

You were spot on about PM....often there's a facility on forums just haven't found it yet on this one.

Sounds lovely Chopsy. I'm sure your sister will hear me as I'll probably be the only one around with a N. Irish accent!

I'd like to check out your village too and especially interested in little pubs with great food! I'll be there between the 14th and the 22nd of July so maybe we'll bump into you! 

Our main reason for visiting this area is Longleat, to fulfill a promise to my kids who are avid fans of the TV show. I came upon this web site whilst looking at the surrounding area for places to camp - hence the username which was a spur of the moment thing! I didn't know we were going to be within distance to Centreparcs - all the better!

If you want good pubs with great food you cannot go wrong with your hosts at the Bell. They also do some great events out there which no doubt you will miss - cider festival, beer festival etc.

Don't tell everyone but this is THE place to live.  Have a look round historic frome, frome. Shopping is crap but there is so much else.

If you kids are into animals the local farmers auction sale of animals at standerwick each Wednesday might be interesting.

Bath 12 miles away - a world heritage site. Stonehenge 40 minutes in a car.

You will also catch a few days of Frome festival

Wow - I'm going to get a notebook for all of this info! I lived in Dungannon for 8 years Linda - my kids, who are 12 and 13 now (both boys) were born there! I live about 30 miles away from there now.

Millermicm, I didn't know there was a festival on that's brilliant! I'm getting so excited about this holiday I just wish it was coming sooner.

I have the pull out here. Where are you interested in. Central England?
