Hi O_Bee_One,

I had a similar problem last year as I am from Twyford and there isn't many places locally.

I went to Go-Outdoors in Oxford but felt there wasn't enough tents up, I also went to the Wokingham show which I think the chap that runs it, takes it round the country but makes like Outwell were not there as they won't send a rep to put tents up (these companies amaze me that they are prepared to miss out on so much potential business). All in all there were lots of tents but not many poly/cottons which is what I wanted.

But as there were not many in the area, I went down to Somerset and there are three big places all fairly close to the M5. And I found a place that made and sold cider

And at one of them (Highcross) I fell in love with the Cabanon Biscaya

There is also a place down at Three Legged Cross although I haven't been.

But P J Camping at Coblands Garden Centre as mentioned by Rickit is down the road and I will take a look and let you know if it is any good.

Three legged Cross is Forest Camping if i'm not mistaken, always lots of Cabanon's on display there.

Thanks for all the replies,

I went to PJ camping, I spoke to a guy that was very enthusiastic, but didnt know a huge amount!!! They had lots of little tents up, a couple of huge tents up and nothing much in between which is what I was looking for. He did say he would price match within reason though.

I think I may try and fit in a trip to guildford, to see what they have up.
