Hi, have been looking for a site that is near to a parkrun, trying to organise a long weekend away for October, preferably Essex, Suffolk, Kent.

Have been studying both the parkrun map and search for sites on here, nothing like 1st hand experience though.

Thanks

Henlow Bridge Lakes is close to the parkrun of the same name (didn't camp there, so don't know what the site is like).

Hill Farm is within walking distance of Wendover Woods. It's a lovely spot.

Haven't done this one, but Westmill Farm Three Lakes is close to Westmill parkun.

Will be interesting to see if there are any others for future visits!

Thanks, Fudge59.
Have looked into a few given to me from our running club.

Alton Waters Ipswich 2 laps parkrun, has campsite on site.

Sizewell near Aldeburgh 1 lap parkrun, has Beach View holidays campsite close by.

Maybe Webmaster could look into this as a dedicated search!!

Hi Freckles63, many thanks for these, a weekend in Aldeburgh would be good in the future. If I think of any more I'll let you know.

Just bumping this - a few of us made it from the Torchlight festival at Walesbury Forest to Clumber Park parkrun.

There is a CAMC site closer at Clumber Park for those of you who are members there.

Too far, but maybe if you’re up this way, there’s one around Forfar Loch in Angus, beside the CAMC site of that name.

2024 = 20 sites / 41 nights. 2023 = 9/23. 2022 = 13/35. 2021 = 11/29. 2020 = 4/20. 2019 = 13/35. 2018 = 20/33. 2017 = 10/22. 2016 = 19/33. 2015 = 15 sites / 27 nights. Didn't count 1976 to 2014.
