Hi,

We've just come back from a really fantastic weekend at Blackberry Wood. It's a bit frustrating because as well as the obvious problems of actually getting a pitch, we live in the Manchester area, so getting there is pretty difficult for the odd weekend!!

I was wondering if anyone may have a suggestions for something similar in Northern England or Wales? We particularly enjoyed the campfires, quietness and the fact that we weren't on top of other campers.

Would certainly sacrifice facilities (all if necessary) to get a similar experience a bit closer to home!

Hi, sorry this isn't any help but I just wanted to say I'm with you - we're in the NW and would also love to know if there's anything similar near home.

At least your post has been bumped up to the top for a while.

Good luck!

Thanks Cas.

That looks absolutely fantastic and I'm sorely tempted. Have you been?

The only problem is that it's still (according to Google) 193 miles and nearly 5 hours away!!! Surely with all that Northern England and North Wales has got to offer in terms of scenery, there must be something closer to us? I'm beginning to think maybe not!!!!
