THE DALESBRIDGE 2011 Event Cache

Well what do you know it's that time of year again. Back by popular demand, The Dalesbridge. We have booked the campsite from Friday 1st July to Sunday 3rd July 2011 (Jason will be there from Thursday 30th June if anyone wants to come earlier).

Please book directly with the campsite, either online or by telephone, and be sure to quote the magic word "GEOCACHING" when you book (online form has a special request box for you to type this in). There are a number of electric hook ups available - please request these when you book.

Bed and breakfast accommodation is available as well as bunkhouses.

The campsite is beautifully situated in the Forest of Bowland, at the point where it meets the Yorkshire Dales National Park, offering stunning scenery and an idyllic setting for visitors wishing to stay and enjoy the area.

The reception area sells essential items and will happily freeze your freezer blocks for you. There is a friendly local shop in Austwick village (less than a mile) and supermarkets nearby in Settle and Ingleton (approx 5 miles) that are open till late.

There is also a brilliant butty van across the road from the Dalesbridge entrance that does breakfasts, sandwiches etc to eat in or take away.

The Dalesbridge campsite welcomes dogs but they ask that they are kept under close control and that owners are considerate to other campers.

BBQs are permitted, off the ground please, but no open fires.

Visitors are welcome on site on Saturday evening if they are not camping.

Dalesbridge is situated on the main A65 cross-Pennine route between Ingleton (6 miles) and Settle (5 miles), close to the village of Austwick with the entrance on the main A65 road. Travelling by train, the nearest station within walking distance is Clapham (2.5 miles), but for those being collected by car, Settle and Giggleswick are more convenient.

Would you please log your Will Attend on the cache page and also notify us when you have booked with the campsite so we are aware of numbers. Thanks.
