Geocache Description:

With camping events far and wide, from North East and West to way down in the South West, we felt it was time to do something a bit closer to home

The campsite at Beecraigs is peacefully situated within Beecraigs County Park, which is located in the scenic Bathgate Hills, 2 miles south of historic Linlithgow town. Please note the peaceful aspect cannot be guaranteed once we arrive

We have exclusively taken over the camping field within Beecraigs campsite for the weekend 22nd – 24th July. The field will hold approximately 20 tents, depending on size. It is only suitable for tents and there is no power on it.

Caravans and motorhomes are more than welcome, however they will need to be sited on one of the sites standard pitches, all of which are very close to the camping field.

The Actual Event

We will be at the campsite from lunchtime on Friday 22nd July until Sunday lunchtime.

The logable part of the weekend is the Saturday night, when we will be having a BBQ at 7pm, with the Campervan Catering Co. looking after us, as usual. To make things easier, we will supply all the food for the barbeque and ask everyone to pay a small amount per head to cover the cost. The cost will likely be around £5 per person.

A night cache will also be placed for fun and further adventures around the park after dark on the Saturday night. There is a great new play park at Beecraigs, myself and Mairi (geoarab)have already tried out the swings, am sure we will end up there on the Saturday night, haven't been on the slides yet.

This event is open to campers, caravaners, motorhomers and day visitors. Please note day visitors will need to leave their cars at the country parks car park, beside the restaurant, its only a couple of minutes walk along to the camping field

Booking Arrangements

Camping

As the camping field is booked out exclusively for this event, to book a pitch, please send me an email and I'll add you to the list and confirm your place. As space is limited, all bookings will be dealt with on a strictly first come first served basis.

To cover the cost of the camping field we will need to collect a small charge of £15 per camping unit per night. Obivously if the event proves popular and we end up with additional funds over the cost of the camping field, we will reduce this rate accordingly. In your email can you please include the size of your tent, how many people it holds will be fine and your car registration number to allow you access to park close to the camping field.

Caravan and Motorhome

Please contact the campsite direct on 01506 844516 to book a pitch

Catering

As usual the campervan catering company will be feeding us all weekend, with something to eat on Friday night and breakfasts on Saturday and Sunday and the Saturday night BBQ

As previously mentioned we will provide a BBQ on Saturday, however, if you are staying all weekend breakfast and Friday night dinner, along with the bbq can be provided and cooked for you. To cover the costs of all food for this, we will need to collect £10 per person to cover the cost. Please let me know if you are interested in this so we make sure we have enough bacon and sausages. Sorry we can't provide a delivery service and bring it to you in bed ?

Look forward to seeing you there
