Thought id put the dates out there well in advance, I'm doing my yearly
trip up north to the lake's.
I had such a good time on our last mini meet would love to do it again.
The dates are from the 26th May to the 2nd of June, any input would be
appreciated.

I'd certainly be keen to meet up again, and I love coming to the Lakes anyway. Plus that's so much of an advance warning that I haven't got anything in the diary yet...!  Smile

Well the good news is, that is Cumbria's half term school holiday, so next question - any preference for venue/campsite?

I liked Coniston Hall but would be much up for going somewhere else, too. gotbeanz mentioned a jaunt up that track you did last year, and there might be wildcamp options? Although tricky to get away with with a bigger group. I've always liked the look of the Langdale campsite as well, but I've never actually stayed there...

Langdale campsite is nicely situated, but all vehicles have to remain on hard standing - only tents are allowed on the grass areas. I like Coniston Hall for it's relaxed informality and plenty of space. For smaller numbers (they don't do formal groups), Chapel House Farm in Borrowdale is a beautiful situation, but a small site, so may be quickly filled.

Glad you guys are on board☺ I didn't stay but loved the location of Coniston Hall, I also found a spot
that will take four or five delicas wild camping so that's an option as well.

I would maybe be up for this but I would want to have made sure the Deli was tip top before making a trip that long. The lakes are about 6 hours away from mine, and that was in my Coupe driving 70ish all the way.

Perhaps you and Gotbeanz Luke could meet on the M5 and travel up in convoy?

Sounds like a plan, I think I did the journey over 9 hours in the L300, that was cruising at 55 most the way, didn't have to stop to refuel so that was a bonus.
