View Full Version : Westcountry Bushcrafters?
Hows many of us are based in the westcountry?
I am based in Devon, I know another is based in north Devon and one in south, could always meet up. A "regional" gathering will be easier to organise and more likely to come off.

I'm not based in the west country, but the idea of a regional meet
up is fantastic! Sussex anyone.

Hi,
Getting the thread back onto the original question.
Neil it's a great idea. I'm up in North Devon. Name a date sadly It'll have to be before the 25th of Feb for me as I'm off to New Zealand then for good :-D
Cheers

I'm exactly half way between Launceston and Bude. Near Holsworthy.
Jaymondo - forget these westcountry postings - I am in Sussex too :wink:
And I know of another couple of lurkers that re as well.
Saying that, I spend loads of time in Somerset - but I dont think they would let me play now :-D

Im in Somerset
I'm on the Dorset/Somerset border
i'm in glos, but i like the south west, easy to get to. quite a ususal holiday destination for us.
cheers and.
Would the eastern side of Dartmoor be central enough for everyone? Perhaps for a day-walk up thru some nice woodland and maybe a camp-out. Thoughts please.

cracking idea! i tend to have a busy time in the spring, lot's of annual jaunts. but if the timing was right i'd be up for it.
cheers, and.
Give an idea of timmings please, this would be very helpfull. SE Bushcrafters note: this is a whole lot better than, Eridge, Rotherfield, Mayfield area ( I know, I grew up there).. Good mixed woodland, brown trout in the streams, wild eds everywhere and the occasional wood nymph!!!

I've have just changed jobs so trying to sort a whole weekend is a little difficult right now, but I am free on sunday if anyone wants to get a day on the moors? Reply if you are interested and I'll put up the sheet no's and grid refs needed.

I'm in Hampshire and definately up a for a meet up, be good to meet people and practice with folks that share this interest, most people I tell just look at me as if I've got another head... in fact one mate said he wouldn't mind - as long as hes in a caravan with an electric hook up :AR15firin .

Norwich!
with nearby areas of interest being.
north norfolk coastal walk
pedders way
thetford forest
horsford woods
and Norwich city ain't too bad either! :wink:
I'm down Devon way... Exeter, in fact!
Have only recently moved to the area, so would be interested to find out where others go in the area, and if there are any local courses/gatherings that take place.
Thanks in advance.
Jed.
I'm just outside Exeter, but getting any free time at the mo is a little difficult to say the least. As soon as work calms down a little, I'll free up a day and we can go exploring.

Another one near Southampton. Could be fun?

I'm in Bristol tho most weekends at the minute are in London or in Brighton so I don't get out much :-(
I've moving down to just outside Exeter soon(ish) so definitely interested in all the plans for a South-West meet.
