CLUB BBQ/Milk Hope Farm House to rent

John Wallis · Post by **John Wallis** » Wed Jun 05, 2013 5:23 pm

This farm House is near Kidlandlee Forest in the Cheviots if you paste this grid reference into Google Maps Satellite 55.397758,-2.122636 or click here

It will show you how remote and beautiful it is. I think it belongs to the education establishment but is available for renting....Sorry donations to use so they can rent it out cheap if you follow me. It's just been revamped but by no standards luxurious.

Just been told this today more details and prices to follow. It would be a hell of a place for a club BBQ

Sounds like a good loose plan to me, count me in.

OK Committee and members listen up!

More details about Milkhope Farm house. It has about 12/15? bunkbeds so I guess you will need your sleeping bag and there is plenty of space outside for
camping. The cost is £10.00 per person per night, I'm sure with all the money in the club coffers the committee will pay for anyone attending???? and maybe supply a keg of ale and dare I say some wine too.

I can supply a 45 gall type BBQ and the charcoal etc just bring your own meat salads bread whatever you want to eat.

If there is enough interest we need to set a date and get the place booked.

Anyone with an instrument to make music would be fantastic so we can have a good old sing song and there's not a soul around to hear us

This could be a cracking club night in a fantastic place in the Cheviots we could even make it a fly to goal task if we are in the Cheviots flying on the day

Can you please leave your name on this post to say you're interested and how many will be coming.

I would need a selection of possible dates before commuting to it but sounds like it could be a gaggle !

Cheers

We could do with a bit more interest if this is going to get organised guys only 7 replies out of the whole club? This could be great fun and very different from what we've done in the past. Can you also post if you're not interested just so we can gauge who has read the post.

Cheers

Sounds good, I'm up for it, Depending on the date.

OK its just in the planning stages at the moment but i would agree with John the club would meet any costs involved,

as for possible dates we need to see when its available but looking at the calender I would suggest sat 27th July right smack bang in the middle of summer

( so more chance of sunshine

)

I would also say come one come all bring along wife's kids family, friend, neighbors, the more the merrier

If we can get it and we get a good turnout it could be epic. possibly the best club barbie camp out ever its a fantastic location right in the boon'y of Northumberland after all we are the NORTHUMBRIA hang-gliding paragliding club.

so working on the idea that we can get it on 27th of July please Carry on posting if you are coming also how many in your party bearing in mind the more the merrier.
:idea:I have a few ideas for fun and games wellie hoying, wife carrying races, dwarf throwing etc etc.

So fingers crossed we can get it and looking forward to a great day

AngusB · Post by **AngusB** » Thu Jun 13, 2013 1:24 am

Post by **colin keightley** » Thu Jun 13, 2013 7:19 am

Just got back from a very long weekend wedding in Brighton and there's an email to say the 27th is OK

I've got to meet up with one of the wardens at sometime to be shown how everything works etc so I,ll keep you informed when I get the info. It's starting to shape up to a good night

sounds great to me but how do you get to it? is it a walk in or four wheel drive only as it looks a long way off the beaten track?

cheers gary

John Wallis · Post by **John Wallis** » Mon Jun 17, 2013 9:02 pm

There's a gate or gates with combination locks on I will be given the numbers when I'm taken up to see how everything works. You can get a vehicle all the way so I'm told.
