Virgin-Vees Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 We cant get down till early AM Saturday (blame the boss cos we do) coming from Nottingham and hoping desperately for hassle free parking and a tidy place to pitch the tent hahahaha we know we won't be that lucky. But any idea how tough it's going to be for us campers arriving Saturday morning, are we gonna clash with the daytrippers for space? We dont care how far away we have to camp or walk but dont want to spend hours and hours doing either Just a bit of your valuable experience needed please, are we bonkers coming Saturday?

Beerqueen Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 I always am a weekend non-camper and the traffic usually isn't too bad getting in on Saturday - much less busy than Friday. But of course there will be limited camping space. So you should get in fine but may have limited choices on where to camp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairywookie Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 Id suggest heading for green campsite when u get there as its one of the biggest campsites and tends to fill up the latest. However if u see a spot on your way to green just take it cos im not joking u mate, ur gonna have a ball ache sat morning. Not too sure bout the traffic cos im always in there by friday aft but the guy above says its ok so u might be in luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cvw55 Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 i was worried about the traffic on saturday - whats the M54 been like on Saturday mid-morning on V weekends before? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerqueen Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 M54 is fine! Once you turn off, as far as I can remember the A41 isn't bad at all - not compared to Friday anyway. If you're coming from Telford way, you can play it safe by taking the A5 from there which never has any traffic on it at all right up to the roundabout at Weston. I always leave a bit of extra time to be on the safe side but it really isn't bad at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
