Doe Park are saying their toilets and showers are closed so not an option for tent people like me

Or me John!
I'm looking round the area for B & B but not found anything at a reasonable price, I suppose it's because its near Barnard Castle. As you say John not practical for campers if the toilets and showers will not be available.
The other problem is - will it still be on given the current situation is not getting any better?

[Jez]

Surely their facilities will be online by the time of our 'Treat'.

Perhaps my 'dining buddy' will make some pressing enquiries to the same and let us all know, as it may have a negative impact on the number of Mokers who can attend, and that would be an awful shame !

If the event still takes place , I will probably join "Camping & caravan club " who have a camp site 6 mins away from Doe Park. Then I can get discount rates at their sites all season

Hi John,

I'll give the Doe Park a call in the morning and see what the score is. If it remains the same I'll go for plan B and join with you !

Best for 21

Thanks. Lets just hope it can go ahead

[Jez]

So John

I spoke with Doepark staff, and they said toilets and showers are closed at the moment, because the Park is actually closed, but they hope the shower block etc to be open by the time we are scheduled to be there. They said they would update their website and facebook page as soon as there was a change.

So I for one am going to stick with plan A for the foreseeable future.
