Devon & Cornwall monthly meet April (Easter)

Post by the janner vanner » Wed Mar 09, 2011 9:47 am

This is a funny one as it falls on Easter Sunday, so seeing as most peps spend easter with family, I have decided to have the meet on Easter MONDAY instead.
I thought this would be a good time to have a BBQ at Yelverton on the old airbase, meeting up in one of the plane bays. Lots of room for the kids to go wild, and ample free parking.

That' on Monday 25th April starting from 10.30 am.

Who's up for it?

Thank you Lorna [Doone] for the links to the history and info on the aerodrome

I know that Bob, but I don't know if I can persuade him. We'll see.

You can always drop him off at The Rock in Yelverton or the Drake's Manor Inn in Buckland - both nice pubs with good beers. 8)

I've had a request to see if we could make this a week end meet. A couple of our fellow bongoliers ae going to stay at the Plume of Feathers at Princetown for a couple of nights over the Easter.
They would welcome other bongoliers to join them. The Plume of Feathers has a camp site at the rear of the pub. Theres no hook up, so i would be a self sufficient stay.
They have 75 tent pitches and 10 caravanette pitches, so it looks quite limitd for space. However, they have two Alpine Bunk House which accommodate 38 bunks which is made up of 10, 4 and 2 dorms all with showers toilets and cooking facilities.

This would incorporate the BBQ at Yelverton.

If you are at a lost as to what to do this easter, then perhaps this could be the answer.

I'm not organising this, just mearly pointing you to what could be an Easer to remember.

You can contact the Plume of Feathers on 01822 890240 or email pataweir@aol.com
