We met up with fellow members from a website called Wild Camping , this was our first meet so we did not know what to expect on arrival but the ethos of the site is it's basically a community of people who travel the UK and Europe and share POI's. Camp Stops & Aires etc. they have visited
We have joined a few forums over the last year or so mainly for the informative information other members of these sites share with one and other
The venue was the Fox and Goose http://www.foxandgoosegreywell.co.uk/
and the proprietor's let you use the campsite to the rear side of the pub for free in return for using the pub/restaurant for a drink, or a spot of hot or cold food.
There were about 30 vans and quite a few people attended and they were very friendly in welcoming us
It was a very nice vibe and we had a great time. our type of people plenty of merriment and copious amounts of drink
There is another walk a few miles through some wonderful countryside and we found the other end of the tunnel
The walk along the canal towards Odiham is beautiful and the water crystal clear
I
Further up the canal walk are the remains of King John's Castle built in 1207
The river Whitewater also runs through the village along the Greywell fen and there is an old mill no longer working but another fantastic walk on a sunny autumn day
So in all we had a fantastic stay the Indian summer continued and met some smashing people, we packed up and left on the Monday and said our goodbyes to the WC community, many of them were going onto Stonehenge for the autumn equinox
Our thanks to Penny for organising the meet and all the members of WC
We will definitely be returning to this place next year after our travels in Europe
