Price for Lodges from Thursday night to Monday Morning

We have held accommodation costs for the third year! To secure a lodge, pay a deposit of £50 now (or £25 for a room in a lodge), and the balance by 30th September. The prices are:

• 4 Bedroom Lodge £300
• 3 Bedroom Lodge £250
• 2 Bedroom Lodge £200

Balances paid after 30th September will incur a 10% price rise, to:

• £330
• £275
• £220

And £100 for a room in a lodge, subject to availability.

This is a blatant attempt to get you all to book your accommodation in advance so that we can work on numbers. You can book a whole lodge or a bed space in a lodge.

And note, in order to book a lodge you must be signed up on this website, and you must have paid the convention fee.

Where’s the nearest Train Station?

There are two local train stations; Hilton Admiral and New Milton. According to their traintaxi entries, Hilton Admiral doesn't have a taxi rank or office nearby but recommends telephoning Admiral on 01425 277888, whereas New Milton does have a taxi rank or office nearby (Galleon on 01425 622222).

We suggest using either Christchurch or New Milton stations.

Lodge

There are two keys for each lodge, which require a £5 cash deposit each.

All the lodges we are using are located in the Meadow. In your pack will be a map showing the park layout and highlighting your chalet location and the location of the LARP chalets.

Each lodge has a number of twin or double rooms. Each room should have no more than two occupants. Sleeping in public areas of the camp or in the convention areas is forbidden.

The lodges all have equipped kitchens, with a cooker, microwave, dishwasher etc. There are saucepans etc, and a full fridge and freezer. There is a small welcome pack with some tea and coffee, and a dishwasher tablet, and if you need more tablets there will be some on the Ops Desk for a contribution to the charity tin. You’ll probably need to buy some bin bags, and we’ve always ended up buying a washing up brush.

Bedding is provided, but towels are not, nor is soap. Please ensure that, despite this deficiency, Sammy the Soapbar remains your friend.

There’s at least one TV with a DVD in each lodge.

You need to vacate your lodge by ten o’clock on Monday morning.  Please make sure you’ve washed up, and leave everything in a reasonable state and if you redistribute the furniture, please put it back.

Recycling facilities for glass, metal, paper and card are located behind the main building on the right hand side. If you take things there every time you go to the main building then the cleaners won’t be able to tell quite how much you’ve consumed.

What are the opening hours for the main building?

The building opens at 08.00 and closes at midnight. The bars will stop serving at 23.00, so make sure you get a round in before they close.

Can I take my own beer into the main building?

No. The site are remarkably tolerant of us eating chocolate, and limited snacks in their space, but please exercise restraint and common sense. They take a very dim view of people bringing their own alcohol.

Where do I get drink then?

There are two bars – the main bar and Smuggler’s retreat. Both will be used as game spaces, but you can still get in there and get a pint. Please don’t gawp excessively at the LARPers whilst you’re there, unless they encourage you.

Where do I get food?

There’s a shop on the site, but don’t get your hopes up. It’s closed, as is the launderette and the outdoor swimming pool. Also there’s no cashpoint.
There is a snack bar, which also does coffee, open most of the day. It’s very much the burger and chips variety of food. Smuggler’s Retreat has a larger menu, which includes vegetables and everything!

There are dispensing machines for cold drinks and chocolate in the main building.

There’s a Sainbury’s about fifteen minutes away, with a cashpoint, petrol station and pharmacy:

Tesco’s has an express store about half a mile away (number 1)

And a normal store (marked number 3 below) about 2.5 miles away

Is there accommondation available for disabled people?

Yes, there are Disabled Lodges -- please contact to discuss access, etc.
