I'm hoping my knee problems will be sorted out by the new year, and with that in mind I'm thinking of a trip to
http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/details.asp?revid=4636
sometime in February subject to the final dates being OK with the site owner (as its out of season, but he will open up for small groups I believe).

There will be a couple of stove collectors there (trust me, they are good people, just have a thing about lighting liquid fuel stoves and lamps is all) and I'm sure they would be happy to meet up with some bushcrafters :) plus the site is camp fire and hammock friendly :cool:

As said before in another post, the site is near Neath and motorway/rail links so even on foot its only a few miles to walk from the railway station, or a few quid in a taxi.

Toward the end of February - start of March ? I'll get there, even if its on a zimmer frame :rolleyes:

Hi guys.
Names Rowen and i'm very new to this forum. Excuse me if i'm breaking any protocol by jumping straight in. I live in Cardiff and am eager to connect with fellow Bushcraft folk in the area. I can vouch for Lonewolf campsite. Have visited a lot and Ian the land owner is a right gem. Nice spot next to the river and a good few trees to hammock up. There are some great spots to wild camp around the Taffs well area just north of Cardiff. If anyone is interested in some exploration for some suitable sites hit me up : )

Rowen, welcome to the forum
I dont know whether you noticed but that thread is 12 years old, have a look at

meetups-and-social chatter and look in the welsh group, some recent entries in there.
