Mid-Devon woodland meet-up

[littlebiglane]

I am negotiating access to a 180 acre (I think) private woodland in Mid-Devon. Anyone interested in a meet-up?

 

[ANDYRAF]

When, where and how long can we stay before they make us leave?

 

[Humpback]

Is it open to grockles too?
Regards
Alan

I am interested, when and where?

 

[littlebiglane]

Still in early stages of talks. Might just be for a weekend for him to get used to the idea. He might also be open to the idea of 'renting' part of it for us bushcrafters. But I need to buy him a few more beers and talk it through. he is also curious about bushcraft

It is near Crediton.

I'll keep people posted. It might take a few weeks to speak to him again.

Sounds good....Am interested..

 

[shocks]

oh sounds great. I'm in and interested in the renting bit too

Nope. Not open to grockles. It is private, no public rights of way and as such is pretty much untouched (except for the fact it is managed as he runs a firewood business). It is mainly deciduous I believe.

I think that Humpback is asking if BCUK bushcrafters from 'outside' of Devon are as welcome as Devonians.

I'm interested if you're letting us Cornish folk join in

oooh. that's a tricky one. you wouldn't go and steal the wood would you?

Sorry, could not resist that one! Of course you are welcome!

I read on one thread that someone with 'long hair' is not allowed into cornwall. if they let someone with long hair out then I'm interested.

Hi, cant belive it this is right on my doorstep (small world). very intrested sounds great
Hardest thing i've found is a place to 'go and play', no fires allowed on dartmoor (not to many trees on the moor itself)

getting out's not a problem.....




but they may not let you back in again!

 

[Dave Budd]

sounds interesting.

I'm just trying to think who I know near Crediton with a firewood business:Thinkingo I guess it depends on your definition of 'near'. My woods are near crediton, but they ain't 180acres!

what sort of plans do you have there? organised camps or pop in when you like style of things?

 

[shocks]

Liitlebiglane, Did you get anywhere with this?

 

[ANDYRAF]

Liitlebiglane, Did you get anywhere with this?

Are negotiations proceeding or are we stymied once again.

 

[pumbaa]

Pumbaa

 

[littlebiglane]

Have not had a chance to meet up with the guy for most of the summer. Hope to change that soon.

As soon as I know I'll let you know.
