Geoff (DrJones) and I have just started a weeks holiday and have been deciding what to do with it when we thought a trip down to Berry Pomeroy would be great especially as the castle closes to the public in November (I love these spontaneous decisions ;D). We have decided to camp down there for one night so that we could see the castle during the day & then also do a night-time vigil. We have managed to find a campsite that is still open till the end of October, which was lucky otherwise we may have been camping in the haunted wood (DrJone's idea).We thought this would be a good idea first of all because we can come and go without disturbing anyone, which is a bit of an issue if staying at a B&B and its a much cheaper alternative considering that we won't be spending a lot of time sleeping. Camping in October is not for the fainted hearted though the last time we went camping it was in January. Obviously it too late for anyone to arrange to join us, however we will be recording the events & a full report and pictures will appear here, once we've dried out ;D Wish us luck. ;D

You'll have a great time and it definitely gives you something to measure other nights by.
Im feeling very envious right now.

I'm really looking forward to the trip. It'll be our last chance to see the castle now till it re-opens next year. I'm sure when your sitting a in a nice warm house watching telly & we're standing outside the castle in the wind & rain shouting from Maggie to show herself you'll probably feel less envious . It'll be fun though ;D

Just got back from Berry Pomeroy about an hour ago and awsome is just not enough to discribe the castle. We will be putting a full report on the forum shortly but for now the only word I can think of is WOW, especially for our night time vigil, where both Geoff and myself have now leant the meaning of fear . What an amazing experience. We will definately be going back to Berry Pomeroy again. Thanks for the welcome home notice, Steven. So you weren't even a little jealous then We'll all be there next time. The more the better. ;D
