Hi Volks,

Eircooled are having a meet in Strandhill Camping Park on the weekend of the 25 - 27 of May next, The Park is beside the sea at Strandhill, 8 miles from Sligo and I have spoken to Tom Corcoran of the Caravan Park and the week end of the 25-27th May is not prebooked to any great extent and he can accomodate all comers, if he had a idea of numbers he can rope off an area so that we can all be together.

Camping fees will be €17 per unit plus €2 for two persons and €4 for lecky, if there are sufficient persons camping he'll drop the sum to €20 per night.

Strandhill is world famous for surfing, there are two mighty pubs within staggering distance of the Camping park and the beach, plenty of good food places.

You can google the camping site by simply "camping strandhill" and you can have a look.

Put the above dates in your diary.

The Strand pub and the Countess are within staggering distance, the Strand has a Chinese and a French restaurant upstairs, the Countess does grub as well.

Might I suggest a run from Strandhill to Lissadel and a tour of the garden and the house - was out there last Friday and well worth a visit.

UPDATE POSTED ON NBOC WEBSITE

Update on Strandhill meet

Camp site is available and prices will be €17.00 per bus/bug €2 for extra person and Lecky €4 rounded down to €20 per night depending on numbers

We'll have our own area and there are two excellent pubs close by within staggering distance, Beirnes strand bar and the Countess - also there is a good chinese and a french restaurant, there is also a very good pizza take away as well.

Plenty of beach walking and a good mountain to climb (Knocknarea) with a Cairn on the top being the reputed burial place of Queen Maeve of Connaught who lies buried facing North having , I climb it every morning before work (I live close by) the beach is great for surfing but is closed to swimmers as there are currents and traps so Life guards are not provided by the County Council anymore.


When you arrive in Sligo follow signs for Strandhill or Airport, on arrival in Strandhill take the turn for the airport and then take a left up an avenue to the campsite, we'll have signs to shepherd you to our area.
