Caravan site

[trebleone]

I've been searching for contact details for the temporary caravan site that is located on the playing fields off Horcott Road, on the left-hand side, a couple of hundred yards after turning off the A417, but so far, I've drawn a blank.
If anyone has used this site or knows anything about it, any information would be much appreciated.

TIA

Thanks, Havoc - do you happen to know if they run the site themselves or do they just rent out their field to another organization to run the camping facility?

Your response might have been useful, Brevet, if it weren't for the fact that your links refer to a completely different campsite at the opposite end of the village - Fairford Town FC is off Cinder Lane at the eastern end of the village, whereas the site I'm enquiring about is on the playing fields off Horcott Road at the western end of the village - AFAIK, there is no connection between the two where camping is concerned (and I've done plenty of googling); so it would seem that your sarcasm is somewhat misplaced

I use the campsite at cinder Lane quite often, and walk past the caravan park to the show. They USED to be part of the same team, but now have gone separate ways. It fills up very quickly from Thursday and gives a great view of arrival a/c coming in from the break to land!

My apologies.
Guess I've gotten to be too cynical , due to the number of people who post on here who ask questions which have either been answered / linked to several times already or could easily be answered by a few seconds googling.
I also assumed that FTYFC shared their ground with FTFC.

OK, Brevet - you're forgiven ..... and I understand the reasons for your cynicism.

Anyhow, back to the question ... I have it in the back of my mind that the site on the Horcott Road playing fields may be run by the Caravan Club, however their website gives very little useful information to non-members and I'm loath to fork out £49 to join if it turns out that I'm wrong and it's nothing to do with them; so if anyone has used this site or knows any more about it, I'd be most grateful for any further info.

there are normally two temp sites on horcott road for riat

I think the one that you are talking about is the touring caravan club rally on the Fairford Youth Football Club field

your welcome

I spoke to the rally organiser on the youth football club last year and he told me it was the tourers and tents owners club rally, like you i had searched the net and could not find any info, i think it was £12.00 a year to join the tourers and tents owners club and then the rally fees on top
