[#1757134]

Thinking of a camping barn or bunkhouse type thing but preferably not [i]too[/i] basic - sleeping up to about 30 people - would be good if there was camping/fire possibilities too, and ideally reasonably secluded so we can make a little noise (nothing too crazy). Good biking nearby would be a bonus.

First weekend in September.

Anyone got any recommendations? Ta.

Must be the lakes? Marthrown of Mabie would be a great location for you...

Doesn't have to be I suppose - just easy for most people to get to. Hmmm....

Thanks for the suggestion.

Ah it's £1500 for exclusive use for a weekend - maybe too much. Looks ace though...

Must be said, it could do with a bit of a clean, but it's a proper laugh. it does sleep far more than 30 in total I think so you may be able to get away with partial use?

http://www.activity-centre.com/

It's a full on outdoor activity centre, but they will do parties etc. Has a bar on site as well. Handyish for Borrowdale, Whinlatter, Skiddaw etc. If you fancy a morning or afternoon off riding then get the centre to arrange an activity for you - the ghyll scrambling is class, take a wetsuit!

First weekend in Sept would probably avoid school trip season with it being early in the school year.

Surely if it is your 30th weekend in the Lakes you have found somewhere on the last 29 weekends that you can use again.
