I don't suppose £8 per head per night is particularly steep but the minimum charge of £160 means we would have to be pretty certain of numbers before booking
I didn't notice the price. I'd have been more inclined to camp next to it anyway. £160 means that a minimum of 20 people would be required and we've *never* had that many people on any expedition, usually only half that.

If there is significant support for an expedition either to Cwm Cywarch (Arans) or another to Rhyd-Ddu I will make inquiries but as I have very little contact these days with either club I don't want to bother members I don't know unless there is a real prospect of a booking.
Personally I'd rather camp, and rather camp wild than on a site.

No minimum of 10. (It is £8 per night). So we should be able to make those sort of numbers if not too many decide to camp in preference. Didn't follow up the camping so no idea what those charges were.

Cheap. £2/head; £1/child, student, DoE. Facilities are toilets and drinking water. But of course if some of us are in the barn the showers would be available as well. -- Fran If you need my email address please ask.

No, only 10. Biggest expedition we've had for a long time. Possibly the biggest ever.

And you had cake too...
Damn!
I feel a proverb coming on.
