Bushes Farm Caravan Park
The Winton Methodist Family Camping Club held its first meeting of the season at Bushes Farm in Stourpaine near Blandford from April 28th to May 1st. The weather was, of course mixed, as it was a Bank Holiday weekend with chilly wind and some cloud and rain but in general the days were dry with sun. It takes a lot worse than this to put off the 22 hardy campers in the 2 family tents, camper van and 7 caravans which attended the rally.
The site offered an excellent flat field and modern facilities, all for the fantastic value of £8 per unit per night. Alan and Mary were the stewards and on the Saturday evening the members enjoyed a communal meal, cooked on their own bbq’s and served in the marquee kindly provided by Andy. This was followed by an hilarious game in which the four teams had to model everyday articles out of playdough. Sunday saw us visit the Methodist Church in Blandford for their morning service where we were made very welcome, our attendance doubling that of the local congregation. This was followed by an excellent Sunday Lunch in the restaurant of The White Horse in the village.
