Bartons Point Next Year?

Hi all, we went down to Bartons Point yesterday so i could take my new kayak for a spin and take the dog for a walk. It's recently re opened under new management and it seems they're really putting some effort into making it work, they're doing some nice food in the cafe and a massive roast dinner for £5.
I was talking to the woman running it and she is really keen to have us down there, not sure what the camping costs are yet but i'm sure they won't take the piss as the use of the boating lake was £5 all day but because i was only in the water for a couple of hours she said next time would be free! (Last time i think it was £5 an hour and £10 all day)
They have a few kayaks to rent out and an instructor there too. I didn't mention that we like to have small fires but she seemed pretty laid back and would probably let us just get on with it

I said i'd put something up on the forum and that we'll hopefully camp there next year.

sounds bloody awesome to me!
Did you notice what the toilets were like dude? any showers? I dont care, but i know a few of the ladies (and probably gents) would be interested to know if they are any good...
I miss bartons point, its local but feels like a proper holiday...
nice work dude!

They have a shower block and toilets, next time i go down i'll check them out and find out their camping Tariff. I'm sure they were ok last time we all went down there.

Sounds like a plan! I've quite missed the place........................

AND, do you mean you have purchased a new kayak without TELLING ME??????????????????
