Glentress | May 23-25 (inc) | Taking bookings now

Post by HannahW »

Hi all,

Pretty much what it says on the tin!
We have the bunk barn, for 3 nights (its the second bank holiday weekend in May).
£60pp and I have 25 spaces.

This is a popular spot and one we visit on a very regular basis. People generally bike at Glentress and Innerleithen from here.

Payment secures your bed!

Hmmm, just had a look and I think it's going to put Glentress pretty much out of action for the whole of Saturday and Innerleithen for Saturday and Sunday.
Simon is going to do some more digging tomorrow but it maybe that I cancel.

Thanks for raising it luggster.

Yes, but means stopping somewhere else and our usual place near there was sold.

Thanks Hannah. Glentress weekend was great last year!

Perhaps we could just go a different weekend in May? Going over a bank holiday is a little difficult in anycase ( for me at least) as already have commitments an plans.

I agree with David - I can't do the BH weekend but could do the following one - 30th May-1st June, or even 27th-29th June (weekend before the Tour lands at York).

We had a fantastic weekend last year - thanks for the suggestion Hannah !
