Camping fees, food cost, etc. I spent an overnight there with the Transhit Owners club the other year. I was there less than 24 hours and it cost me almost £70!

£40 to get in
£15 for hook up
£12 for two portions of fish and chips

that does sound mighty steep... apart from the fish and chips.. you pay a fiver at most chippies nowadays for a piece of pollock an chips!!

we camped there a couple of times to try a new tent (without hook up) and i never remember it being that expensive!! im sure we paid a tenner a night!!

Been to a few car shows, never camped, always a good day out......food is expensive but your a 'captive audience'........
