All Saints’ Camping Weekend 2024

Fri 14th - Sun 16th June

Join us as we this take this great opportunity for All Saints' Church Family to return for a relaxing weekend together at Lockerley Water Farm in Hampshire.

Bring your tent, campervan or caravan, or alternatively opt for one of the non-camping options.

This pretty campsite is in the Test Valley, in an area of outstanding natural beauty. It is owned by Hampshire Christian Trust and used solely as a venue for church groups. We will have exclusive use of the site for our weekend away.

There is a field area where we can socialise and the children can play. Two large barns house table tennis, air hockey, table football and pool tables, so bring your table tennis bats & balls, as well as games to play on the field. There is also a self serve area with microwave, hot water and washing up facilities. If the preceding weeks have not been too dry, we will be able to gather together around the campfire. A small number of well behaved dogs on leads are welcome.

You should know that:

· we will have to clean before we leave so that the site is ready for the next group's arrival. Everyone will need to be involved in this.

· the number of EHU pitches is quite limited! But don't panic - there are electric sockets and fridges in the barn for general use!

- cabins are unpowered and sleep up to 10 in bunk beds. Cabins do NOT have bathroom facilities but washrooms are available in the barn. You will need to bring your bedding and cooking facilities. Low level light is provided but you may wish to bring a torch!

- dorms have electricity and sleep up to 10 in bunk beds. Each dorm has an en-suite toilet, sink and electricity. You will need to bring your bedding and cooking facilities.

£60 per family for the weekend

Do ask Claire if you've got any questions. Alternatively contact us.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Lockerley is dependant on volunteers and they have a Volunteer Day at each end of the season to set up and then pack away the site.
Could you help out? Please let Claire know if you can.

It's a great way to see the site and find out what to expect.

They say:
'As a reminder our volunteer day is fixed in the calendar for Saturday 27th April, come rain or shine!  Thank you to those camps who have already confirmed they will send volunteers; we will send out more reminders and details nearer the date.  Note we have regular volunteers on site on Thursdays each week, please feel free to socialise these dates and if anyone is interested please contact Simon at operations@hampshirechristiantrust.org.uk for more information.  All skills at any level, including those with no particular skills but willing to work hard and get involved, are welcome.'
