BennyB Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 With regards to access, in the past people have got larger vehicles up to the main car park. but as Dom has already said proberbly not too good for a coach. How big is the coach? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j999dpt Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 when we went as a club a few lads got a 7.5 ton box lorry into the main area. not sure about a coach they're a bit lower ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taff Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 General Confusion, in regards to access I do seam to remember that the Wigan gang in the Howlin' Wolf series (Jon Saley and friends) getting an old bus on site when it was called the scrappy racing challenge a couple of years ago. I think I am correct in saying this, but I will ask and check or unless someone can correct me with getting confused with a challenge they did near there. But I have also seen an articulated truck with a 40' curtain sider up there, carrying the trucks and sleeping quarters. I will try and confirm my comment, Back in a bit. Taff.

BennyB Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 I also remember seeing an artic up the top. Have you used the coach at all, is it any good off the road. The track leading to the top carpark is quite solid, there is a corner just before the hill which may be a little tight for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holyzeus Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 I only problem i see is the corner Benny B has just mentioned the rest of the road is do-able Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zardos Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 With regards to access, in the past people have got larger vehicles up to the main car park. but as Dom has already said proberbly not too good for a coach.How big is the coach? It's 40ft long and 13ft 4inches high It also has a ferry lift system fitted that helps a bit with the ground clearance. Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 It's 40ft long and 13ft 4inches high There must be short people sleeping in that coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saley Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 We took Glynn's coach down to Slindon last November, we did unload at the visitors car park to give us a bit more ground clearance because the bedford is very low in the middle, you should be fine with yours steve.

portal pete Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 What's the site access like for Large vehicles ? We looked at getting our truck in there, 40ft long 13ft high. We could only see one branch being a problem. Take a ladder and saw in case. might save us taking it down later in the year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
