Cali has been to Hereford

It was Steve's birthday on Sunday - so he got to choose where we went for the weekend!  He chose Lucksall Caravan and Camping Park near Hereford.  This is a private site that's affiliated to the Caravan & Motorhome Club and not one we've visited before.

The weather on Friday was awful, very windy and heavy rain so we didn't have the best of journeys.  Pitches are allocated, but ours was a lovely spacious pitch in The Oaks, near to one of the toilet blocks.  After setting up in the rain, which only takes about 15 minutes, the sun came out so we could dry everything.

On Saturday the forecast was for more showers and as we didn't want a wet walk we caught the bus into Hereford.  After a potter around a few walking shops and lunch at The Cosy Club we caught the bus back to the site to enjoy the afternoon sun.

Pitch 114 Lucksall

On Sunday the forecast was a dry morning and heavy rain in the afternoon so we set off in the morning for a walk to Fownhope.  About a mile into the walk we were caught in a heavy storm and got soaked so decided to retrace our steps back to the site to dry out.  By mid afternoon the sun came out (not the weather that had been forecast) and we managed to get everything dry.  As everywhere was so muddy after the storm we decided to go to the cafe/bar on site to sit by the river with a drink rather than attempt another walk.

On Monday we had to be off the site by 11.00am so had a lazy start to the day before packing away and travelling home.
