Hi
I noted in a post from CFB (I think) asking for any interest in a possible spare place with tuition.
Well I am a newby with no off road experience in a car at all, and this does seem like the ideal chance.
If all places are taken, as I live pretty close to the site, is it ok to come along and have a look/take somephotos/say hello.
Cheers
Pavs

Hi Pavs, I will put you in as '1st reserve' should the tuition place come up.
Even if it doesn't you are welcome to come along in the non-tuition group (lots of places) and have a dabble at some of the easier routes, there will be plenty of folks around who will be willing to give you a bit of guidance. 2007 D3 TDV6 GS Auto

Agree 100% with Andy and as I will have wife and 3 kids in tow, I can guarantee that no difficult parts will be ventured into, so you are more than welcome to pootle round with us if you want.

Don't know how to link to the maps so here are some screen shots of the place itself, just to get you in the mood...
