Oxfordshooter Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 Just wondering if anybody on PW is going to, or knows about the Bushcraft UK forum's annual get together called Bushmoot? Bushmoot is: "... an opportunity for individuals and families with an interest in Bushcraft to gather together and expand their knowledge through mutual skill sharing. The Moot runs for nearly two weeks and you're welcome to come for all of it or any part you feel like. The main workshop days, we call the 'Core' days, are in the middle of the Moot. It doesn’t matter whether you are experienced or new to bushcraft, everyone is welcome. The days either side of the ‘Core’ are camping days which give individuals the opportunity to practise their Bushcraft skills, attend courses, socialise, visit the local area or just relax and enjoy the natural setting. The site is nearly 100 acres, mainly of beautiful woodland with a sandy soil. There are toilets, showers, a washing up area around the edges of the main building and there are a number of fresh water taps away from the main building. You can camp nearly anywhere, there are quiet areas and areas where people stay up a bit longer and are a bit louder..." I went with my family last year and had a cracking time, the place is definitely not full of antis or hippies and it's a great value break in South Wales. This year I'll be going on my own for over a week and can't wait to chill out in the woods, learn some bushcraft skills and spend the evenings up in the 'naughty corner' which is basically a BYO pub in the middle of the woods.

TIGHTCHOKE Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 I've heard of it but never got around to going! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick miller Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 I went once, when my personal hero Mors Kochanski was giving talks. It was fantastic if only for that. I'd love to go again but can't face the journey in a 97 plate defender! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
