Kids area

In the shade, bring the toys and there will be face painting, for all ages of course :) A movie will be available in the little cottage for the evening so the children can chill together.  

 

Weather
We won't know until the days before, Central Portugal weather is unpredictable. It could be blue skies and hot or rainy and cold. Let us all imagine 4 days of beautiful weather. 

​

Options for accommodation: 

Campavan or Tent - there are spots across the land for vans and a camping area.

There are two shower areas, so sometimes you might need to wait and get to know someone in a small queue :) 

We have some tents, first come first serve.

 

What to bring

If travelling from afar: torch, water bottle, food and drinks you know you love and need, clothes for all possibilities.

If local: food dishes, cakes, drinks to add to the mixing pot, cushions, chairs and blankets to set on, your own set off plates, cups and cutlery for ease.  

​​

AirBnbs in Fornos de Algodres if you camping is not your thing.

Link to all options here. 

​​

Food

We will make food together and local people can add to the mixing pot with whatever they wish to bring for each meal. There is one main kitchen anyone can use if something specific is needed for your body to hum. 

 

Drinks ​

The bar will have some local Battle Hound home brewed beer to get the party going. Please bring drinks to add to the bar or whatever soft drinks you fancy so we can keep the bar flowing. 

​​​

Getting here 

Pdf. with all details. I can link you up with other people if you wish to hire a car, come with another etc. 

 

If you have any other ideas, want to join in the preparation etc. just let me know.
