Whats the deal with parking? do we get to park right outside the door of our self catering chalet or is there a wee trek with our gear?
i only ask cos it might limit how much stuff i pack

I hope it's like last year where you could park right outside. That was sweet.
But i dont know about this place.

Can you not just bring the same amount of stuff you usually would and make a couple of extra trips to your car?
Or are you thinking of bringing your own 42" telly or something

Hemsby was awful for parking if you got in around 7-8 in the evening.
Spent the first half hour of the last two blocs looking for a space.
Should be much easier this time as there looks like loads of parking on google maps... though prob a mile from the chalet:)

there has always been plenty of parking at the last few ATPs.. naturally some chalets are closer than others

Some of the chalets are right next to the car park, but as evilS says, most of the chalets are quite a way from the car park.
everything on wheels FTW.
Bangface last year was wicked, parked the car, ends up our chalet was right next to it. BONUS.

Argh tell me about it! We did a lot of cursing and trying to navigate that little overflow bit last year...
We only got a parking space due to sheer determination...and even getting that nearly made us get in a row with some dude who was standing in the one spot left - but not actually holding it for anyone!!

So whats the deal when you get there then... My mate booked our tickets so I'm not sure if we're allocated a chalet before we get there.
Is it a case of parking up somewhere, getting our wristbands, and then parking up at the chalets or whats the story?

park up, room leader signs you in gets your bands etc, gets room key and then go to chalet via car i think.
dont quote me. as per bf last yr. =]
there might be some deposit paying for rooms involved at the gettin your bands stage.
