dates are arriving Thursday 11 July 1pm onwards (normal arrivals are 3pm) leaving Monday 15 July by 11am. This is this years thread https://www.motorhomefun.co.uk/foru...nds-end-park-bridport-12-16-july-2018.169467/ & although not the biggest gathering of Funsters it was our best location yet on a campsite with full facilities, fantastic views, two beaches, loads to see & do & great company 
Prices for 4 nights including EHU are £88.80 on grass pitch or £114 on gravel pitch. Site map here https://highlandsendholidaypark.co.uk/files/2019/02/2019-Highlands-Map-website.pdf . This includes 2 adults, motorhome, awning or Quest mesh screen house (gazebos not allowed) and car. Booking these 4 nights includes 10% off their per night prices. As they are guaranteed to be fully booked at that time of year there was no room for negotiation on the pitch prices but they have agreed to one dog to be free per booking (maximum of two dogs allowed) for Funsters for this Meet - this year that saved £3 per night & the one dog free offer also applies for the duration of your stay if you extend your Meet booking to more nights
There is a one person discount - £12 off for the 4 nights and will automatically apply to the booking online or on the phone.
**************** UPDATE 4th June 2019 *************
Just had an email from Highlands End confirming that there are now no more pitches suitable for motorhomes for the whole duration of the Meet as fully booked for Friday & Saturday night but some availability for Thursday night & Sunday night. The campsite may get some cancellations but if anyone wants to do the Festival https://www.jurassicfields.com/ then it looks like their basic camping is still available to book in the tickets section - don't forget to add a live-in vehicle pass for motorhomes. John @scottie is booked into Festival camping so you wouldn't be the only Funsters & if you let us know we can add you to a PM group for this Meet (as well as us posting on the forum thread) so we can all meet up & you will be welcome to join in with anything that is organised. We don't know exactly where the Festival camping is but it's near the Festival field so probably a good walk from Highlands End or a short taxi hop (from £5 -£7.50 each way) so still possible to join us for the Thursday & Sunday nights in Martin's Bar & sure we will all keep bumping into each other in the Festival field, at the beaches & in Bridport
Festival tickets here https://www.tickettailor.com/events...iSYKTLGHeZ28pSRbW4dkWz31e_w8itb2ye2DxReGYNV-E - book early for the best price as these will increase nearer to the Festival date. Earlybird prices were from £17.50 - £30 per person but now £22.50-£35 & still great value.
