See this Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/stivesseptemberfestival for the latest info on the Music & Art Festival in St Ives (as well as their website https://www.stivesseptemberfestival.co.uk/ ) which runs from 13-27 September so luckily part of it coincides with our Meet

 

[Jules1824]

We can't wait to stay at Polmanter Touring Park https://www.polmanter.com/ this September & would love to have some fellow Funsters join us too! It'll be our first time staying there but it's award winning, has great facilities & excellent reviews so coupled with being within walking distance of fabulous St Ives we think it should be great.
The Park have kindly agreed to a £5 per night reduction on their normal rates as well as no extra charges for bringing along up to 2 dogs (saving an additional £27.50-£38.50 or more) for this Meet - this applies to 5, 6 or 7 night stays with starting date Monday 22 September making rates £26.50 per night for Electric Grass, £29 per night for Electric Hardstanding or Grass Multi-serviced, or £32.50 per night for Hard-standing Multi-serviced pitches after discount. No extra charges either for a tow car or attached awning but Quest Screenhouses or similar are not to be used.
UPDATE 30/3 - whilst the core meet dates are as above the discount code will also apply to a couple of days either side when booking online so long as 5 nights or more are booked plus for an extended stay it should be possible to arrange this by phone at the same discounted rate which should help those coming from other events. Booking will open as soon as the discount code is set up with everyone being able to choose the type & location of their pitch. There's an excellent tool here https://www.makeamap.co/map/54f4c01880110ec870407bad/home so you can see each pitch & the outlook by clicking on the pitches.

There should be the opportunity for us to gather in the daytime (when no food or drink is served) in the Stable Bar & to have a reserved area in the Bar for drinks together in the evenings if wanted - of course as always there is no obligation to join in.
Whilst some may wish to relax on the Park or explore by car, it's a 30 minute 1.5 mile pleasant downhill walk into St Ives via a footpath at the back of the Park (to Steeple Lane) with the option of a taxi back (or weekday bus shuttle see below) if walking back up doesn't appeal at the end of the day. Once down in the town of St Ives there are lots of places to visit including the Tate Art Gallery (many free entry galleries too), Barbara Hepworth's Museum & Sculpture Garden in her former home, Leach Pottery, St Ives Museum, pleasant shopping in the historic cobbled streets with lots of tempting food & drink establishments, walk on the 7 beaches or just enjoy a coffee sat looking over the harbour or sea. We've explored St Ives many times & even in the depths of winter it has been enjoyable so hoping it's even better in September.
UPDATE: Just found there's a town Festival too https://www.stivesseptemberfestival.co.uk/
There are regular buses from the Malakoff https://www.google.com/maps/place/Malakoff+bus+station/@50.211025,-5.4813349,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x486add5c85a4046d:0x78842a32e6656582!8m2!3d50.211025!4d-5.47876!16s/g/11rsptfs4_?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MDMyNC4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw== & a good train service just below there for scenic journeys to explore further afield to nearby Carbis Bay beach (walkable too), Penzance, Truro & a favourite of ours (bit more of a journey) Falmouth including Pendennis Castle (EH) & the Maritime Museum.

** UPDATE - schedule for the private shuttle bus service from the Park to St Ives town https://royalbuses.co.uk/bus-timetables-st-ives/bus-service-st-ives-to-polmanter-camp-site/ shows there will be a limited chargeable service for the Monday-Friday of the Meet dates - waiting on cost but this should enable more to join us all ***

If you may wish to book at the Fun discounted rates for this Meet then please post here as "Interested" with the type of pitch you'd like & for how many nights then I'll PM with how to book.

When viewing the video please note that at this off peak time of year the pool is not open but the Stable Bar will be open nightly serving a full food/drink menu - it is one of the best times of the year to visit St Ives without all the crowds.

Hi - good to hear that you wish to join us all - please click on the envelope in the blue bar at this top of this web page as you have a message with all the details on how to book

 

[Hils and Glenns]

Wombles Really sorry but just realised that this rally clashes with a family event that we really can't miss. Bit gutted because we were looking forward to this. So we have to drop out. I'll call the site and cancel.

Not got 20 minutes spare to watch this as prepping to run an event! Please can you summarise what these influencers are trying to get across?

They are waxing lyrical about the quality of the site and it's facilities and staff. They paid £50 a night which makes this rally a bargain. The only thing they could find to complain about was the dog wash shampoo was empty.
One point to note is that their pitch was on a slope and needed higher ramps than they had ( small fiamma yellow ones)

Thank you - agree that the Meet price being from £26.50 per unit per night (on grass) with EHU is great value especially with their facilities & in that location at that time of year They rarely offer discounts so we appreciate that the Park owners have agreed to welcome us Funsters this time & hope we can make it a regular one like Norden Farm Meet - both in our favourite areas of the UK.
With regards to the pitches each one is described with a photo here https://www.makeamap.co/map/54f4c01880110ec870407bad/home so hopefully we can all pick what suits us best (some are described as flat or having views) - entering your desired dates brings up what's left availability wise.
In case you are tempted I'll add you to the Private Chat with all the booking info - please just let me know if you do book.

There's an excellent tool here https://www.makeamap.co/map/54f4c01880110ec870407bad/home so you can see each pitch & the outlook by clicking on the pitches.

There should be the opportunity for us to gather in the daytime (when no food or drink is served) in the Stable Bar & to have a reserved area in the Bar for drinks together in the evenings if wanted - of course as always there is no obligation to join in.
Whilst some may wish to relax on the Park or explore by car, it's a 30 minute 1.5 mile pleasant downhill walk into St Ives via a footpath at the back of the Park (to Steeple Lane) with the option of a taxi back (or weekday bus shuttle see below) if walking back up doesn't appeal at the end of the day. Once down in the town of St Ives there are lots of places to visit including the Tate Art Gallery (many free entry galleries too), Barbara Hepworth's Museum & Sculpture Garden in her former home, Leach Pottery, St Ives Museum, pleasant shopping in the historic cobbled streets with lots of tempting food & drink establishments, walk on the 7 beaches or just enjoy a coffee sat looking over the harbour or sea. We've explored St Ives many times & even in the depths of winter it has been enjoyable so hoping it's even better in September.
UPDATE: Just found there's a town Festival too https://www.stivesseptemberfestival.co.uk/
There are regular buses from the Malakoff https://www.google.com/maps/place/Malakoff+bus+station/@50.211025,-5.4813349,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x486add5c85a4046d:0x78842a32e6656582!8m2!3d50.211025!4d-5.47876!16s/g/11rsptfs4_?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MDMyNC4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw== & a good train service just below there for scenic journeys to explore further afield to nearby Carbis Bay beach (walkable too), Penzance, Truro & a favourite of ours (bit more of a journey) Falmouth including Pendennis Castle (EH) & the Maritime Museum.

** UPDATE - schedule for the private shuttle bus service from the Park to St Ives town https://royalbuses.co.uk/bus-timetables-st-ives/bus-service-st-ives-to-polmanter-camp-site/ shows there will be a limited chargeable service for the Monday-Friday of the Meet dates - waiting on cost but this should enable more to join us all ***

If you may wish to book at the Fun discounted rates for this Meet then please post here as "Interested" with the type of pitch you'd like & for how many nights then I'll PM with how to book.

When viewing the video please note that at this off peak time of year the pool is not open but the Stable Bar will be open nightly serving a full food/drink menu - it is one of the best times of the year to visit St Ives without all the crowds.

Not got 20 minutes spare to watch this as prepping to run an event! Please can you summarise what these influencers are trying to get across?

Yes, I know but as we’re near St Ives I only mentioned that one. I love their cards and usually purchase online.
