Lovely facilities at stretcholt. Though not sure about parking as was quite limited when we went . But is really easy to get to and a super place.

personally i dont think theres enough in the sw.. i went to the chaps show at stretcholt last weekend, lovely place but parking in the winter wouldnt happen its all on grass.
id personally like things nearer, but thats me... were fast running out of places in devon.
ive no idea of running cost for places like the grange etc..

West Wilts, possible - but expensive - class prices would have to go up, but it does have the parking for the winter months.
Tall Trees - expensive twice the price of Poltimore.
Strecholt and Combe Park - will investigate both.
Hand Stadium we cannot have clarification on dates because of BSJA coming first. Badgworth does not have the parking.
Parking is the issue for SWPA because of the numbers we get at our shows. If we cut the classes and get less entries - then the price of class entries has to go up to cover it. Otherwise you run at a loss which SWPA does not do.
Keep going guys - had several other suggestions PM'd to me - thank you

Condense the schedule with qualifiers ( P(UK), BSPS, etc) and I'm sure people wouldn't mind entry prices going up. By going to places with 'bad' facilities such as parking and working in area, you wont get the people there, no matter how much the venue costs. Rather you than me lol.
