Back to glorious Pemroke for the second time in under a month! For the bank holiday long weekend this time. Same campsite. Same pub. Can’t really go wrong, unless people have a preference for something different (I’ll be in Scotland. Fight it out amongst yourselves :slight_smile: )

When: 29th-31st August 2026

Location: Pembrokeshire coast

Campsite: Bosherston Campsite - £6pppn, no need to book, near Range East, near a pub

AOB:

  • Sea cliffs can be more serious in nature than other climbing venues so please make sure you are comfortable with the skills needed, if unsure please ask one of the other committee members
  • Climbing partners are self-organised between members, this is often arranged informally in advance/on the drive down/ at the campsite over breakfast
  • Reminder that those joining the meets are preferably members (for insurance purposes) but as a minimum need to have joined us at the wall for a belay check
  • Please make sure you are aware and comfortable with the BMC statement of participation, by signing up to the meet you accept this Meets — North London Mountaineering Club

we’ll be in Bosherston Thursday/Friday, possibly Saturday, prob stopping at the Trefalen farm campsite as its right by the beach, has basic showers and isn’t next to that pub :wink:

I’ll be booking the pub for Saturday night, let me know if you would like to join and I can add whatever number of people you’ll be with to the booking.
