I'm doing some research into bunkhouses and other places for a Scottish Gathering on either of the first 2 weekends of July 2015.
Somewhere on the west coast and highlands
We're done this before at the Wigwams at Strathfillan,
Although it's fun having a big camp fire to gather around in the evenings, I'm looking at accommodation with lounge type areas in case the weather isn't on our side.

I need to know a rough idea of numbers likely to attend so I can get an appropriately sized accommodation.

If anybody would like to camp please say so in comments so I can look for places which will allow camping also.

I'd be up for it depending on shifts and thus amount of leave required.  Would opt for camping, because that works for me  :rolleyes

I was eaten alive by the little darlings at a campsite at the northern end of Loch Lomond. Not an experience I will forget in a hurry!

The ol Skin So Soft does seem to work for me, but they'll always get you somewhere.
