we are at Tredegar house this week , and like everyone had a lot of wind and rain ,
site has held out brilliantly , no problem at all with the rain , the Tredegar country house grounds though have suffered flooding in some areas , is anyone touring who has been caught out with this awful weather and have gone home early ?

Posted on 18/02/2020 13:46 by TakethedogalongWill do WN. It’s showing all clear now, the water has moved down into Ouse, but there were issues at the weekend. The Wharfe runs alongside the main road around Otley, Ilkley, so does flood. This is website I use, updated regularly. Hope you have a nice time😁

Cheers.
Taking MiL so I'll be going for lots of walks whilst MiL and Mrs WN do lots of shopping and drinking tea in places like Betty's.
Will let you know what cottage is like as I know you need more or less the same sort of outlay for a cottage as we do.

Oh yes! Sounds good. OH is taking his bike, while I do the dog chariot duties and little Sis does the Mum care bit! We take two cars with us, as it’s not far from home, and then if we want to we can go in different directions. Luckily one is our big Jeep, so we shall be ok in all but the deepest of snow. We are going to Seat House Farm, a lovely Farm CL that also has a very nice cottage. Just outside Skipton in scenic countryside. Watching the weather though!😁

Posted on 18/02/2020 12:58 by TakethedogalongThat’s some picture DK. We walked in the park every day when we were there early January. You had to stay on the hard paths then because there were flood pools on the grass and it was extremely boggy. I wonder how the new hotel is faring. They were just finishing off the landscaping during our visit☹️
I am wondering if Tewkesbury site is flooded. I can’t recall if it opens all year, so that might be why there’s no warning on the webpage at the moment. Flood report for area indicates Gander Lane is flooded, so who knows🤷♂️

We've now been away for a month and have been fortunate being in areas where the storms haven't really affected us, although we did stay an extra night at Kings Lynn so as we weren't towing in the very high winds on the Sunday of Storm Ciara.
Hope that you are able to get to your cottage on Saturday, WM

Found this aerial shot of Tewkesbury, taken a day ago. The caravan site is in the top right hand corner. You can clearly see the toilet block and the service pitches surrounding it. At least those that are not underwater, a fair section of the site is submerged.
