May 14th - 18th for a fair few of us.

One of the best weekends for potential weather and also for the opening hours.

You'd be more than welcome to join us, we're quite a friendly bunch

Hoping to go there in mid august on the way back from a road trip to Monaco. Was going to go to the ring first but decided that it reduced out chances of getting to Monaco massivly
