Great place, trip organised with Simon from 4X4 Solutions its 59 minutes south of Calais approximatly 50 miles,
The place is shown extensivley on youtube, the ground is mainly sand loose soil with pine trees to avoid theres also a nice bit of water to wade through! during the trip our guide Francous who could not speak a word of english drove through a patch of water which was deeper than he antisipated!!
And so we had to rescue the very embaarresed Frenchman oh how we laughed!!

Just saw this trip on the new 4x4 solutions website, looks great, hopefully not too much for a beginner?
Went to their old site twice so am keen to get down to the hop farm when time allows - especially now I have replaced tyres with general grabber AT's.

Hi Steve,
We met briefly last summer at Eastwell Manor with your GTR - what a machine.
I cant make this weekend as I am doing the rear brakes on the disco and the boss wont let me out to play as she has just had our first child a few weeks ago 
Will be down to the new site as soon as I can though and hope to see you there
Mike
