Not everybody got the weekend off

Thank you :)
Bobh, We stay in the caravans on Pennyseorach, Southend. We used to stay at Machribeg when we first started coming up in 2000, but then friends of ours bought Pennyseorach (so we can claim mates rates! :wink: )

Hi Chris,

i thought the pics were from around there. I know most of the views well. I used to know the family who owned Pennyseorach farm years ago. The Ronalds. I was in the farm house years ago with my twins who were 5 years old at the time (1995).

Last month my wife and i walked from Dunaverty along the beaches to Pennyseorach and came back the road way and into the village. It was a very hot day. Next time your at Machribeg say hello.

That`s a lovely site for caravans, I don`t suppose there are any pitches for tourers, are there?
