.
ACCOMODATION: If you are going to the Camp site first : M4 /A48/A40/A478/B4332/A487
to NEWPORT, once in Newport turn right 50metres after the ROYLE OAK
Pub (on your right) into the PARROG ROAD which you follow down to the
end - campsite on your left. Boats and trailers can be left overnight as indicated on the map.
If you are camping, mention that you are part of the rowing race so
that they can put you into the same field as the rest of the rowers,
If you are sleeping in a van you can park along side the tents, But if
you have a camper van or mobile home you must book now, as they are
very restricted on how many camper van/mobile homes they can have.
Hope this info helps.
