WE were a little worried about the weather but travelled via Newark and Horncastle, the roads were clear and arrived at 6.30 it was very cold outside but the apartments were very warm. after a good meal (we booked the Full board package eating in the coat resurant) we went to the Centre stage concert (capacity 2500 a 3000 I think)
Gary Fletcher was OK, stand in band Pie were not to my taste so went to see the Strawbs in the second venue reds which is also very large. I really enjoyed them before returning to the Centre Stage to see the Oyster band perform a blinding set and back to the cozy apartments to bed.

Saturday started with a full breakfast (worth the price of the meal ticket alone)
The afternoon concert was all very good with Ey Duncan, Phil Cool and Richard Digence. The evening we opted for Reds and and enjoyed The Gathering, Sandy Thom very much but soon tired of Jiggerypipery and retired to bed.

Sunday afternoon opened with the Gordan Giltrap who was outstanding followed by Shindig a ceilidh band in a concert? final act in the afternoon was the new to me Nine below zero they were very good.

Before leaving to be home for work Monday we saw Kate Rusbys first set

There are some things that could be improved but overall a great good value weekend. For our party of 6 we paid £123 each including silver a accommodation and meals in the coast restaurant.

I would like to see a few more younger acts, a ceilidh or two and more open mics and will be booking for next year.
