May day Weekend in the Malvern Hills

DSCF1234 Friday 2nd May we took the Motor Home to Malvern a nice quiet site behind the Duke of York Pub. We entered through the pub car park into the site and as we went onto the grass we just sunk into the soft ground how embarrassing. We had to get a Massey to tow us off and on to the side road where we spent the weekend.
