Nice to know that there is an appreciative audience out there for genuinely pleasant airfields rather than somewhere just to land, get fuel, food, stretch the old legs and have a 'refreshment break'.
My gaffer has been all over the country with various other pilots to many airfields, and had a number of unpleasant experiences (wouldn't want to embarass any airfields in North Wales or the Western Isles by naming names) and many other so-so experiences, so it was quite interesting to hear him raving about the place too.

We were in between 1430 and 1530L in our glamorous 150 Aerobat. If you were one of the FI's talking about photos on CV's, then you probably noticed the big, ugly guy smirking away behind you.

Old Sarum just a little out of our way, as we needed fuel pretty quickly and had to head back over to Street for our next job before heading North again, but I'm sure we'll get a chance to check it out sometime soon.
Oh, and if you want REALLY good walking, you can't beat the north Pennines - wilderness heaven!
