There is no charge for the day for BLS members although entry to the park will be at the very favourable rate of £3 per head for us. Bring your own picnic lunch or make use of the fine restaurant at the Park.

We do need to know numbers so please let me know if you plan to attend – my contact details are below.




The Llama Park is situated on the A22 – 3 miles south of Forest Row and 2.5 miles north of the village of Nutley, East Sussex and has the postcode RH18 5JN.

The Llama Park has a splendid website www.llamapark.co.uk where you can find lots more information about the park and even the menu for the restaurant!

I look forward to seeing you there.
