beleive it or not, it never occurred to me that it would be police/ambulance. Genius.

It’s parked, as you say, in a field, outside a small hangar/shed. Doesn’t look all that official.

Nose was covered when we drove past, and it was a good way from the road, but i assumed it was a Gazelle..

Presumably, it was actually the other one with that type of tail rotor, Eurocopter something or other.. EC-135 maybe?

it is not the air ambulance……………….police chopper based at sulby, very close to HB

If i remember correctly its just the other side of the road and across a field or two from HB.

my mistake :confused:

….For info, we found a lovely place called Brook Meadow, outside the village of Sibbertoft, just a few miles away….
….. and someone nearby has a helicopter, which for some reason was up twice during the night, so it’s entertaining sitting outside the tent on an evening…

suspected so, but just checked on a map first. Sibertoft is quite close to Husbands Bosworth which, as well as being the home of the Coventry Gliding Club, is the base for an Air Ambulance – that’s likely to have been the helicopter you saw.

Cheers for the ideas, people..

For info, we found a lovely place called Brook Meadow, outside the village of Sibbertoft, just a few miles away.

Big carp lake around which to camp (and day permits for fishing at £6), and nice shower, cooking, and laundry facilities in a log cabin nearby.

better yet, only £10 a night.

Recommend it to anyone wanting to camp somewhere close to brunty.

In addition, it’s on the approach to the airport, so plane after plane going over with landing lights on, and someone nearby has a helicopter, which for some reason was up twice during the night, so it’s entertaining sitting outside the tent on an evening. Also saw a UFO, well, i reckon it was one of these chinese lantern things, or a balloon of some sort, but very interesting anyway, and you can see why people jump to conclusions..

No alien photos, but a couple of the campsite..

There is a Caravan and camping site just on the outskirts of Wolvey village .
along the B4065. seem to be tents and vans on there most of the year . unsure if you have to be in the caravan and camping club thou.?

Link here for the site.
