The EMF2018 site is [[Location|Eastnor Castle Deer Park]], located just east of Ledbury, Herefordshire.

== Public transport ==

=== Train 🚂 ===
We are close to '''Ledbury''' station which is around [https://traintimes.org.uk/londonpaddington/ledbury/ three hours] direct from London Paddington (on [https://www.gwr.com/ GWR]) and [https://traintimes.org.uk/birminghamnewstreet/ledbury/ one hour] from Birmingham New Street (on [https://www.westmidlandsrailway.co.uk/ West Midlands Railway]).

As of June 18th, tickets from Paddington are currently as cheap as £12 return. If you buy a ticket on the day, the price will be £55-89 return depending on your time of travel.

Ledbury station to the EMF site is around 5km or 10 mins drive. We will be providing a complimentary shuttle bus service between Ledbury station and the EMF site, starting no later than 11am on Friday 31st and ending no earlier than 1pm on Monday 3rd. Please stay tuned for further details on timings.

=== Air ✈️ ===

The closest major airport is [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birmingham_Airport Birmingham ✈(BHX)], which is around [https://traintimes.org.uk/birminghaminternational/ledbury/ 1hr40] by train to Ledbury station; or an hour by road.

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristol_Airport Bristol ✈(BRS)] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiff_Airport Cardiff ✈(CWL)] are around 1hr40 by road, but poorly connected by public transport.

For those travelling long-haul, BHX is likely to be be most useful followed by LHR.

== Driving 🚗 ==

=== Getting here ===
If you plan to drive, you will need to buy a parking ticket (£15) or campervan ticket (£40).

The site is around 13 mins drive from the M50 Junction 2.

Plan your travel to the south gate (adjacent to A438) - postcode '''HR8 1RQ''' should get you there. The entrance to the site is '''52°01'56"N 2°23'01"W''' / '''OS Grid SO 738 372'''.

Once you leave the motorway, follow signs towards Eastnor Castle, ignoring your sat nav which may try to take you through the town.

Coming with an [[Power/Electric_Vehicles|⚡️ electric vehicle?]] Please add yourself to the [[Power/Electric_Vehicles| EV charging page.]]

Feel free to contact me, or chat with me at the camp :)

E-mail me at <emf [at] [my IRC handle].net>

If you can lend us a tent (for 2 people + luggage) or other sort of basic camping gear (sleeping bags/mats/blankets) we'll really appreciate it as it's not easy to bring them over from home.

== Boardgames Villages ==
There seem to be two villages that feature boardgames as a main theme. What's the difference? Or were they just started independently, in which case maybe merging them could benefit both...? [[User:AilaG|ailaG]] ([[User talk:AilaG|talk]]) 00:45, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

Hello, world. Galia here. Geek and maker from Tel Aviv, Israel.
I have been to EMF2014 and I will be visiting EMF2018 with my partner, another geek/maker.

Hope to see you there!

Feel free to contact me for camp suggestions, collaborations or anything else. I will be travelling around London and England before EMF and just might visit your hackspace :)
