6a010535952948970b017eeac46354970d-320wiYear by year,Top Barn Farm in Worcestershire justs gets more popular with UK Cavalier lovers, breeders and exhibitors, plus their dogs, who make it their annual camping holiday. It has become a pilgrimage in April and August for so many, for a couple of weeks'  fun, relaxation and meeting up with fellow Cavalierites. Top Barn Farm is an Activity Centre Set in beautiful Worcestershire countryside, adjacent to the River Severn and only 6 miles from the lovely city of Worcester with its renowned Cathedral, river walks and cruises and farmers' market.  It is ideal for caravan, motorhome, and tent enthusiasts with on site toilet and shower facilities, electric hook ups and a marquee for hire to cater for the programme of events put on by Camp Commandants, Pam Craig, Sandra and David Moger and anyone else who is prepared to lend a hand. 
The Cavalier revellers who make their way there, have a whale of a time,  despite what Mother Nature throws at them. This year many went straight after the Northern CKCS Club show on 4th August and set up camp. From there they were able to take in three shows, namley Paignton, Bournemouth and Welsh Kennel Club...all within the 2 weeks and all a reasonable driving distance of the camp. Apart from going off to the dog shows there is always something else to do...and if you choose you could join in the organised attractions....during the day, young and old played Boules, Kubb, tackled the Agility course, entered the Fun Match judged by Mia Kendall. Bingo, Beetle Drive, Mexican Train, Abba Sing-a-long, Movie night, Karaoke, were some of the laid on entertainment in the evening and the sharing of food and liquid refreshments were a common sight. Shopping, eating out and sightseeing were also popular as Worcestershire has so much to offer.   Some memories of a glorious fortnight.
