Location for boys weekend
Discussion
We're planning a bit of a reunion for some guys who haven't seen each other in 3 years. Wives/girlfriends are banned, so it will be a smallish group (around 10) of guys in their mid to late 20s.
Thought was to go somewhere quiet in the country to camp, take lots of beers, have a bonfire and BBQ, catch up on old times, etc.
My problem comes from finding the "campsite". We want somewhere that we can have a BBQ and bonfire at, and ideally just the place to ourselves. I would imagine most campsites will have curfews after certain times and wouldn't respond well to a bunch of guys up late having a laugh.
Any suggestions? Location wise, people are centered around London, so somewhere reasonably close to there would be ideal. (As in < 4 hours drive)

a little further than 4 hours away, but worth it ... a little town in france that is perfect for lads' weekends away ... lots of beer ... throw in some corvettes and astons ... a few scantily clad pit girls and wahey, robert is your mother's brother.
got to wait till june though - it's not the same the rest of the year.

looks good.
Although our lads weekends are generally a bit further away. (All the better to ensure you are "on tour")
