Manage episode 426983313 series 3584218
In this first episode, we learn how to "champ" (camp in a historic redundant church) like a pro while discovering an oasis of wildflowers and a nesting family of bats at this centuries-old church, where poet John Dryden was baptised.
Tune in for a one-of-a-kind sleepover adventure in Nights in the Nave: A Champing Podcast. If you would like to make some memories, why not give champing a try in the warmer months between March and October? For everything you need to know about Champing, visit: https://champing.co.uk/
