Compton Bassett P&P: Anyone been?

As per the title, has anyone been to Compton Bassett near Calne? What's it like? My Fronty is a totally standed 2.0 Sport on AT tyres. I've done a bit of off roading in the past, RTV trials, etc, but don't want to fork out £25 and find i get stuck in the first five minutes. They're open this Sunday, I'm planning to give the owner a call tomorrow and see what he says.

I have been in a std 3.0ltr Trooper with BFG AT's. I got stuck going through the gate into the woods, thats about 5 feet, :oops: . After that I gave it a bit more beans and had a great day. The site is for all levels of driver and truck you will be fine and there is always someone on hand to help if you get stuck. Just dont try the mud runs :shock:

Spoke to the bloke who runs it. He says he reckons a standard fronty on ATs will be ok as the ground is frozen, but normally it would prob struggle. So I reckon I'll be heading over there if anyone wants to come along.
