Bowlee Car Boot Sale and Collectors' Market

Get here early enough and it’s great but the whole experience would be better is they had someone controlling traffic in and out of the site, if you have to filter into the car park from the opposite side of the road you’ve got no chance ! My advice would be to ensure you arrive on the correct side of the road so you can just drive in without blocking traffic. Also only a couple of toilets onsite so make sure your prepared to wait or not need one.

It was a nice experience to shop here. Sale is organized in a spacious ground, very well managed and properly organised. No issue of parking at all. A big sale of preloved items. Almost ever category of things can be found here from clothes to household items, toys and decorations. Very very reasonable prices. Always enjoy shopping here also it cuts your budget into less.

Personally i would take your own food and drink ,as what gets served at those vans,is way overpriced and frankly,isn't that good. I've tried them all over about a 5 year peoriod and they weren't any better on my last visit.Oh,yes don't forget to take your own toilet roll and cleaning gear for the toilets as they are filfthy

I queued up for an hour to get in as a seller on Bank Holiday Monday, but it was well worth it! By far, my most successful car boot ever! Before I even got my key out of ignition, I was inundated with buyers asking to see stuff they spotted through the car windows! I probably sold 50 worth of goods within the first 10 min and before I even set up! There was a good flow of people throughout the day and I even sold a few items while packing up around midday. Beware of a lady with a fake 50 note trying to buy the cheapest item you have on sale so she can get the change in real money!
