Windlesham in December: what to know
Windlesham is about 4 miles north-east of Camberley, in Surrey. For Christmas parties in Windlesham, the van can park on drives, in car parks and yards, and on firm lawns and fields in and around Windlesham. Windlesham is one of 395 places in Surrey where we bring the van. We serve events right across the region, from Windlesham to Guildford (about 9 miles away).
For anyone getting the train home after the party, Bagshot station is about 1.4 miles away. Carol services and Christmas fairs at churches such as Church of St John the Baptist draw people who are glad of hot food afterwards.
We take the van to Christmas parties all over the GU20 postcode area. That could mean a Christmas party at a home on Church Road, Finney Drive and Cooper Road or the roads around them, as long as there’s somewhere for the van. Neighbouring places where we serve Christmas parties include Brick Hill (1 mile east), Lightwater (1 mile south-west), Bagshot (2 miles west), Donkey Town (2 miles south) and Broomhall (2 miles north-east). Within a short drive, we also cover Guildford (9 miles south-east), Woking (5 miles south-east), Camberley (4 miles south-west), Farnham (12 miles south-west), Egham (6 miles north-east) and Walton-on-Thames (11 miles east).

Should I sort the food myself?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
