We also have been offered what might be a better venue, which is probably easier to access than Billing, and is cheaper too.

It should allow us to do more than we would be able to at Billing, as there's an awful lot more space:

LE17 6JJ is the place to be as seen here on google maps.

Essentially we have use of the area shown below:

I think it makes sense to use the airfield if its available to us. Billing is ok but we don't really use any of their facilities only a flat bit of grass. When you have to pay £10 IIRC to get in then they want another £100 for a pitch we may as well use somewhere else if its available to us.
