Any accommodation that requires a motor vehicle to bring on and off site
You cannot buy a caravan pitch and camp to camp in, we have to keep different types of accommodation separate for the safety of our customers. We understand that this is permitted on most permanent campsites, however this is not a permanent site.
No camping without a suitable vehicle is permitted, caravans that are deemed to be a health and safety risk could also be excluded.
If your portable accommodation is likely to exceed this area (including any towing vehicles) you will have to buy another campervan ticket.
It is not possible to ‘overhang’ your vehicles in any way as this creates a safety risk if a fire should break out.
Strictly one caravan or campervan can be parked in the allocated pitch.
One small tent is or awning allowed to be pitched behind or to the side of the vehicles but MUST NOT go outside the allocated pitch.
Only 1 gas bottle of the following sizes:
