If you are towing a trailer of any type, that is an additional charge of $20 per night, please see our Extras section when making your booking to add this on. Each vehicle must have its own site booking and each site is for up to 5 people. eg: if you are planning to come with 7 people in one vehicle, you will need to book 2 sites, even if you only have one vehicle.

In the interests of all guests' enjoyment, chainsaws, generators and music may not be used/played in or near the camping ground. Quiet talking after 10pm only to avoid disturbing other guests.

Unfortunately, we do not have facilities for this and you must take your refuse with you. Pets must be kept under control and on a leash or tied up in the campground. If your pet tends to bite or be unfriendly, to either humans or other animals, you must keep a muzzle on it as there are young children and other pets at Turon Gates who may approach your pet when you are not looking.

Should the number of people, pets, cars or trailers coming in your group change, you must contact us to amend your booking prior to your arrival.
