We ask any and all campers to please follow the following rules:
- "leave no trace" anything you bring in you must bring out. This includes all rubbish, which must be taken home or to a public bin, but NEVER placed in any of the bins along our road
- please drive slow on the road in and out of the property, taking extra care around horses and any pedestrians or cyclists during the day, and of course wildlife at night
- please treat the toilets/showers with care and respect. If you make a mess clean it up, and leave the space ready for the next person to relax and take care of business :)
- All dogs must be friendly (to people/strangers, children and other dogs). Dogs must remain in owners eye-sight and under their control at all times. All poos in open grassy areas must be picked up. Please ensure dogs are treated for ticks, as these are around and can be lethal for our beloved canines.
