We offer a space for fully self contained campers to camp on our relaxed farm grounds. There is two camping options, the front paddock has 2 sites which are suitable for caravans and bigger setups and the stables camp has only one site which is great for campers. You must be fully self contained as we don’t offer any bathroom or laundry facilities. Please note the Farm is an adgistment property. Your campsite will be private from public however there will be people around the farm tending to their horses both morning and afternoon. We are dog friendly and so are our dogs but we ask that your dogs remain on lead and at your camp at all times for the safety of our horses and your dogs. Our dogs are very friendly and will visit you from time to time so if this won't suit your dog then camp may not be suitable. If your dog is new to horses or reactive please stay elsewhere! Current fire ban in place.
