Our operating certificate is issued by the Caravan and Motorhome Club under Paragraph 5 of the First Schedule of The Caravan Sites and Control of Development Act, 1960.
Our CL operates by the following Caravan and Motorhome Club rules:
Only members of the Caravan and Motorhome Club on producing their membership cards may be accommodated on the CL, for the purposes of recreation.
Not more than 5 caravans, motor caravans or trailer tents may be stationed on the CL at any time.
No caravan or motor caravan shall be allowed to stay for more than 28 consecutive days.
No tent camping to be allowed on-site (only a small single-berth pup tent ancillary to the main outfit can be accepted).
You are required to give us your Caravan and Motorhome Club membership number when booking and we will check your current membership status with the Club before confirming your booking. If you cease to be a member of the Club, you will not be allowed to stay here
Refunds & Cancellations
If you need to cancel your booking please notify us as soon as possible so that we may re-offer the vacancy.
Arrival & Departure
Arrive after 1pm and vacate your pitch by 11am on your day of departure. This is so that we have no more than 5 vans on-site at any one time.

Guests accepting day-visitors
We are happy for you to have visitors to the site but please check with us first and please be respectful of our other guests.
Cars
CLs are intended for recreational purposes and our expectation is that guests bring one car as the towing vehicle. Large motorhomes occasionally bring a car as a ‘runaround’ vehicle. If you wish to bring more than one car, please let us know..
Electric Supply
We have 16A hookups and charge a flat-rate pitch fee inclusive of ‘reasonable use’ of electricity inside caravans or motorhomes. We do not permit charging of electric cars or using electricity to heat awnings or use equipment outside the caravan or motorhome as we believe this is not ‘reasonable use’. Likewise, we only permit one electrical connection per outfit and do not allow electrical ‘splitters’.
For economy and fire safety, switch heaters off unless you are on site.

We do not provide Wifi on Site but do have some mobile coverage.
