****EXCITING UPDATE***
2021 is on sale now! We recommend booking in advance if you need an Electric Hook Up Pitch or Bell Tent as both are popular and sell out early.
******
BYO Tent Tent pitches for those who are bringing their own tent. No limit on size or how many tents you bring.
Pre-Pitched Tents All of our pre-pitched tents come with inflatable mattresses (double or single) and we offer bedding packs (sleeping bag and pillow) for hire at an affordable price.
Our 2 Person Tents are great quality tents designed for 3, but we use to sleep 1 or 2 in comfort. These tents offer a spacious sleeping area and a large porch area. Ideal for couples or friends.
Our 4 Person Tents are a great family option, with a 2-by-2 sleeping configuration with zipped separation giving you two separate bedrooms. There's a large living area and integral canopy area to offer protection from the elements.
Electric & Non-Electric Meadow Pitches are available for caravans, campervans, motorhomes, or trailer tents as well as tent pitching with parking. Electrical Hook Up available for an additional £5 per night. All Meadow Pitches are 8m x 8m grass pitches, and you're welcome to bring what you need including awning and pup tents - as long as everything you bring fits within your 8x8 metre pitch.
Bell Tents Our Bell tents are a fresh alternative to camping for up to six people per tent. Including inflatable mattresses, linen (sheets, 13.5 tog duvets, pillows and blankets). Experience all of the joys of camping with real linen and none of the hassle! Fairy lighting and camping chairs also included.
