Terms and Conditions
Families, couples and individuals are welcome at all our campsites. Under 18 year olds must be accompanied by an adult.
The National Trust reserves the right to refuse admission.
For your safety
To reduce danger from fire and to avoid over crowding, you must leave a 6 metre gap (20 feet) between each tent, even if the tent next to you is yours! You can measure this by approximately 7 good strides. You will be asked to move your tent(s) if they are too close together. Please ask the Warden for approval before pitching gazebos or additional tentage.
Arrival Times
During high season and weekends, campers are advised to arrive late morning/early afternoon to secure a pitch. At other times campers are requested to arrive before 8pm to avoid disturbance to other campers.
Departure Times
We request that campers leave their pitch by 11am on their day of departure.
Parking
To protect and enhance the natural beauty of the site, campers are encouraged to park in the designated area away from tent pitches.
On Arrival
It is unlikely anyone will be around to meet you on your arrival. Unless directed otherwise, please find yourself a suitable pitch in the campsite following the instructions on the notice board. There are no fixed pitch sites.
A public footpath runs across the bottom of the campsite, between the Churchyard wall and a small line of young trees. Please do not obstruct this path when selecting your pitch.

Fires and Barbecues
Fires are not allowed on the campsite. Barbecues are allowed provided they are kept off the ground and closely supervised. Please ask the Warden for stones to raise disposable barbecues off the ground. No cooking or naked flames are allowed in the campsite buildings.
Dogs
Dogs are welcome on the campsite provided they are kept under control and do not cause a nuisance to other visitors. Please do not exercise dogs in the nearby farmer’s field and please always clean up after your dog.
Noise
A quiet site policy is in place to avoid excessive noise at all times and to be quiet between the hours of 11pm and 7am. (Those who do not comply may be asked to leave the site.)
We expect campers to respect the campsite and property of other campers.
