Things you might want to bring
Cool box for your drinks & food
Knife, fork, spoon, plate & cup
Camp chair (for comfort, but not essential as we do have stray bales around the camp fire and some picnic tables with benches)
Closed toe shoes (there are nettles, brambles etc.)
Something warm to wear in case the temperatures drop or the wind picks up
OUR DOGS
We have three loutish lurchers who are awesome with people but can be tricky with other dogs.
They have zero road sense and it is critical that they are not allowed out on the road.
Please make sure the gate is closed at all times.
SAFETY
Risks
There may be fires and highly combustible fuels (petrol, gas etc.)
Uneven ground
No lighting after dark fall…
Brambles, stinging nettles
Low hanging branches – watch your head
Biting insects
...and all the usual hazards you might encounter when camping.
We also have some derelict outbuildings (and a well), which we definitely do NOT recommend allowing children play around.
For your protection
A bucket of water will be located near the fire
We have a basic first aid and ‘cuts’ kit (plasters)
Lastly – we ask that everyone takes responsibility for themselves and their kids – goes without saying really.
You agree that you enjoy the day at your own risk.
INFORMATION FOR CAMPERS
Camp Site
Facilities
Camp Kitchen
We have a ‘kitchen’ area under a shelter with space for an open fire. We also have a large double burner gas stove for heating up food or boiling water for drinks.
There will be fresh water, a kettle so you can make yourself tea and there are facilities so you can wash your hands.
We would appreciate your support in collecting firewood and topping up fresh water containers.
Toilets & Shower
In the house, off the utility room.
Alternatively, feel free to ‘nitrogenate’ the trees and bushes… they will be very grateful for the “rainfall” in this heat..
Useful Kit
Towel – if you fancy a morning shower
Head torch – for nocturnal trips to the loo
Wellies – even if it does not rain, the grass will get dewy in the morning and evenings
Warm clothes and hat – for sitting around the fire in the evening
Hoodies – great for sleeping in instead of pyjamas
Insect repellent – we do have the odd flying critter
Blankets for sitting around fire etc.
Ear plugs – for snoring neighbours
Anything else you fancy to make your stay more cosy
Spare Gear
We have some spare camping kit; if you forget something, just ask.
