It is important to pre-book your site in the Country Park through the Visitor Centre.
Please use the right-hand side of the park - beside the hedge that runs parallel with the road.
With effect from 26 March 2006 the main gate will open at 0700 hours and close at 2000 hours.
If you are outside the gate when it closes, there is no vehicular access until it opens again in the morning! Please do not knock at the adjoining houses - they can’t help.
The fee for camping is £3.50 per unit per night and must be pre-booked with the Rangers/Visitor Centre.
