Arrival times

Your pitch will be ready from 12 noon & should be vacated by 12.00 noon on the day of leaving. (Earlier arrival or later departure may be permitted on request if the campsite is not busy) Please arrive early enough to pitch your tent before sunset. We do not allow any pitching of tents after dark as it causes nuisance to other campers and children who may be sleeping. If you have not notified us of a late arrival we may re-let your pitch after 5.00pm

Noise & Nuisance
Quiet Hours are between 11.00pm & 8.00am. Entrance gates will be closed between these hours and late arrivals are asked to park outside & walk to their pitch quietly to avoid disturbing other campers and sleeping children. Music is to be kept at a reasonable level, please respect your neighbouring campers and ensure you are not a nuisance to other campers on the site.  Please respect other camper’s tent space especially when playing ball games etc.
Generators are not permitted on the site at any time.

Group bookings
We do accept group bookings provided that all campers in the group respect other campers on the field with regards to noise & nuisance etc. Groups must have a nominated person responsible for their conduct. For groups a £10 deposit per tent will be due on arrival & refunded if no complaints received / damage is done.

Dogs
Please keep dogs on a short lead at all times on the site and they are not a nuisance to fellow campers. Ensure any mess is cleared up immediately and do not leave your dog unattended on the site at any time.

Barbecues & Camp Fires
No fires to be lit on the ground under any circumstances. Barbecues & camp fires are allowed in suitable containers only, set off the ground so that they do not damage or burn the grass. Please place disposable barbecues on blocks which may be found by the dustbins on site & return blocks after use.
No firewood is to be taken or cut from the farm or surrounding areas & lanes - please bring your own firewood. We also sell firewood at the farmhouse for use on the site.

Pitches

Please allow 6 metres between pitches for fire safety. Your pitch size will be reserved according to your booking, if your tent etc. is larger than the size of pitch booked we cannot guarantee the extra space and you will have to pay the difference.

Waste Disposal & Recycling
Rubbish disposal is for long term weekly campers only, if you are only staying for 1-2 days please take your rubbish back with you - all recyclables must be sorted into the correct bins.
Stubcroft Farm is run on sustainable, environmentally friendly grounds and we ask that all campers respect that ethos. Every hour in the UK we generate enough waste to fill the Albert Hall and most of that waste is buried in landfill sites in the countryside.  To preserve the countryside for future generations and ensure that you can enjoy this area for your future visits, we ask that campers try to minimize environmental damage and landfill by waste reduction & recycling.

Reduce
– your consumption and only buy what you need! Choose products that use the minimum packaging.
Recycle – separate and recycle tins, glass, recyclable plastic bottles, compostable waste, paper & cardboard.
Re-Use – choose reusable products instead of disposable products (ie barbecues, mugs, cups & cutlery etc)
Respect – the food you eat, it comes from farms like ours! Every week on the campsite hundreds of pounds worth of food is unused, wasted & thrown away. It has an environmental cost in production, transport & packaging!

Ecoloos
Everyday in the UK conventional toilets use 7 billion gallons of water which depletes rivers, streams and aquifers and generates 7 billion gallons of sewage, much of which is discharged into our rivers and coastal areas. In keeping with our sustainable ethos, we provide three flush toilets and seven waterless composting ecoloos for those who wish to be more environmentally friendly. We ask that wherever possible campers use the ecoloos and parents encourage children to use, and understand the reasons for using them. We want to keep our local blue flag beaches to a high standard for your enjoyment.

Health and Safety
We take the well being and safety of our guests very seriously and we ask that you comply with the following:
- The speed limit on the site is 5mph. PLEASE DRIVE SLOWLY
- All vehicles must confirm to the Road Traffic Act and have current tax, MOT and insurance
- Guests are not allowed to bring lorries or other commercial vehicles on to the site.
- No recreational vehicles can be used on the site. This includes motorised scooters, ATV’s etc.
- No businesses or any other work is to be undertaken on the site

Liability
Stubcroft Farm Campsite is used by all persons at their own risk - we are a working farm & parents should ensure children are under supervision at all times & not allowed to stray from the camping field or allowed near any farm machinery. Do not leave valuable items in your tent and check you do not leave rings or other valuables in shower rooms or washing sinks.

Deposits & Refunds
Please note that deposits are non-refundable in the event of cancellation by the customer. Likewise if you leave your pitch earlier than booked, no refunds can be given.
