Caravans and Motorhomes Policy 

 Registration and Permits: 

All caravans, motor homes and camper vans must be pre-registered via the Booking System, prior to arrival, to be able to attend the Event. We may need to restrict the number of caravans, motor homes and camper vans due to available space. Bookings will be allocated on a first come, first served basis.

Designated Areas and Pitches

Caravans, motor homes and camper vans are only permitted in areas designated by the Organisers. These areas will be located to ensure minimal disruption to the main staff subcamp and activity areas. Caravans, motor homes and camper vans are not allowed on participant camping areas.

It must be noted that it may not be possible for caravans, motor homes or camper vans to be sited next to friends camping in tents. Caravans, motor homes and camper vans will be assigned a pitch at random, and this must be adhered to. It is required that caravans, motor homes and camper vans park within their defined pitch.

Safety Regulations

All caravans, motor homes and camper vans must comply with UK safety regulations, including fire safety standards. Each vehicle must be equipped with a fire extinguisher and a smoke detector.

Caravans, motor homes and camper vans must be secured to prevent movement once on the designated pitch through a combination of using chocks, leaving the vehicle in gear and with the handbrake on.
