The camper’s laundry is a shared space for all campers, and guests staying in the Reedcutters’ Village, so please ensure everything is labelled with your group information!
Wood and campfires
It wouldn’t be camping unless you enjoy a good campfire! Groups can book campfire circles during their stay. Additionally, there are wood stores located around the site where we ask for a small charitable donation to use. Please use your fire bucket located in your dryshelter and return all matches and firelighters to the office if once you have finished.
Extras
There is a cleaning bucket, washing line and altar fires located at each dryshelter, as well as both rubbish and recycling points on both the Hautbois House and Limepits sites. Guests can hire phone charging blocks from the office during their stay, as well as fire lighters and matches.
