Access and Parking

There is good access to the camp from the main car park. Parking is available for 100 cars in total and we encourage groups to car pool whenever possible. Buses are able to turn in the car park area.

Security

To ensure your security and safety we have a duty manager on call 24 hours a day during your stay. We recommend that you leave valuables at home.

Safety

It is the responsibility of each group to ensure that campers understand and follow the campsite's general rules. Each group must have a competent leader in charge to liaise with campsite staff. The YMCA recommends a ratio of one leader to ten campers. Groups are responsible for their own first aid.
