The building is booked with no camper nights, you must also book your number of camper nights along with the building if required. The area outside the building is exclusively for users of the building.
To have exclusive use of the site please select Entire Site, this will close the bookings to other groups and generate your bill accordingly.

*****When booking it will ask for a pitch – select any pitch available – 1 pitch allows 17 campers so if you have more coming book the relevant number of pitches in blocks up to 17 / pitch e.g. 36 people would need 3 pitches. If you cant book an item like the building it will already be booked for the dates you are trying. *****
