Booking

To book, please email or telephone us: newbournecampsite@icloud.com or 01473 736201

We do not use an online availability and booking system.

Camping bookings are normally taken for one night or more, and no less than three nights on bank holiday weekends. For our Glamping cabins the minimum booking is two nights, and three nights on bank holiday weekends.

To make your booking we will need your preferred dates and the name of each camper staying on site, as well as the address, telephone number and email address of the person making the booking. You must also mention if you would like to bring a dog – please read the relevant paragraph on the FAQ page before you decide whether you wish to bring your dog with you.

We do not normally request a deposit, but we do ask that you inform us as soon as possible if your plans change and you will not be arriving as confirmed. Please see our Cancellation Policy below.

We do not take bookings for groups of more than four people. We also adhere strictly to our ‘quiet time after 10pm rule’ and we have found from experience that this works best with smaller groups. We apologise if this spoils your plans for a larger gathering but hope you will understand our reasons; we want to be sure that we can offer a peaceful and tranquil stay to all our visitors. Please contact us if you would like to talk about this.

2022 Season Dates

The campsite opens on Friday 15th April 2022 and closes on Sunday October 2nd 2022. The three cabins are available until the end of October – please email or call us for enquiries

Tariff

Rates for 2022 are £28 per night per tent, except for cyclists with tiny lightweight one-man backpacker’s tents which are £22 per night. No more than three people per tent. We have reluctantly raised our prices this year largely due to a huge hike in our electricity bills.

Cherry Tree Cabin is £70 per night, Kingfisher Cabin is £85 per night and Hawthorn Cabin is £80 per night. Please see our Glamping pages for further details of the cabins.

Our charges are inclusive. The only extras you pay for are logs and charcoal, both of which are available at reasonable prices. Fire pits and barbecues are available for free loan, subject to availability.

There are no extra charges for visitors, and there are no extra charges for quiet well-behaved dogs. If you would like to bring your dog you must request it when you book your pitch, as we do have a maximum number on site at any one time. We never allow more than two dogs per pitch.

Cancellation Policy

Cancellation within seven days of arrival, or non-arrival without notification, will incur full payment of the pitch or cabin fees.

Please contact Jen as soon as possible if you need to cancel; we would much prefer not to charge you for a holiday you haven’t taken!

“Our four marble elephants come from Burma. We bought them in 2011 when we came across the marble carving street in Mandalay, intending to keep one and sell three. However once they arrived with us we couldn’t bear to part with them and gave them a home in the woods instead!
