2. Cancellation by us

Woodfrys Farm Ltd reserves the right to cancel a camping holiday at short notice if we are unable to provide a safe camping environment, due to extreme weather conditions, ill health, fire, flooding or any other extenuating circumstances beyond our control. Under such circumstances, your full payment will be returned to you. Woodfrys Farm Ltd cannot accept liability or responsibility for any loss, including consequential loss, caused by cancellation. The Greener Camping Club membership fee is not refundable.

3. Arrival & Departure

​

The Withy Hut & Kingfisher Camp- You can arrive onsite between 2pm & 8pm. Departure by 11am, leaving the hut and field kitchen clean and tidy with all rubbish in appropriate recycling bins. Thank you.​

4. Children

There are many opportunities for play and adventure at Woodfrys Farm. As we are a working farm, and also have a lake and a chalk stream there are contingent risks to be aware of. The biggest risk for children is water, with the lake an unfenced pond, ditches and a chalk stream. Fishing is only permitted in designated swims and pole fishing is not allowed. We allow (in fact we encourage) campfires. We have pigs, chickens and cattle, and use a tractor and mower onsite. These risks are small and should be self-evident - but if you are not clear, please ask! Woodfrys Farm Ltd accepts no responsibility for injury incurred on site. Parents are responsible for the supervision of their children on site at all times. 

5. Lakes, pond and stream

Swimming is not permitted in the lake, but paddling and enjoying the stream is very much part of the fun here. Please do not remove any plant life from the stream, and sorry no dam building or going under the bridges. Adults must supervise children at all times. If you are fishing, please ensure you have a rod licence.

6. Cars & Campervans

The speed limit while on the farm is no more than 5 mph. If you are staying in the Water Meadow you may take your car down to the entrance of the meadow on arrival day to set up - and on departure day to pack up. For the rest of your stay, cars must be parked in the car park area. Campervans are only permitted on the Ridge and Watermeadow Campervan Pitch and may park in their pitch.  If we have had periods of prolonged rain and on arrival or departure days the ground is considered (by us) to be too soft to drive on, please use the wheelbarrows to transport your gear. Help will be provided by us if required.

7. Recycling & Rubbish

A condition of camping here that you recycle your rubbish. That means separating glass, cans, plastic, paper, cardboard and food waste and place them in the special bins provided.  What is left, ie. only items that are not recyclable, can be placed in the general waste bin. We're on a mission to recycle and reduce waste as much as possible!

8. Badgers, Foxes, Otters, Deer, Owls etc

Woodfrys is blessed with wildlife, it literally will be all around you. At night you'll hear the hoot of a Tawny Owl, or hear something scurrying around (and yes it could be an otter - or more likely Olaf the un-feral cat!) They may be on the hunt for an easy meal or curious to explore your camp, and could try to raid your food stocks and recycling. One or two simple precautions will help. Put your food in suitable, hard containers and your recycling in the bins provided. Don’t leave food scraps lying around and make sure your tent is zipped up at bedtime.

9. Campfires & Firewood

Please use the firepits and ensure they are not too close to tents or vehicles, taking into account the wind direction. Only firewood purchased from us can be used onsite. All our firewood is fully sustainable and harvested on the farm. Please burn only wood not tins or plastic as we recycle the ash to fertilise the fields and improve our soils. Please use the ash bins to dispose of ash when you need to.

 

In the event of difficult weather conditions, e.g. extreme heat or drought, we reserve the right to stop the use of fires and BBQ's to protect the site and it's users from high fire risk. In the unhappy event that this affects your stay, please be advised the standard cancellation terms above apply as the ability to have a fire or a BBQ are not guaranteed as part of your camping holiday. Fires are only permitted when possible and safe. Gas BBQ's or stoves are a recommended safer alternative when conditions are challenging.

10. Consideration for Others

This is a peaceful, quiet campsite for the enjoyment of nature, and we have neighbours nearby. We do not allow radios, stereos or other sound systems and only quiet talking is permitted after 10.00pm. Noisy visitors who disturb other guests will be asked politely to leave, without refund (this has never needed to happen). If you are out for the night and arrive back late, please be considerate to local residents and campers and make sure you have a torch as we are in a International Dark Sky Reserve and you'll need a torch to find your way to your tent or campervan. As a Greener Camping Club site, if the behaviour of a Member, or that of their children or dog(s), causes nuisance to other Members, or there is persistent violation of the these terms and conditions, the Site Owner is empowered to instruct the Member to cease the behaviour/violation, or leave the site immediately without refund.

​11. Dogs

We permit up to two well behaved dogs per pitch. Please pick up and bag up waste and dispose of it in the designated bin. Please keep your dogs under control at all times, using a lead. If you ahve rented the Kingfisher Camp or Withy Hut, whilst dogs are allowed inside, please do not allow them to get up on the beds.  No swimming in the lake, but splashing about in the stream is fine.

12. Property Loss

Woodfrys Farm Ltd cannot be held responsible for any lost or stolen property.
