Electric Touring & Camping Pitches

• There are 2 types of pitches with electric hook-up on the Park, and dogs are allowed with all touring and camping bookings.
• The pitches are all on level ground, which can get wet and boggy in times of extreme rain.
• We do not allocate or book specific pitches, instead guests choose from available pitches on their arrival.
• If you need to be close to a facility block, it may be possible for us to reserve you a pitch nearby if you let us know in advance of your arrival, however this is not guaranteed and may depend on the time of year you visit and how busy we are.
• The gravel pitches are closest to the facility block and are around 100m away.
• The grass pitches are further away from the facility block and can be between 150m to 300m from the facilities.
• To minimise light pollution, there is limited lighting in this area of the Park and you may need a torch for outside at night.
• It is possible to park one car on the grass next to each pitch. Additional vehicles may be permitted but will not be able to be parked next to your pitch.
• On gravel pitches, awnings must be placed on the gravel area to allow adequate space between pitches for fire regulations.

Park Reception & Shop

• The Park Reception & Shop is located at the entrance of the Park, by the entry barrier.
• Should you need to park a car outside the Reception, this may be possible for short periods, however you must take care not to block either of the barriers as this may prevent vehicles from entering or leaving the Park.
• Access is via 4 steps, or a ramp, both with hand rail, and the entry door is wide enough for wheelchairs.
• Opening hours vary and will be displayed in a poster in the window, alongside a phone number to call if you need assistance.
• The shop stocks a small selection of essentials, including toiletries, camping essentials and basic cupboard foods.
• There is a fuel station in the village with a larger shop (1 mile away) and in Bridport, you’ll find supermarkets including Morrisons (3.2 miles), Waitrose (4.4 miles), Co-op (4.1 miles) and Lidl (4.2 miles). A range of supermarkets can deliver to the Park, and we ask that guests meet deliveries at the Park entrance wherever possible.

Roads & Paths

• There is an ANPR barrier at the entrance of the Park and another one to exit. All vehicles entering the Park will need to go through the barriers.
• There is a pedestrian path around the side of the barrier.
• There is a 10mph speed limit for safety and there are speed bumps at regular intervals, these are clearly marked and gentle.
• A one way system for vehicles and pedestrians operates in the central area of the Park.
• The park is mostly flat.
• The roads around the Park are mostly tarmac, however some in the touring & camping area and by the Glamping Pods are made of tightly packed gravel.
• The River Bride runs along one edge of the Park, please be aware there is no fence on the river bank.
• The footpaths around the Park, including the woodland walk and riverside path are flat but may be uneven in places.
• The Nature Trail is a 3.4 mile walk from the park that takes in the woodland copse & picnic area, a riverside walk into the village of Burton Bradstock and a nature walk at nearby Larkfield Holiday Park before looping back to the park. The section in the dog exercising area at Larkfield is hilly, but this is an isolated section so can be skipped.
• Burton Bradstock can be walked to via road or footpath and both take around 15 minutes.

Visual & Hearing Impairments

• Speed bumps in the roads are clearly marked with yellow paint.
• Important signage is high contrast (bold white text on dark blue background) and a clear sans-serif font.
• To save energy and prevent light pollution, outdoor lighting at night is kept to a minimum. Touring & camping guests may wish to bring torches to get to the facility blocks.
• The colour scheme inside buildings has been chosen to provide good contrast between walls, floors and doorways.
• There is adequate lighting in public spaces to allow for lip reading.
• Digital Park maps on our website and app and emailed to you can be scaled up and zoomed in. There is a large map on the side of the Facility Block.
• Our Park Map uses colours to differentiate between accommodation and pitch types. If you struggle to read the map, you can get in touch with our Bookings Team in advance of your arrival, or speak to a member of the Park Team when you arrive, and they will be happy to explain where you need to go.
