If you have a power generator, make sure it is
adequately silenced and use it with consideration,
especially after dark.
Pets
Most site operators do not object to well behaved
pets but they should be kept well under control.
• No animal should be allowed to run loose on
the site.
• Leads must be no longer than 3m.
• Animals are not allowed in the shower or
toilet blocks.
• Dogs must not be allowed to foul sites, roads
or green areas.
• Carry a small spade and a supply of plastic
bags in your Motorhome in order to clean
up any mess made by your dog. It is then
possible to dispose of it in an appropriate
manner.
Fire Precautions
Read all fire precaution notices and make sure that
you and your family are familiar with the locations
of hoses, extinguishers and assembly points.
A fire blanket is a good idea for the kitchen.
Barbecues should not be used unless permission
has been given. If you are allowed to use a
barbecue, use it with care and consideration for
those around you.
Open fires are not allowed on campsites.
Tents And Awnings
It is polite to ask permission before erecting a tent
or awning. Permission will normally be granted if
the tent is of a recognised standard make and in
good condition.
If the stay is longer than a day or two the
groundsheet and/or side flaps of the
awning should be lifted to avoid unsightly
patches or damage to the grass.
Leaving The Site
Always tidy your pitch and make sure you do not
leave bags of rubbish lying about. Check out at
reception, pay your site fees and thank them for
an enjoyable stay.
Wild Camping
Camping on a non-licensed site without the
permission of the landowner is illegal in the UK.
If you do have permission to camp on an unlicensed
site, always follow the advice in the code.
Pay particular attention to the following points:
• Dispose of litter only in receptacles provided for
the purpose. If there are none, put litter in plastic
bags and take it away with you to dispose of in
an appropriate manner.
• Control the water waste from your Motorhome,
do not let it run onto the ground.
• Chemical toilets must only be emptied in an
appropriate waste point.
• Do not hang washing or similar items outside
your vehicle.
• Do not allow children to climb on fences or walls.
Damage to these may allow farm animals to stray
into the wrong field.
Parking
You should only park your vehicle in an approved
place and during the permitted times. Do not use
any of your facilities such as cooking or washing in
a way that may cause annoyance or inconvenience
to those around you.
User Manuals
Before using your Motorhome for the first time, and
at the beginning of each season, read and follow
the advice given by the manufacturer and appliance
manufacturers in their user handbooks.
Protecting The Environment
Always behave and, encourage children to behave,
in a manner that protects the environment and
other people's property.
Please read and follow the advice contained
in the country code and the coastal code.
After many years of use you may decide that your
vehicle has reached the end of its useful life and
should be disposed of.
Please ensure that you comply with the end of life
vehicle legislation and take it to an authorised
treatment facility who will deal with it properly
to minimise any environmental impact.
