F A Q' S

How do we get there?  The postcode for the lane the campsite is on is GL7 4NJ off of Whelford Road down a lane called Washpool lane. It will be sign posted to help you find us once you've followed the satnav to the postcode. If using the app 'what three words' , the three words to find our exact location are ' handbags.hovered.spark -  https://w3w.co/handbags.hovered.spark '
During the airshow Whelford Road operates a one way system. Based on previous years the one way system runs from the direction of Lechlade in the morning and switches direction in the afternoon. Check the official Air tattoo website for the best routes and info on the one way system. For ease, we recommend booking your pitch with us and setting up prior to the weekend however the site will still be accessible during the operation of the one way system, we just advise that you plan your route ahead of arrival.

​

Can I park next to my pitch? Yes! we've allowed for spaced for a car WITHIN each pitch.

How big is one pitch? Each pitch is roughly 50m2 (5x10m) With our smaller tent pitches being 5x8m

Is there drinking water available? Yes, although we don't have access to a running water point, we will have plenty of drinking water available on site.

What facilities do you provide?on site you will find toilets, showers, a bar providing an array of refreshments both alcoholic and soft, and andrew's butchers providing breakfast lunch and dinner options from the thursday through to sunday. you can pre-order breakfast and lunch when you book a pitch however these options will still be available on the day subject to availability. THIS YEAR WE WILL ALSO HAVE A SMALL POP-UP ON SITE FARM SHOP SELLING ESSENTIALS AND THINGS FOR YOUR BBQ'S.

We will also have waste disposal dotted around the site which we encourage our campers to use.

Can we bring gazebos? yes, a gazebo should be fine providing its not too big and keeps within your pitch.

Can we bring pets? Yes dogs are welcome, however we ask that they are kept on leads at all time

How far is the Air tattoo from the campsite? The base is literally a 5 minute walk from the site with the entrance to the air tattoo, we have a pedestrian route across the neighbouring field.

Can I get a refund if I cancel my pitch booking? There is a non-refundable 50% deposit taken on bookings, however, the remaining balance of the booking will be refundable providing the cancellation is made and in writing 55 days prior to your arrival date. cancellations made after the final balance has been taken are non-refundable. Bookings will not be refunded in the event of the airshow being cancelled or part cancelled as it is out of our hands.

​

Can I have a bbq? yes, providing the BBQ does not damage the grass and is disposed of and extinguished safely. BBQ's MUST be off the ground. Please bare in mind that if it is hot weather, the grass and surrounding shrubbery will be dry so fire safety is paramount.
