The Owner Says

** Important the Bell Tent itself sleeps up to four people. Extra guests need to bring their own tents** Oyster Catcher is situated on the edge of Willow Camp site - a small rural campsite and our dragon fly maize maze, and enjoys the use of all of the campsite communal facilities. These include shower wet rooms, loos, games room with pool, table tennis and darts. There is also an outdoor communal dining area with pizza oven, electric kettle and toaster and a log cabin fishing lodge with microwave, fridge, freezer etc. In summer months boats and pedalos  can be hired on Home Water Lake.  On the Willow Camp field, there are two porta loos for night time convenience, two outdoor showers and a rustic outdoor washing up area. The price of the Bell Tent includes bedding for the double bed. A bedding pack including a fitted sheet, single duvet and duvet cover and pillow case and pillow can be ordered in the extras for additional children (max 2) sleeping in the Bell Tents. In addition to this the Bell Tent has enough space for up to two extra families to pitch their own tents alongside which need to be paid for in the extras section at the end of the booking. A communal gazebo is also permitted.
