The School Easter holidays are upon us and it's very busy at the camp. I have taken quite a few enquiries this week from guests asking about bringing their dog. We are unable to accept dogs for quite a few reasons and we hope that our guests fully understand. Firstly we have livestock in fields that surround the camp and if a pet is not used to rural life, then the potential to worry the stock is massive. There are also no facilities for a pet dog to sleep in a yurt. With a wood burning stove, the potential for injury is massive particularly if a dog is not used to a stove. I am a dog lover myself and we own a lovely dog too, so we are very conscious of the needs that dogs can make on their owners. Just this week at a caravan site in Cornwall a young boy has been killed by a pet dog in a caravan - such a sad tale and reaffirms just one of the many reasons why I don't allow pets on our site. I am so sorry to those people that wont come and stay with us because of this, however its one of those things that we are certain about. So please understand the reasons why pets are not allowed to stay at our camp and enjoy your holiday.
