All campers receive a wristband at check-in and must wear it throughout their stay. Guests without a valid wristband may be asked to leave the site.

Day visitors are not permitted unless agreed in advance by management and must leave by the time advised.
Pitch Allocations
We do not allocate or reserve specific pitches. Pitches are chosen on arrival, subject to availability and any instructions from our team.
Pitch Spacing
Please maintain at least 6 metres between pitches (3 metres for approved group bookings), unless instructed otherwise by management.
Licensed Areas
You're welcome to enjoy your own food and drinks on your camping pitch.
In accordance with our premises licence, outside food and drink, including alcohol, must not be consumed within any licensed area. This includes the pub, parlour, skittle alley, barn, cocktail bus and licensed gardens.
Failure to comply may result in guests being asked to leave the licensed area or, in serious or repeated cases, the campsite without refund.
Smoking & Vaping
Smoking and vaping are prohibited inside all buildings, toilets and shower facilities.

Generators are not permitted during the summer season unless authorised by management.

Aggressive, abusive, threatening or disruptive behaviour, excessive noise, or failure to follow these Terms & Conditions or Site Rules may result in guests being required to leave the site without refund.
Illegal Substances
The use or supply of illegal substances is strictly prohibited. Anyone found using or supplying illegal drugs will be required to leave the site immediately without refund.
Pub, Café & Food Service
Our pub, café and food service opening hours vary depending on the day, season and events. Our café is not normally open during the week.
Please check our current opening hours and food service information before your stay. A campsite booking does not guarantee that the pub, café or food service will be available throughout your stay.
Entertainment & Events
Live Music
Live music takes place most weekends and generally finishes by approximately 11:00pm. Advertised acts may occasionally change or cancel at short notice. Changes or cancellations to entertainment do not entitle guests to a refund on their camping booking.
Tucker's Grave is a lively, social campsite, particularly at weekends and during events. If a very quiet campsite is important to you, please check our events calendar before booking.
Bike Night
Thursday evenings between May and September may experience increased visitor numbers, traffic and motorcycle activity due to Bike Night.
Security
Security staff may be present during busy events and live music evenings.
Facilities
Electric Hook-Ups
Electric hook-ups provide a 6-amp supply suitable for standard camping equipment. Guests are responsible for ensuring their equipment is safe, suitable and does not exceed the available supply.
Wi-Fi
Complimentary Wi-Fi is provided where available. As we're in a rural location, we cannot guarantee signal strength, speed or uninterrupted service.
Winter Works
Maintenance and improvement works may take place between November and March. We will always try to minimise disruption, but some areas or facilities may occasionally be temporarily unavailable.
Safety
Lighting
Parts of the campsite are unlit and there is a stream on site. Please take extra care after dark. We recommend carrying a torch and wearing suitable footwear.
BBQs & Fire Pits
BBQs and fire pits are used at guests' own risk. They must be raised off the ground, never left unattended and positioned well away from tents, vehicles, awnings, hedges and other combustible materials.
All BBQs and fire pits must be fully extinguished by midnight and before being left unattended or retiring for the night.
Management reserves the right to extinguish or prohibit any BBQ or fire pit considered unsafe or causing a nuisance.
Failure to comply may result in guests being asked to leave the site without refund.

If you have any accessibility requirements, please contact us before booking so we can advise you on the suitability of the site and available facilities.

Force Majeure
We are not liable where we are unable to fulfil a booking due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including severe weather, flooding, fire, government restrictions, utility failures or other unforeseen events.
Where reasonably necessary for safety or operational reasons, management may relocate pitches, restrict vehicle movements or temporarily close parts of the site.
