Check in is at anytime after 3pm on the day of arrival and we ask that you vacate the tent by 11.00am on the day of departure.

We ask that you contact us at least a day prior to your stay with estimated arrival time. We do not live on site and need notice to be able to welcome you & show you around your tent & help with lighting the stove if required.

The site is situated in secluded fields along a farm track it is suitable for most cars and a hard standing carpark is on site. Saying that a daytime arrival would be easier to find the site & unpack. (wheatfields has no outside lighting so as to preserve the wonderful ‘dark sky’.

If one of your party is joining you later we offer a taxi service from Appledore station (5 mins drive away). Please contact Penny - 07831 328938 with a request.

A rushed last minute checkout can quickly undo a relaxing weekend Glamping. Our checkout time is at the later time of 11am just to give you that extra little bit of time to pack. Contact us if you would like the option of a later check out time we like to help if possible. 07831 328938.

We do ask however to return all furniture & fittings to their original positions & wash & tidy up & rubbish disposed of in the recycling bins provided by the carpark.

Any extra wood bought needs to be paid before leaving, please pay by cash and leave in the honesty box in the farm office in the yard.

Breakage/Damage

Please leave the accommodation tidy and let us know if anything gets broken, so we can replace it for our next guest. We will only charge for replacement in exceptional circumstances, as we expect a degree of wear and tear. If the damage is directly attributable to the guest, then we reserve the right to request payment up to £100 from the guest or to keep the security deposit paid on booking.

Wheatfields is a remote site and as such security is unlikely to be an issue. To be on the safe side please leave any valuables locked away in your car.

Noise

Wheatfields is in a remote setting but sound travels and we ask you for the sake of our neighbors, other guests & the wildlife to keep the sound down after 10am.

Please be aware that Wheatfields is on a working farm and there will be noise from farm machinery working in fields around the site and using the farm track.
