Sites with a pup tent?

Hi

You're welcome to put up a pup tent for the kids to sleep in on any of our club sites. Just make sure you book a standard pitch with awning. You don't need to have an awning but those pitches are bigger and will accommodate a tent.

Does it need to be on the designated pitch area or can it go on the surrounding grass?

A pup tent (for sleeping in) or any other equipment has to be kept within the confines of the pitch, the odd exception being for example there's a hedgerow behind the pitch then between the van and hedge is ok. The grass bits between pitches are part (not all) of the required fire separation gap so nothing fixed can be used there, ok for something moveable like a chair though.

Thanks JK. I guess the fire breaks determine but best thing is to check with staff. We did this and was asked to place tent behind van on grass for sleeping but remove it during the day. Easily done with a pop pup tent and made sense to me. If fire are maintained could same be done on a non awing pitch, if not why?

I guess it depends on the non awning pitch. It's pretty much site specific, some non awning pitches have the space to deploy a sun canopy for example so a pup tent would be ok on them. On all grass sites there's no pitch definition as such and could be easy to stray into that fire break but like you say it's always best practise to consult with the site staff.
