Camping


Recommended Posts

We have found a lovely little spot in the woods near a quiet beach which we would like to camp on for 1 night. There are no houses around and there are no signs to say its not allowed but if we were spotted what would happen? Would we just be moved on or would there be a fine?

Cheers

There aren’t any no camping signs. Working on that premise you could camp in any farmers field you pass.

Personally I would either find out who owns the land and ask permission or find a local commune camp site (they are all well kept and good value). Nearly all communes have one so there will be one not too far from your idyllic bay.

If you want to potentially meet a miffed drunken farmer with a grudge against the English, a big dog and a shot gun at two o’clock in the morning go ahead.
