You will need to bring the following:

Cooking
We provide you with a simple gas camping stove and pans free of charge. The only cost involved is additional gas supply which costs £2.00 per can and this lasts for about two hours of cooking. There are also barbeque and a fire circle close to the tipis that you can set up an open fire on. Firewood, charcoal and lighters are available on site at reasonable prices. Please bring your own cutlery, plates, cups etc.
Keeping Warm in the Tipis
The tipis will keep you sheltered from the elements, but in the early spring and autumn, the tipis can get a little cold a night. The tipis have an electric outlet in them, and electric heating is available on request.
