Our Eco-Facilities and Showers!
After two years of planning, we installed our eco-friendly toilet & washing-up block in 2024, and our shower blocks in 2025!
Due to the campsite’s sensitive location by the River Wye, traditional toilets with septic tanks aren’t feasible, as all waste must be taken off-site and disposed of appropriately. As a result, in 2024 we upgraded our facilities to an eco-friendly vacuum toilet system!
In 2025 we introduced showers! Because of our proximity to the river, we need to collect, store and dispose of the grey water appropriately. These pay-showers limit the amount of water used to reduce water consumption and disposal costs 😊
The showers are token operated, cost £2.50/token, available from reception or the cafe.
All these new facilities allow our visitors to enjoy our beautiful countryside with minimal environmental impact!
Disabled Facilities
At Tresseck Campsite , we are committed to creating a welcoming, inclusive environment where all guests can enjoy the countryside comfortably and safely. We aim to make our campsite accessible to as many people as possible while recognising the unique characteristics of a rural outdoor setting.
Our campsite is located on predominantly flat ground, helping to improve access for wheelchair users, guests with limited mobility, families with pushchairs, and anyone who may benefit from easier movement around the site. Paths and surfaces are maintained regularly, although some areas may remain uneven or affected by weather conditions typical of rural locations.
We provide an accessible toilet and shower facility designed to support guests with additional mobility needs. This facility includes step-free access and space for manoeuvrability. We encourage guests to contact us before arrival if they would like more detailed information about the layout or available amenities so we can help plan the most comfortable stay possible.
We welcome guests of all backgrounds, identities, ages, faiths, and abilities, and we are committed to treating everyone with respect and consideration. Assistance dogs are welcome throughout the campsite.
As a small rural campsite, we continue to review and improve accessibility wherever practical. If you have specific requirements or suggestions that could help us improve inclusivity, we would be pleased to hear from you.
Our team is happy to assist wherever possible to help ensure all guests have an enjoyable and relaxing visit.
Funding Received
This project has been part-funded by the UK government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund*. The Rural Enterprise Fund is a capital grant scheme that has been funded by the UK Rural England Prosperity Fund (REPF). Their aim is to support new and existing businesses to develop new products and facilities that will be of wider benefit to the local economy. This includes farm businesses looking to diversify outside of agriculture.
Fridge Trailer
We are also grateful for the support of UK Rural England Prosperity Fund for a ‘Herefordshire Visitor Experience’ grant received in early 2024 to purchase a refrigerated trailer to help us keep our food and drink stock for the cafe cool. This fantastic asset has enabled us to reduce our energy usage and business carbon footprint by consolidating our numerous fridges into one large unit. It has also helped Martin & Tracey to keep smiling through another busy season! 🙂
* The UK Shared Prosperity Fund is a central pillar of the UK government’s Levelling Up agenda and provides £2.6 billion of funding for local investment by March 2025. The Fund aims to improve pride in place and increase life chances across the UK investing in communities and place, supporting local business, and people and skills.
