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!
This system, similar to those on planes and trains, uses vacuum pressure to transport waste to above-ground tanks located in the carpark. It uses just ½ litre of water per flush, compared to 5-10 litres for regular toilets, and unlike portable toilets, avoids using chemicals.
We’ve also added new hand wash and washing-up pods, as well as a disabled toilet and shower.
NEW for 2025, we are introducing 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 😊
All these new facilities allow our visitors to enjoy our beautiful countryside with minimal environmental impact!
