Stead Hall Wood



Our site is situated between Otley and Ikley in village of Burley-In-Wharfedale. There is a train station roughly 1.5m walk from site so ideal for people who will be traveling on train as well. Just turn left out of station down Station Road, go under bridge and follow road round onto Moor Ln until you see Colston Dr on right with the Stead Hall Wood sign on left on path (Pictured below).

  • This is non-profit making, once the farmer gets paid any further funds are used to improve facilities or donated to a charity chosen by the group.
  • This venue is offered for family wild camping/bushcraft activities only, and is not in any way offered as a course, although impromptu or planned demo's may happen! The day or weekend is what you make it!

Fees

Price is £5 pppn to be paid on arrival. (Under 18's FREE)
Please remember to pay on arrival or once you have setup as it's a hassle having to go round reminding people.






Facilities

  • Communal Area: We now have a designated communal area at bottom of woods with a parachute canopy. You're welcome to sit and use this any time you wish.
  • Toilets: Currently no semi-perm/perm toilet but we will be putting one in soon so it's a case of finding secluded area and making a deposit ;)
  • Running water: Running water is available from a tap on site as well as a tap in next field and also a stream running through site for people who would like to use that for boiling/filtering. So no need to bring water unless you prefer to use own.
  • Shower Blocks: Yeah get real :p


Guidelines

These are just some basic guidelines which will be updated from time to time. We don't want to be all Nazi so just use common sense ;)

Parents/Guardians:
  • You need to be aware of where your children are at all times.
  • Please keep an eye on your children in the communal area and not let them run around as we don't want any unnecessary accidents.
  • We encourage the safe use of sharps, please make sure all carving and like is supervised.
  • Please ensure that your children are in bed or at your camping area from 10.00pm – 8.00am and are not running around during these times.

Noise:
  • Please keep noise to a minimum between 10.00pm – 08.00am. Enjoy yourself but please have consideration for others.
  • Please do any processing of firewood outside of these times. ie No loud axing of wood at 5am waking everybody up.

Fires:
  • Due to limited fuel, Personal fires must be kept small, dont waste what we have!
  • Please do not chop up the dead trees to use for logs, as these will be used for the communal fire only there is still plenty of smaller dead wood lying around.
  • Please leave fire scars to a minimum. Before leaving make sure your fire area is cleaned away, ie sweeping/washing away ash etc to leave no trace as much as possible.

Car Parking:
  • Vehicles are to be initially parked up the narrow grassed area to the left hand side of the static caravan.
  • Once this is full start filling car park from left to right.
    (will add pictures after next meet)

Rubbish:
  • There are no refuse facilities on site!
  • You bring it in, you take it away!!
  • There is never to be a communal rubbish bin!!!

Be careful near ADz when he's cooking :D

Gunna speak to SWMBO and see if I can work something out to tag along. I might have my hammock by then, so can harass you all to help me sort it out heh

Oh dumpling pie and fish tails!!! :aargh4:

I read the date in the PM, not the date on the title of the thread.... I thought it was this Friday (the 3rd)

I think I may have some explaining to do to my lad now... he's already packed his gear ready for Friday morning... he's a tad excited.

Me thinks I may be having a garden camp out this weekend... on the bright side, it has WiFi :lmao:

I said 3rd a while back in some PM's but also said I needed to check dates/anything clashing etc before I put thread up bud. :)

Tis my doing entirely... was so keen to sign up, didn't think to look at the title DOH!

Told my lad and the other kids overheard... all I have to do is workout how to get two hammocks and a two-man tent in the garden, spending our weekend out there together :)

Got visitors popping round in a minute, but I'll PM you in a bit... got some kit for the woods and a plan so cunning it could have got a first class honours degree at Cunning University during the non-cunning season!! :D
