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!

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 so its a case of going to a private area and burying what you made. We are working on adding a toilet cabin in new year.
- 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

Fires:
