Willowbrook Ecology Policy

Ecology Group

Willowbrook Farm Campsite was established to provide ecologically managed camping facilities and raise environmental awareness amongst our members and visitors.

When camping you must abide by the following rules at all times.

• Children must be supervised and made aware of environmental dangers, fire safety and farm animals.
• Utmost care must be taken not to damage the site or the surrounding environment and locality
• Wood for fires is not to be taken from the farmland, hedgerow or woodland.
  • We carefully and sustainably manage our farmland, hedgerow & woodland. If the environment is damaged or wood removed, this will destroy wildlife habitats and delicate ecosystems.
  • We can provide wood for campfires in our farm shop, or you are welcome to bring your own.
• Open fires must be placed in designated fire pits provided.
• Cleaning products must be ecologically approved (e.g Ecover/Method).
• Waste must either be taken home or disposed of by staff on site in accordance with on-site arrangements.
• We hope that your stay will inspire you to continue thinking and acting along with these beliefs and ideals. We encourage you to try and make small changes in your life where possible and reach these simple goals.
• Ride, walk or use public transport in place of a car when you can.
• Recycle or re-use any materials you can, and compost food waste.
• Buy produce locally and/or ethically.
• Reduce wasteful energy, water and heating use.
• To sign up to the Willowbrook Ecology Group simply book your camping visit and pay a one off fee of £1 upon arrival for one years membership.
