Gill Head is popular with families, walkers, school groups and Duke of Edinburgh students. We are surrounded by great walking country and there's an endless list of activities to do and places to visit in the local area.
camping bookings may be made online, for all other enquiries please contact the office. Booking is essential for Bank Holidays and a minimum 3-night booking is required.
WE DO NOT ACCEPT MUILTIPLE BOOKINGS MADE SEPERATELY WHERE GUESTS THEN INTEND TO STAY TOGETHER
We reserve the right to decline any bookings should they appear unsuitable .
For the purposes of this policy, a “group booking” includes multiple bookings made separately where guests are known to each other and intend to stay, travel, or holiday together.
This may include (but is not limited to) bookings made by friends or family, guests travelling together, or those attending the same event.
If separate bookings are made but are found to form a group, we reserve the right to refuse or cancel the bookings, or to ask guests to leave on arrival or during their stay without refund.
This policy is in place to maintain the quiet and relaxed atmosphere of the site for all guests staying at Gill Head
