Just a warning,make sure you book ahead if that is what you have to do......here is why.......we did not, after ringing the shire and advised to just ring when we get there.....they know there is no cell phone coverage in the
camp areas,but we stayed anyway to be woken up at 6.30am with a
ranger writing out a fine,he was very understanding and said,you can get coverage up the road away !!!!! It seems there is one individual in the booking system who wants all the camping areas closed down.We went and saw him and got no where talking to him directly,we were not the only ones caught like this,there was around 4 groups caught in the rangers blitz.So be warned,do as the signs say ,if you are not booked in dont stay.The individuals comment to us is basically we were a lot of freeloaders and should pay for a
camp like everyone else.It left a very bad taste in our mouths and spoilt our stay in this area.We did get off the fine in the end when we said we would take it to court,good luck.
