paddock walk



You can exercise your dog in the paddock behind Highfield 2.There'a little mown path to follow round  - pop through the gate between pitches 2 and 3.

Tralee Beach is 400 metres from the main site gateIt's only about 400 metres down to Tralee Beach from the CL, so perfect for a short stroll, and you can walk down to the road through the gate via the woodland.

 

 

please note :
pets must never be left unattended at any time on the site

 

groundsheets and awnings

  • use of groundsheets -  strictly wide mesh breathable type only allowed

non breathable groundsheet has damaged the grassWe prefer if visitors do not cover grass with ground sheets; we don't mind a small open weave mat under your doorstep, or a cover over gravel on Highfield 1 Certificated Location if you wish.

This damage was caused in about a week by a ground sheet of the non-breathable type and took a couple of months to repair and regrow! 

We prefer if you site your awning over the gravel on Highfield 1 Certificated Location. Remember to bring steel rock pins if you want to use an awning on Highfield 2, there are hard packed pebbles under the grass!
