1. Entering/Leaving the fields
Please do not arrive early for your booking. We have allowed 10 minutes between bookings to allow for site inspections, free flow of traffic in and out of the fields and to avoid congestion on the access road.
On arrival, stop on the tarmac, walk to the gate and check that the field is empty.
If it is not empty, DO NOT ENTER: call us and we will deal with any issue in the field.
Unlock the gate with your code, which you will have received on the day of your booking, taking great care with the locks.
Drive onto the car park: you are not permitted to drive on the grass. Please lock the gate behind you before getting your dog out of the car and keep the gate locked at all times whilst you are in the field.
Your booking is 50 minutes long, do not stay beyond this and please lock the gate when you leave. If you arrive late for your booking, you cannot extend your allotted time, you must still leave on time ie 10 to the hour in Wenlock and Fae and 5 past the hour in Linley and Trll.

ALL users must remove dog poop after their dogs have pooped. We provide four dog poop bins per field and free poop bags. Place all dog poop in the GREEN bins provided, normal litter in the BLACK bins on the car park.
There are zero excuses for leaving the field dirty and users can be banned for neglecting this rule.
Please do not allow children or dogs to climb the fences. Our fences are checked at least twice a day to ensure safety and security of the fields, which is of prime importance to the us and our users.
We provide a field shelter for inclement weather, please ensure you do not damage the shelter or its contents.

3. Inside the Woods
These are a work in progress, having been neglected for the last 20-30 years, and as such, while we have made every effort to remove the accumulated litter, you may come across some, which may include broken glass and barbed wire. We have tested extensively with our own dogs
We recognise that you will not be able to collect every single poop, however we do expect every user to do their best to collect their dogs poop and place it in the bins provided.
We have installed deer proof / stock proof fencing on the boundary of each space in the woods: we are not installing any additional screening or chicken wire, so if your dog(s) are overly reactive or can get through a gap that is 150mm x 150mm, please do not book , or if you do, accept that your dog will need to be kept on a lead.
Please do not allow children to climb the trees, we accept no liability for injury.
Fallen wood is not to be collected or removed – we have a use for every twig and branch to maintain the bio-diversity and eco-system for the foxes, bats, toads, squirrels and insects that are resident in the woods.
