Hey, am new to the camping world and wondered if anyone can recommend a site that allows large tenst, have beeen lead to believe some have restrictions? Is this true? Have recently purchased a 9 berth Lichfield tent for whole family to use and worried now that will struggle to find site to pitch it. Can anyone help or re-assure me that it won't be a problem. It is 22 square meter floor space.......:(

We have a Hartford XXL which is an enormous tent, we have never had any problems finding a site to accomodate us.  You just need to be honest and tell them the size of your tent when you book and they will confirm whether they have pitches big enough.

 

 Alot of sites now do appreciate that some tents are huge and offer pitches of various sizes, it's just a case of finding them.  Rose Cottage in Norfolk , Cotswold View and Wolds way have never had a problem offering pitches to us.

When booking, it's best to tell the campsite the exact measurements of your unit just to be on the safe side. It helps them to allocate you a pitch that will be suitable and guarantees no surprises on arrival!
Welcome to the UKCS forum btw. Wishing you lots of happy camping in the future. I'm sure you'll love it and be bitten by the bug in no time
