Tent pitches now available.

Lower Micklin Touring Park has now been open for over two weeks and lots of happy campers have enjoyed getting out into the countryside after their enforced stay at home. Everything has been working very smoothly; all our guests have observed the new conditions brilliantly and getting into the habits of the new normal. The responses we have received from guests regarding our procedures have all been very positive and encouraging.

A video showing how we have adapted to make our site Covid-19 secure along with what to expect when you stay at Lower Micklin can be seen here: https://youtu.be/XJjParb57Cs

We now feel in a position to open up some more of the pitches in the camping field for tents only. So if you have been disappointed when trying to book a pitch please try again by clicking 'Availability'
