Fire Safety

BBQ and Fire Pit Safety on the Campsite

Fire pits - Only our fire pits are to be used, and these must be put onto the slab provided to protect the grass.

Raised BBQs - Our insurance requires these must follow fire safety regs, be at least 50cm off the ground, and at least 5m away from any tents or structures.

Rules to follow:

  • Site the fire pit or BBQ outside and away from overhanging branches.

  • Clear a metre area around the fire pit or BBQ, removing anything that could catch fire.

  • Leave wood upwind and away from the fire pit or BBQ.

  • If using a match, throw it into the fire after lighting.

  • Never leave the fire pit or BBQ unattended; an adult must supervise the fire pit or BBQ at all times.

  • Be aware of the nearest sand buckets. There is one available by each fire extinguisher.

  • Never put anything but wood or charcoal into the fire.

What is NOT allowed:

  • Disposable BBQs anywhere on the campsite under any circumstances.

  • Open campfires anywhere on the campsite under any circumstances.

  • Fireworks. Not allowed to be set off at any time on any part of the site.

  • Fire pits or BBQs around the fishing lake at any time.

The rules must be adhered to.

It is your responsibility to make sure you understand and adhere to them.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation, and please ask if you have any questions.
