Your pitch will be ready from 1pm. If you’re arriving during Sacrewell’s opening hours, please call in at reception and they will check you in. If you’re arriving after closing time, your paperwork will be located outside reception and please book in with reception the next morning.

Checking out

Please ensure you are off your pitch by midday of the final day of your stay, to allow our next happy campers to settle in without delays.

Barrier code

To access the campsite outside of opening hours you will need our security barrier code. Our night warden, David, lives in the caravan by the barrier and will be happy to help if you need any urgent assistance. The barrier code and Dave’s contact information will have been emailed to you in advance after booking.

Setting up

Electric hook-up pitches are clearly numbered – refer to your campsite map or ask a member of staff if you are unsure of where to pitch. If you are setting up a caravan or campervan, make sure your vehicle is set parallel (long ways) to the electric hook-up point (see diagram below) and you can see the pitch number in your left wing mirror.

Visitors without electric hook-up are welcome to choose where on the allocated field area they would like to pitch. Please allow a six metre gap between you and your neighbour. If you need any help, ask at reception or contact the night warden.

Car parking

You can park your car on your pitch (as shown in the diagram above) or in our car park / overflow park.

There is a petrol station on the A47, close to Sacrewell, which has a cash machine and sells a selection of newspapers.

Food and drink

Origin8 at Sacrewell use local meat, veg, fruit and more to create delicious hot and cold meals, sandwiches and snacks – think home-made soup, pasta bakes, baked potatoes, shepherd’s pie and salads. Our coffees are made with our own blend of beans and there are juices and ice creams from the Anglian counties for small people. Sit back on squishy sofas with a drink or bring the family for lunch or tea – the cakes are seriously yummy.

If you’re adventuring further, we also run a refreshment kiosk in the Play Barn at weekends and in school holidays, where you can relax with a drink and a slice of cake while your children let off steam in our indoor soft play.

For an evening meal, our staff highly recommend the Paper Mills pub and The Haycock Hotel in Wansford – both offer delicious, top of the range pub grub.

Thank you and enjoy your stay,

The Sacrewell Team
