and how many.

No card details at enquiry. We confirm availability, send a kit list, and request a 30 percent deposit to hold the dates. Booking is by enquiry rather than instant booking on purpose: it lets us keep the camp under a soft cap, and it means every guest gets the right tent for their party.
