The Back of Beyond Touring Park, which is a member of the Premier Parks group of the 100 best campsites in the UK, is creating around 70 additional hardstanding pitches, which has helped earn the park its new 5 Pennant Gold rating from the AA.

Over 20 of the new pitches will be fully serviced, meaning each will have a fresh water and electricity supply along with a grey water drain and a picnic table.

The new pitches will measure 23m x 12m on average, with some being over 25m long
