How to book…
Booking Electric Hookup (EHU) Pitches:
At the top of the booking page, you’ll find a map for booking EHU pitches. This is only for those who need an electric hookup. If you don’t require EHU, you can choose your camping spot upon arrival and don’t need to book a pitch in advance.
EHU and People Tickets:
Remember, EHU pitches must be booked alongside your people tickets. You cannot book an EHU pitch on its own.
Zones for Large Vehicles:
We have a designated area, Zone G, specifically for large vehicles (such as long or live-in vehicles) for 2025. This zone includes both EHU and non-EHU options.
Tent-Only EHU Zone:
Zone M is exclusively for tents with EHU. No live-in vehicles are permitted in this area.

Testimonials
Hear from previous HEFF goers…
Come to HEFF! It has such a lovely vibe and is a fun week for all ages.
It’s a great place for your children to enjoy a wide range of activities, and so inclusive. It’s great to find a place where I feel that we fit in as a family.
As a family we have made friends from all over the country and these friendships are so special.
As the boys have got older it has been lovely to have people facilitate their interests and for them to be given the chance to grow in responsibility. My eldest son for example has hosted the talent show for some time now.
So I would wholeheartedly recommend HEFF for the whole family!
