Ask us about it when you enquire, and we will see what works.

Before you choose a spot

We will be honest if a space will not work. The main points are:

  • Facilities approval and any site rules
  • Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
  • Confirmation that open cooking is allowed

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and we’ll say what we think.
