A hardcore passing place on a croft track looking across the sound.

The pitch sits on gravel and is slight sloping. Access is about 2.6m wide, and the lane in is narrow in places. You will need to reverse onto the pitch. Up to 1 vehicle at a time, and stays of up to 3 nights. This is a fictional demo listing used to show how Kipstop works.

Exactly as described. Easy to find, level enough, and the host texted us the gate code before we arrived.

Good pitch, though it slopes more than we expected. Bring levelling ramps.
