Facilities
The site has a superb modern facilities building (built with the aid of an ETB grant) which comprises:
eight toilets
eight hot and cold water wash basins
four coin-operated showers (£1.00)
two coin-operated hair-dryers
baby-changing facilities
two external sinks for washing-up.
There is also a separate laundry, with two industrial strength washing machines, a tumble dryer, a spin-dryer, two sinks for hand-washing and an iron/ironing board. The washing machines and the tumble dryer use tokens which are available from Ben and Caroline. The spin-dryer is coin-operated (50p) as is the iron (20p).
Water
All our water is sourced from our own bore-hole, so it is clear, cold and chemical free. It is filtered and passed through a ultra violet light, and is regularly checked by the local authority to ensure it meets the required standards. There are 2 stand-pipes on the campsite which provide drinking water. As water is a very precious resource on the Island, we do ask that you use it sensibly.
WiFi
St Martin's has superfast broadband and we provide free internet access on the campsite.
The Honesty Barn
Eggs, milk (UHT), BBQs, Campsite honey, Campsite marmalade, and seasonal vegetables are all available.
Charging
We do encourage campers to bring solar panel chargers for mobile 'phones, cameras, torches etc, though these can be charged up in the barn: this facility is provided at your own risk and is free of charge, though we would greatly appreciate your donation to either the FireFighters Charity or the RNLI using the collection boxes provided.
We also have a limited number of charging lockers which will accommodate anything up to the size of a small lap top. Available for £2.00 per day.
Freezer Packs
There are 3 freezers for campers' ice-packs: please make sure your ice-packs are labelled with your name. There is a small charge of 50p per ice pack per week.
Gas Cylinders
These are available for hire or exchange in the following sizes:
Calor Gas (butane) 4.5kg; 7kg; 15kg
Camping Gaz 901; 904, 907
We also have for sale a large range of disposable gas canisters, paraffin, methylated spirits, charcoal and disposable barbecues.
Camping equipment
We do not hire equipment, though we do carry a good variety of small spares e.g. pegs, rubber rings, Duck tape etc. (We can invariably help out if you have forgotten or broken something!)
