  I have emailed above campsite for info. They say that you don't need to make a reservation so I've asked what happens if they are full. Prices are per night (CHEEEAP!!). I've asked if they can provide a tent or not.
  
  Email Response from Campsite:
  Resevation is not possible, but you do not need it anyway as it is a coming and going on this campsite. We ALWAYS have space for tents. For caravans and motor homes Normal no problem.
