Starting a campsite is enough of a leap. Your booking system shouldn't be another cost or another headache.

Built for brand-new sites
The Freedom Camping Club is a great route to open a small site: an exemption certificate under the caravan and camping Acts, so you can run a modest field without full planning permission or a council licence. What it doesn't hand you is a way to manage the bookings.
That's where CampSuite comes in, and why it's free to start. When you're a new site, you don't want to commit to expensive software before you've taken your first booking. So take them for free, keep your deposits and guest details in one place, and only pay if and when you grow.
I built CampSuite as a motorhomer who wanted the little independent sites to do well. Getting your bookings sorted early is one of the simplest ways to look professional and get repeat guests.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a booking system for a Freedom Camping Club site?
Yes. CampSuite™ is a booking system that suits Freedom Camping Club sites: a free digital diary for up to five pitches, with online booking, card deposits and automatic confirmations. You get a booking link to share on your club listing and your own website.
How much does it cost for a new exempt site?
You can start completely free. The Express plan is free for up to five pitches with no monthly fee; guests pay a small £1.50 fee per online booking. Paid plans start at £10/month if you want to remove that fee or sync other channels.
Can I take deposits to cut down no-shows?
Yes. You can ask for a card deposit or full payment when a guest books, paid straight into your own Stripe account. It's one of the best ways for a new site to reduce no-shows.
Do I need my own website?
No. CampSuite gives you a hosted booking page with its own link, so you can take online bookings even without a website. If you do have one, including WordPress, you can add booking to it too.
Will it work on my phone out in the field?
Yes. CampSuite runs in your phone's browser with nothing to install, so you can check the diary, add a booking or take a payment from anywhere on site.
Is CampSuite part of the Freedom Camping Club?
No. CampSuite is an independent booking system and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by the Freedom Camping Club. It's simply a good fit for how their member sites take bookings.
