I know this is a very unlikely request, but I have a choice of 3 camping tickets for Houx campsite for the summer, but obviously the campsite layout map doesn't show where the trees are.

Of course, I wouldn't really like to share my pitch with a large wooden friend so I was wondering which areas are best to avoid as regards trees.

The tickets are in either block 2, block 3 or block 7.

Just wondered if anyone who has stayed in Houx before knows which plots are tree-free and if the ones available to me will be without foliage or not.

Wierd question I know but worth a try!

I think its a case of suck it and see situation here

If you have a group of pitches its not such as big issue as you can be flexible with your spaces

Shnozz, was it one of your party that last year that had a tree slap-bang in the middle of your pitch making it next to useless?

Trees around your plot can be useful for some shade if its baking hot or shelter if its wet. I would want a tree or two close by although not in my plot.

Ben can confirm that the roots are in the ground, and the trunk, branches and leaves are all above ground.

the other thing is that they are pine trees and what do pine trees have..............
cones.
Last year it was a tricky thing parking where a cone would not fall on my beloved!
They also drop lovely sticky sap! nice on the bodywork even better on the hood

cannot remember my plot number last year, but I was opposite the shop, plenty of the suckers there!
(so between the inner roadway and the access road outside the site).

You also have to take into consideration the dust!
gets into everything!
