Dear Christine,
Thank you for your question - apologies for the late reply it seems like my previous responses did not go through (internet technology - eish!!)
We are enclosed by High palisade fencing, which gets locked at night – we endeavour to get all vehicles etc. inside the parking areas. Although parking is behind palisade fencing and with lockable gates we cannot guarantee safety.
Kind regards
