The idea behind Roam Free

Good guests. Good neighbours.

A welcoming overnight stop, a little local custom, and a clear arrangement between traveller and host.

Find a stop that fits

Explore the directory. A verified listing records a positive confirmation with an expiry date; it is not a safety inspection or a guarantee that circumstances have not changed.

Browse the map or list for arrangements confirmed with each host. Check vehicle suitability, arrival times, expected custom and any facilities before travelling.

Check with the venue first

A listing is not a booking, permission to arrive unannounced or a guarantee of space. Contact the venue directly to confirm that it can accommodate you and that the details are still current.

Support your host

The idea is an overnight space in exchange for your custom, such as a meal, a drink or another purchase. The venue sets the arrangement and confirms any costs directly.

Be a considerate guest

  • Arrive and depart at the agreed times, and park where the host asks.
  • Keep noise down and access routes clear.
  • Use your own facilities unless the host explicitly offers theirs.
  • Take litter away and dispose of waste responsibly. Never empty tanks without a designated facility and permission.
  • Follow the venue’s rules about dogs, awnings, outdoor seating and generators.
