You possibly need to look for sites that don't use marked pitches. One I can think of is Woodyhyde between Corfe Castle and Swanage in Dorset.

Another one is Norden Farm at Corfe Castle

Or look for campsites with a rally field we have an outwell Vermont xlp at 8x5.1 and never had any problems
If you just tell the campsite owners your unit size most of them will have pitches to suit

-------------
April Peak District Beech Croft Farm
May Peak District Duke of York
May Holland Delfse Hout
June Cotton Arms Nantwich
july/aug Cornwall Pentewan Sands
And quite a few local weekenders

Id be interested in these replys...i have a 9x9 and have the same problem :( we have smaller tents but being a family of 6 the large one is perfect...its a pain finding a pitch though. If ever you travel over to weymouth, osmingtom mills corner campsite is £13 a night or £83 a wk...any pitch and size ...thats where we usually end up!

Exe Valley Caravan Site not far from Dulverton, it's a nice site with very nice people running it, and once on the pitch you can put up your tent/caravan facing in any direction you fancy.

Hi slapheadgeoff,

As the OP has such a large tent it is probable they have children and Exe Valley is adult only. Not only that but if you have a tent they make you move it every 7 days (so as not to spoil the grass).

John
