Photography, filming & audio restrictions


At Foxlease Park we love to see what our customers have been up to and encourage guests to record their experiences but would ask that photos or videos only be taken of their own group or the site due to safeguarding and GDPR consents. We may ask groups (in advance) for photo permissions so we can take some photos for marketing purposes.
