Can I have an outdoor fire or a fire pit?

No outdoor fires are allowed, except a few kinds: barbecues, outside fireplaces, braziers and incinerator fires. They must be contained in facilities or receptacles, in areas the Reviewer has designated and approved.

The rule does not mention fire pits. Whether one counts as an outside fireplace or a brazier is for the Reviewer to say; this guide cannot tell you.

That is a summary in plain words. The passages below are what the documents actually say, and they are the authority.
