What's it like? I've had a couple of emails telling me about keeping the noise down and being respectful etc. which of course we will be, but i hope there's enough leeway so you can still have some fun at night. It'll be all beni folk anyway i'd imagine!

Anything i need to know about the place, hints or tips greatly appreciated

I stayed there in 2007. Most of the site is full of people for Beni, but there were a few families staying there too who were not. We didn't encounter any problems and we had a french family staying opposite us.

During the day most people hang around the pool area lounging about before getting ready for the night time again. By the time you get back to Bonterra in the early hours it is quiet, a few people are about having a few drinks, but to be honest most people had just crashed out by then! There wasn't any wild/loud parties going on put it that way.

There is a supermarket opposite the entrance to the park which comes in handy and it's a good 20/30 minute walk to the festival site. But I'd recommend it to anyone, gutted I didn't manage to get a bungalow this year. Have fun!

stayed there a couple of times, really nice place. got everything you need right on your doorstep.

security guards were an arse when it came to music at night, you basically can't sit outside and have it even quiet.

but if you want to get some sleep during the day you can't beat a nice air conditioned bungalow!

like mr andy says, don;t expect any wild parties but if that's what you want then bonet is about 10 mins away and you can still retire to the bungalow when you're done

cheers lads! thought it was probably gonna be like that. that'll do me anyway seen as i'm an old codger now anyways we'll just go down the beach with a bottle if we're still in the mood for a party, or go to the end club, if it's still there?
