We were there, and there were lots of tents alongside caravans and camper vans. As for space there was plenty. We got there late on thursday night and a steward tried to shoehorn our camper into much too wee a space. We waited until he left then simply moved up the hill to a flatter and less crowded area.
There didn't seem to be a limit on space for tents/awnings, but most folk were sensible and didn't take the piss by setting up a tented commune around their works transit van or whatever they tried to pass off as a 'camper'.

cheers

Nah! most folk parked alongside their caravans.

Agree - Belladrum was the best. We did a festival every fortnight from the start of June. Brampton Live was also good.

Friday night was spoiled for us by non-existent security and a "family from hell" that played music at speaker destroying volume all night. About 3 spaces from us.

We were in a camper van and had no alternative to be in the main field - and in a way I wanted to be there as I quite like to strum a few tunes at the end of the evening which can be quite late. Thankfully our 3 year old slept through - more or less. But it took the edge off Friday night which was a shame because the rest of it was brilliant. Saturday, we resorted to speaking to one of the boys in blue who came round every couple of hours - no repeat of Friday.

Loomer were the best discovery of the summer for me.

Cornbury will be one we avoid - rip-off fest - long queues at the bar, long queues for food.......awful - we only really went to catch the Waterboys again....

And of the littluns....Dent Festival was great.

Looking forward to Bella next year!!

Thanks everyone.
