Anyone go last year? Really tempted by this but want to know more.

I went back in 2011. Was one of the most beautiful festival sights I've been to and there was lots to do in the days so would be a great one for families. Very middle class crowd though and prices for some things were absolutely ridiculous (you could buy a "bespoke" headdress for £200...200!!!) which is why I won't be going back. It is a nice relaxed festie though and not everything is as overpriced as said headdress...

I went for the first time last year and wasn't sure about going back, but decided to do it. It definitely offers something different, very laid back, not terribly music orientated, but loads to see and do.

It definitely relies on good weather though and I imagine if it rains all weekend it will be utterly shit. Just got to hope that doesn't happen!

The food stalls were fabulous. I had brilliant fish and chips from J Sheekey for £10.

We saw a great theatre production of Jabberwocky, set out in the woods. I think that cost £8.

The campsite was very spacious, load of room around the tents. The toilets were the cleanest I've seen at a festival and there are free showers, though the queues are pretty long in the mornings (I confess I didn't use them, I swam in the lake). My friend showered at night before bed. No queues then.

Worth a go, if you fancy something chilled out and a bit different.

Agree with all of the above, great festival, going again this year. Just have some spare early bird tickets to pass on if anyone's looking, save yourself a few quid on the general sale prices. As per post in the ticket sale forum.

anyone going to this?

Does anyone know if they release times before hand?

[plusjkb]

off for the third year. they haven't released times in previous years from what I remember. Take a bit of cash for the book on the gate, which hopefully might come with a lanyard this year!

Might check this one out next year so keen to see reports next week

[adequate8]

can you not book any of the meals/spas then? website said closed midnight day before yesterday...

Hi, there's an info tent on site that was near the main stage. You could go there to book tickets for the various extras such as meals, plays, workshops etc. However, many of these will have already sold out on the shop weeks or even months ago. hope you enjoy the weekend and get some tickets for extras though!
