Lost Horizons

[paulshane]

Are they going to be at the festval this year? I haven't seen a  crowdfunder etc to buy wristbands, the website says they will be there, but no other info.

 

I've been a few times, but last year was the first I got the confidence to undress a bit  🙂

 

and the showers were great.

They do have a crowdfunder for this year, but it doesn't seem to have got much in the way of attention.

I've seen a post somewhere form them saying that they will be at Glastonbury, they cancelled some other festivals but would be in Pilton, that was a while ago but I guess we'll see NEXT MONTHS 😁

Their website says they are only doing Glasto and SGP this year.

Their Instagram now says only Glasto, no SGP.

How good are the showers here? Is there ever a queue? Debating paying the weekend ticket price just so I don’t have to queue at the worthy view ones. I’ll be visiting here on the Thursday anyway

Showers are good and hot but like everything, can have a queue at peak times. You can avoid waiting by having a sauna, if there’s space.

Or a cold shower! Which is all I've ever had at LH! Glorious after the sauna.

How much does it cost just to have a shower there. Would be nice to have a shower mid festival.

Last year I found that having a shower completely turned me around but the queues at green peace was just a bit too much.

I think last time it was roughly £50 for a weekend pass so i assume £10 a day

I've never got around to visiting lost horizons but it's on my list of things to get to, do you lovely people know if I decide to pay for a one time visit and while there really love it and decide I'm going to come back more often, can I upgrade to a weekend pass by just paying the difference or would I have to pay full price for the weekend pass?

TIA

I don’t know the official answer but I’d be very surprised if they didn’t let you upgrade by paying the difference. They let us in for a quick look around before we committed to paying last time, they’re pretty laid back.

Thanks, That's what I was thinking but thought best to ask...

I went for a the first time last year, a day pass, very enjoyable and a lovely contrast, if the weather's good I hope to return.

Would someone be so kind as to mark on the map where it is usually located? (roughly)

They're incredibly chilled and relaxed people running it. I would be astonished if they didn't let you do this - after all, they're not flush with funds, so they're unlikely to turn down your cash!

I did exactly this in 2019.  In fact I think I negotiated slightly less than the difference to upgrade, although I only went back a couple of times for a shower when it was scorchio and the showers elsewhere had been turned off.

they are normally located in the tipi field, if you're heading from the stone circle towards the Park, it'll be on your left as you walk past the tipis.
