Mark Doran Posted May 23, 2020 Report Share Posted May 23, 2020 You may have heard of the wonderful Lost Horizon Sauna & Solar Stage up in the Tipi Field. It's a great place to relax and revitalise with a sauna, showers, plunge-pool, yoga classes, organic café, live music, trampoline, etc. all in a safe body-positive space. Lost Horizon is a labour of love for its team of devoted volunteers, but love doesn't pay the bills! Attendance at Glastonbury Festival is our main source of income, so this year we're seriously short of finance and have launched a crowdfunder. Please donate what you can afford, however little, to help keep this unique venue going and so we can be back next year. Thank you! https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/lost-horizon-sauna 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrHew Posted May 29, 2020 Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 Bump Lost Horizon is one of my favourite places on site, the sauna is a great way to start a day and always a nice place to getting chatting to strangers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Doran Posted May 31, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2020 We're doing pretty well so far, reaching 38% of our ambitious target. I know it's a difficult time financially for many of our supporters, but I'm determined that this unique venue will survive. Please give what you can afford, even if it's a very modest amount. Karma tells us you'll be richly rewarded. Thank you! https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/lost-horizon-sauna'' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Doran Posted June 16, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2020 Just a gentle bump to keep this thread prominent.

Mark Doran Posted July 1, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2020 Another gentle bump to keep the thread near the top. We've reached 65% of our ambitious target, so only a few more donations should see us set fair to return next June. Our hot sauna, cold plunge and warm showers would have been a godsend last weekend, not to mention the trampoline to dry off! Please give anything you can afford, however small the amount.

That's not really a question that's easy to answer. There's so many "main" campsites. It's close to those near the park and Arcadia, a very long trek from the pyramid.

Yep as above depends where you camp. Sauna is good for pennards, park dairy ground etc or that part of the festival. If your further away and it's hot your gonna be just as hot and sweaty when you get back to your tent after! If you camp near it you can pretty much pop in and out all weekend if you get a weekend pass which is great. Especially if it's hot There's also free showers at the greenpeace field which are good but it gets really busy around breakfast and you could be queing for ages . Also showers in the kids field but I think you need to have kids to use them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I know there's free showers but really don't wanna wait hours would much rather pay 45 quid for lost horizon lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
