Yes, you'll be walking through the camper van field on your way in to the festival from the car park, with nothing to stop you going in for a closer look. There are regular or large pitches, all pretty generous.

If it helps, we go for a large one and just about squeeze a transit van, a 3 man tent and an event shelter between the lines, so they are quite big pitches.

Thanks for the reply guys i might wander thru the campavan field thru the weekend and have alook then as the small pitch says no awning which puts me off incase i do get an awning!

Policing is very relaxed, provided you stay within your lines I'd say. I don't think we're supposed to have an event shelter as well as a tent next to our van, but we've done it without issue for years. It's a happy vibe up there.

I am very possibly wrong about this but I do think that the pitch you get allocated appears to be related to your time of arrival, (i.e. you get the next one available) rather than the price you paid for a small, medium or large pitch.  They all appear to be the same size to me.

Not my experience. I've always got the size I paid for.

time of arrival is how far you are from the entrance (as someone usually getting there on Fridays) but there are deffo different sized pitches

I gather the later you arrive the further away from the entrance to the festival you are?

Not necessarily. They seem to fill it row by row. We're usually there really early and some years we've been at the end of the row, furthest from the entrance. It's not all that far really and it means you have a bush to wee in during the night 🙂
