We have a designated responsible person who you can bring your concerns to in confidence at any time.

This applies in the Campsite as well as the event spaces. It’s OK to have them attached to something in your campsite as long as you are present.

- Dogs are not allowed in the Kitchen and some of the workshops.
If your dog is found running loose and we cannot locate you, we reserve the right to remove it from the event site.
Covid response
We have all had different responses to the pandemic and accompanying lock-down. Some people will be desperate to get outdoors and hug everything. Others may be worried about personal space and contact. All we ask is that you are sensitive and non-judgmental towards other people’s responses to this personal and societal trauma. Many issues have become very politicised and we would rather avoid these artificial points of friction, our focus is on working together. We have a detailed Covid risk assessment.
