Camping

Drivers must choose which field to park their car in

There are important restrictions on vehicles being allowed on to some areas of the site. This is to protect the topsoil from being churned up and mixed with the clay underneath, which would do long term damage to the ground. As a result it is essential that drivers understand the rules and make the appropriate choices. The site is split into three practical areas, you must make choose which on the three fields you will take your car to.

Drivers can either:

Park their car in the quiet camping field and come and go freely all weekend
Park their car in the OOC camping field but not move it again until they are ready to depart the event

If you drive your vehicle down the road to the OOC camping field - then it must remain there until you are ready to depart the site at the end of your weekend. There is assistance available for moving camping equipment.

Quiet Camping Field

Cars may come and go freely throughout the weekend
Use Dadford Road campsite's existing hygiene facilities
Long walk to the IC area
Pitch and park available

The quiet camping field is the first field you come to, it is a long walk from the IC area. This field has the best hygiene facilities we have had for some time - a large building that includes flushing toilets, sinks with hot running water and large shower cubicles. This camp is ideal for anyone who wants a quiet camp to sleep in - or anyone happy to accept those limitations to have access to the best hygiene facilities at night and each morning, but bear in mind that the quiet camp is a 500m walk from Anvil.

Vehicles parked here may come and go freely throughout the weekend. You may pitch and park here or park your car here and move your equipment to the other fields. There is assistance available for moving camping equipment.

OOC Camping Fields

Cars cannot be removed before the end of the event
PD's temporary hygiene facilities will be in place
Short walk to the IC area
Pitch and park available

The OOC camping fields are down the farm track and adjacent to the Anvil field. We will deploy our existing mobile toilet facilities here, these are recirculating toilets with a standpipe nearby for washing hands. This camp is ideal for anyone who wants easy access to their OOC camp throughout the weekend and does not need to leave the site at any point.

Vehicles brought to the OOC camping field must remain there for the rest of the weekend. You will be directed to a spot on the land by our gate team and must leave your vehicle there until you are ready to finally depart the event. You cannot drive to the OOC field, unpack your belongings and then return to park in the Quiet camping field. There is assistance available for moving camping equipment.

IC Camping Fields

No player vehicles allowed on these fields
PD's temporary hygiene facilities will be in place

We have purchased two brand new mobile toilet blocks which will be deployed in the Anvil field. These are recirculating toilets with cold water in the wash basins for washing.

No player vehicles will be allowed onto these fields under any circumstances. There is assistance available for moving camping equipment - from the Quiet camp and the OOC camp fields.
