More info

The site is approached by half a mile of farmer's lane which turns on to the main camping field (with parking area) via a hard track. At the top of this track you will find Malinkey's Tea Shop and Look Out Café with views across the Fayre and Tor beyond. The shop can take your orders and purchase all your requirements from local suppliers on a twice daily basis (according to demand).

Camplight will be at the Fayre and can provide a ready pitched tent, airbed and clean sleeping bag and pillow if required. Scattered around the site there will be more than adequate compost toilets as well as steam heated showers.

In the Whirl-y-Garden will be the Whirl-y-Gig Global Disco in the round big top and the Whirl-y-Teez Party Parlour in the oval big top. These will be linked by the Parlour Bar (with everything from real ales and cider to wine and spirits) and the Eartheart Ambient Café (24 hour catering and after hours ambience). In the garden will be the Bazaar and the Fayre Fire circled by grass banks and trees. Just outside will be the Children and Healing areas, the Tipi Circle, a Psychedelic Art Exhibition and more.

The Whirl-y-Fayre will be a magical gathering of kindred spirit, and where better than in the mystical Vale of Avalon.
