Caravanning,hints/tips.

[GINGERWILDCAT]

This is the first time i've taken the van to Glasto,looked through the forums and couldn't glean much info,can anyone give any info/hints/tips?

Is the site flat,hilly,is it prone to getting as hellishly muddy as the tent fields?

Rumour had it that security searched vans for bottles,true or bo&&ox?

Getting there wednesday about 10pm,will vans queue to get on?

Is it advisable(as we've done when camping)to be up and off at 6am on monday to avoid queues?

All this sort of info would be much appreciated.

Cheers.

Should be enough to get you started.

Fields are mostly all flat, save for the one nearest PGC but that's usually crew camping. They're at the top of a hill and see considerably less footfall so don't churn up in the rain - not until people start driving over them en masse on the way out anyway. Yes, your van will be searched. Probably won't have to queue much on Wednesday night, no more than the cars anyway. Have a lazy Monday and leave at your leisure.

What happens if you turn up at 3am?Will there be stewards there?Will they show you to you to a pitch?When you're camping it's everyone to themselves,obviously the campervan/caravan sites can't possibly be that adhoc,can they?Is your 20' (think that's the size)square pitch laid out for you or do the stewards guestimate the pitch size and stick you on it? So many questions!!!!

the gates are open 24hours with Stewards parking you, please do not worry, we cannot leave you to be adhoc in this area as we need to monitor the space

the steward guess the pitch, but you get enough room, or at least you should

Hi Dexie

If we turn up with friends in convoys is there any reason we won't get parked together?

Thanks!
