Camping

Aiming to get a spot at Park Home this year - what time should I be aiming to get onsite to be in with a decent chance?

Thread can also function for discussing other campsites and their demand.

Cheers!

If you're arriving during the daytime on Wednesday you shouldn't have a problem, though of course it does depend on how big your tent is and if you've a bunch of mates who want to camp with you. I pitched my tent there at about 8pm on the Thursday in 2008 without too much bother, though it does have a fairly small footprint compared to some others.

the earlier the better i guess and as already said, it depends on how big your tent actually is

Similar question, different campsite.

Thinking of moving to Big Ground, don't mind been slightly further back in the field and there shouldn't be that large a group, maybe one largeish tent and one or two standard tents (if 2/3 berth is standard).

Is arrival by lunch on Wednesday good enough? I know that's more complicated to answer now with overnight carpark access but...

Depends what you mean by lunchtime, I have camped there the last two festivals, and the latest you could get a spot easily was about 2pm. After that it would still be possible I guess, maybe at the top of the hill or near the toilets.

Do not under any circumstances camp next to the toilets.
