From Scotland!

Post by shezam »

Hi everyone,

I jst found out about this festival today, need a bit of help.

Me and my partner are thinking of buying tickets for this, when we do, do we get allocated a chalet? and will it be a 2 person chalet or would we have to share with other festival goers?

Also, not sure how to get down to Butlins, anyone else travelling from Scotland?

Thank you in advance

When you buy a chalet, this is a private holiday apartment with beds, living room etc.

So, if you buy a 2 berth, it will just be you guys in it.... or you can get more friends to come along and buy a larger chalet eg a 4 or a 6 berth.

There are plenty of Scots coming down I believe...

if you are travelling with a group of say 4-6 people and you or anyone else can drive i would strongly recommend hiring a people carrier for the weekend, we are getting a 7 seater for £200 for the weekend

we done this for glade festival too, works out round about £80-£100 each and that includes petrol for travelling

We're travelling with 7. Trying to sort out the best way to get from Bristol Airport.

Option A is a ppl carrier, though may be tight with bags n ravers.
Option B is hire 2 fiestas and do a pseudo italian Job thingy:)
