Accommodation Options at Groundswell

 

1. Glamping Bell Tents With Woodville Projects:

Due to the popularity of the Glamping in previous years, Groundswell 2024 will be partnering again with Woodville Project, book your Glamping spot direct via their website. The prices start at £60 per person (for the nights 25th, 26th and 27th June inclusive). Your Woodville glamping booking includes use of the hot showers and toilets. During the event the reception tent will be open from 10.00am – 8.00pm. On the first day of the event, and in most cases the second, we are open to midnight ​to check you in. The Glamping Field will be located outside of the Pasture Field in 2024 to provide a more peaceful environment away from generators etc.

Attendees are very welcome to bring their own tent and pitch up in the camping area where loos, hot showers and drinking water is provided.
