Default West Campervan fields closed???
I've just heard via efests that the West side campervan fields have been closed.

Can anyone confirm this?

Thank you
Tanya

I have just had an email from Glasto office.
To confirm things:
They had to close due to floods but they have re-opened them today!
There is still a lot if water/mud on site.

Like I said in my earlier post - the fields are open again today as the rain has stopped.
Keep an eye on the weather - all will be revealed tomorrow I'm sure - I would expect them to relocate if things get much worse.

I feel for you! Something I know too well. Last year we travelled down in an early bay, broke down sooooo many times it was unreal - the samba and ghia stay at home for such festivals - we're glamping it up in a 1978 caravan haha!
Good luck on the journey
