How the camp works

Each morning there is a meeting at 10am in the largest marquee, where you can find out more about camp arrangements and workshops for the coming day. The workshops are held in a selection of marquees, yurts, domes and Tipi's of various sizes. The Café marquee is a central focus to the camp, and in the evenings hosts 'The Venue' giving the opportunity for live performances.

There will be a musicians forum, song writers circle, a camp scratch band, The Venue @ the Café, Jamming zone, late café scene and opportunities to support various workshops with live music. If you enjoy drumming we always make time to drum together around the central fire, this often brings out the camp fire twirlers who enjoy entertaining us with their breathtaking skills.

  

The Laughing Buddha

General domestics at camp

We have the Water World, a beautiful environment with piping Hot Showers and a relaxing Sauna, all fired by wood burners. Our Toilets are the best: - Clean organic earth toilets with loo roll provided! We have sinks for hand washing and standpipes to fill your water containers The Laughing Buddha is our camp retail experience par excellence, where you can come and explore a fabulous range of Clothes, Textiles, Instruments, Camp fire trivets etc... An ever changing Aladdin's cave of ideas and inspiration.

  
Pedal power to the people!

During the winter, we have spent time developing and building a pedal powered stage for this summers Music Camp. After many hours of building and testing we have an adapted bicycle, linked up with a car alternator, giving us power to a bank of batteries which in turn gives us 12volts of energy to power the stage in the Café.

This means we can offer a fabulous way to enjoy the live music at this year’s camp, courtesy of people power. A big plus is it cuts out the need for a generator and is a more camp and, environment friendly way to enjoy the stage in the Venue @ the Café
