There is a spectacular three-day camping event called Camp Bestival by the Jurassic seaside in Dorset. Even though I don’t camp there, but instead get a room at a Dorset Hotel, I still manage to enjoy the Bestival. It’s a family event which the legendary Lulworth Castle hosts on one of the most beautiful estates in all of England. They only allow 10,000 tickets to be sold, making the Bestival an intimate affair.

Camp Bestival was inspired by the 50′s British Holiday Camp. That inspiration now allows festival goers to bask in nostalgia, back when life seems uncomplicated and easy going. The program includes a line-up of excellent artists which will entertain you at the biggest campsite ever and has excellent facilities for the outdoor life. Plus, the give you a generous sprinkle of Bestival magic. Combining top notch music with excellent onsite camping, tents, tepees, yurts, bivouacs, airstreams and gypsy caravans, Camp Bestival let you enjoy your stay. But, if you enjoy luxurious accommodations rather than affordable tents, then do what I do, book a room. It’s okay, no one minds. They don’t even notice.

The Bestival prides itself in providing fun for all the families with a super Kids Area, a Story Telling around a roaring campfire, Sports Day, Dancing, and they even have a real life Insect Circus along with an All Singing Kids Summer Party. It will be packed high with kids an their parents. Lulworth Castle even has it’s own Animal Farm. All of us are extremely proud when Camp Bestival won the Best New Festival at the 2008 Festival Awards. It really deserves it too. Even though, I don’t like to camp, I do like to ‘festival’ with the best, and it really is the best. The Facilities are top notch with parking right next to the campsites, roomy areas for chilling out and playing.  Relatively flat landscape. Hot showers that serves tea and toast while you wait! Giant BBQ pits, they even have a farmers market so you can get the freshest fruits and vegetables to cook with at you campsite. What more could a person ask for, if they weren’t me?
