*Not advertising!*
The End Of The Road festival takes place at Larmer Tree Gardens, North Dorset between 2nd and 4th September. The festival is sold out but a friend and I have day guestlist places for Saturday 3rd Sept.

I'm not sure that we're going to be able to use the festival campsite overnight (and to be honest I could do with a good nights sleep).
Can anyone recommend a campsite nearby? We'll only be staying one night in a small dome tent, toilets and showers would be useful but we don't need much beyond that.

We'll be pitching early afternoon, but potentially we'll need to get back on to the site after midnight.

Any help much appreciated.

Not tried any of them, but check the details and reviews for these sites.

Thanks. The two most convenient on the listings are Blackmore Vale and Church Farm, both of which look possible. Church Farm looks the better of the two but Blackmore Vale is better located if we're driving from Birmingham.

Anyone know of any others in the area which may not be listed?

You can change the radius (from where I think the festival is being held) to 20 miles.

If you're a C&CC member there's a Temporary Holiday Site at Blandford Forum (but own sanitation essential!).

Thanks for the suggestions.

I don't really want to be driving too far from the festival site afterwards.

We don't have our own sanitation!

I'd pitch on site at Larmer Tree (although I am biased as I went there in July!).

You can (I think) stay the night you've got ticket for (although I know the End of the Road is a slightly different set-up). Showers, loos etc were all fine. Try putting Fordingbridge in the search - it's not too far away, or Salisbury even? About 30 mins ONCE YOU GET OFF SITE.

Have fun, wish I was going too.

Thanks for the comment. As you were posting this I got a confirmation email from the festival that we can use their campsite overnight.

Looking forward to it!
