Visit
Getting There
Reachable by scenic backroads, regional rail, and a short ferry crossing. Shuttle service runs hourly from nearby town centres throughout the festival weekend.
Where to Stay
Choose from lakeside bell tents, farm cottages, boutique B&Bs, and quiet camping clearings. Early booking strongly recommended for waterside pitches.
What to Bring
Layers for cool evenings, sturdy walking shoes, a refillable bottle, notebook, and a torch for lantern-lit paths back to your tent after talks.
Accessibility
Step-free routes, accessible washrooms, hearing loops in main tents, and quiet zones are available. Contact our team with specific needs in advance.
Arriving at the Lake
The festival grounds sit on a private peninsula reached by a single gravel lane. Parking is limited and reserved; most guests arrive by shuttle from the nearby market town, twenty minutes away.
On foot, the final approach is a gentle fifteen-minute walk through meadow and pine. Trolleys are available for luggage, and staff will greet you at the water's edge.
