The Byre - Ground Floor Accessibility

The Byre is part of the Old Shippon building and offers ground-floor accommodation, suitable for up to 14 guests. This area is accessible through a separate outside entrance with a ramp, although the entrance ramp may present challenges for individuals navigating alone due to a weatherboard. The Byre includes:

- A kitchen and living area that is accessible by wheelchair.

- Bathroom with two toilets, two showers and two sinks. Suitable for people with mobility issues including wheelchairs (please call for more details).

General Accommodation Details

The main kitchen and sitting area in the Old Shippon are accessible via seven stone steps, which may be a barrier for guests using wheelchairs.

The ground surrounding the accommodation is concrete so is navigable via wheelchair however it is slightly uneven and not fully tarmacked, adding an additional element to consider for those with mobility aids.

Free Entry for Carers

At our festival, we recognise and appreciate the vital role that carers play. We are pleased to offer free entry for carers accompanying guests who require assistance. This full ticket includes the same access to the festival, including food and all other benefits, ensuring carers can enjoy the festival experience alongside those they are assisting. There are however limited tickets. Please contact us before Thursday 23 May 2024 to enquire about this ticket.

Booking Process

To manage accommodations and capacity effectively, we ask that carers and their guests apply for tickets early. This process helps us ensure that we have adequate space and resources available for everyone. If you get in touch with the team we will provide reservation codes to guarantee your place, along with a booking code for the carer's free entry.

Important Dates

Please note that the application deadline for a carer ticket is 23rd May. This ensures that all arrangements are made well in advance. We strongly encourage you to apply early to facilitate the best possible experience.
