If anyone is reading this thread wondering whether to go...
Having been last year, I can only say 'Go!' - a great venue, great line up and great value (and friendly, helpful organisers). This festival is well deserving of support.
Anyone deterred by the cost of potential Hotel B&B might consider that Chester is only a short drive away and blessed with a wide range of offordable B&B (trip Advisor website might be a good place to start).
