Yes the Bulverton site is definitely operational this year.

There is a bus running to and from the other campsites regularly until 2.15am. They aren't so far out as you think...in fact Part Thorn where we have stayed for the past five years, is only aobut the same distance out of town as Bulverton, and it's a lovely walk down the cliff path (though up is not so good!)

The campsite behind the arena hasn't been a campsite for years.

As far as I know, they are still looking for more campsite stewards, though there are some....were you wanting to steward on the campsite then?
