Thread Name: Help: Quiet Festival nights?
Subject: RE: Help: Quiet Festival nights?
I think most sites have a 'quiet end'... usually one would not pitch near to the food tent and expect an early night... also one might expect an entrance gateway to be quite busy with people coming and going.

On this particular Whitby site there is no communal area or food tent as it is a primary school sports field on a small housing estate, there are other places to relax off the site. The incident mentioned at the start of the thread was a very small group of about 6 campsite stewards (including me) who, because of all the problems, had hardly left the site all week... it was closing night.. we felt we deserved to relax too, we were in a caravan close to the entrance... the person who made the complaint had chosen to put his trailer close to the entrance too, he did not have children.
