How to enjoy a festival in the lap of luxury

It’s festival time again and if you’ve booked to attend one and are planning on camping, the current unsettled weather may be a worry - especially if you have young children.

It’s no fun trying to keep everyone happy, clean and dry when the field has turned to mud and all your clothes are damp and uncomfortable. That might be a rite of passage for teenagers but not so for the rest of us.

I’ve been a regular at Tribfest in East Yorkshire for many years and, though I don’t generally mind spending a night or two under canvas, I now always opt for a spot of luxury when I go there. It’s held in the middle of August and I think it’s rained at least once every year I’ve attended.
