Tucked away snugly in the ‘lower field’ of a Cambridgeshire farmstead, The Secret Garden is without question one of the most beautiful festival sites ever seen. A small brook gurgles through the willows that run the length of the site, and, beyond, a huge lake stretches away into the horizon. All over the site, lights, paintings, rope bridges, flags and streamers blend with the environment. The Secret Garden Party aims to make the festivalgoer feel part of the lunacy and the source of it. Everyone is included and you are as likely to meet a local tractor driver as your mates from London. Side amusements include: giant hammocks, tree houses, the movie tea tent, massage, pub quizzes, children’s treasure hunts, space hopper races, strange competitions, japery and snail racing!
