I was a bit nervous about taking the kids for the first time, but I worried for nothing as the space was perfect! We loved being in a festival surrounded by nature, and the activities were spot on! I even managed to check out the hot tubs amongst the trees. We always look forward to Elderflower Fields every year for a fun weekend camping and dancing with our friends and dressing up too! Brilliantly run weekend with so much to keep the kids entertained and excellent food too.
