Love it or loathe it, camping is a bit of a British festival rite of passage. Traversing a slightly boggy field after one too many tinnies, wriggling into a tiny pop-up tent with all of the structural integrity of a chocolate teapot, and grimly ‘showering’ with nothing but a pack of trusty wet wipes is just part of the incredibly glamorous experience – and unsurprisingly it’s not for everyone.
If all of this sounds a bit like you, never fear. As well as London’s huge selection of day festivals (sleeping in your own bed!? Heavenly) there are also plenty of parties a mere train ride away from the capital.
