Bestival accommodation - Last call!

Going to Bestival, but didn’t get in on the luxe tipi option? Still hoping to bag a bus or snag a podpad? Sorry to say, they're all gone.

Luckily, however, having literally trawled the internet and doing the rounds at the travel agents, there are some off-site gems left. Hey, it may not be your first choice, but if you've left it this late, a bed's a bed.

Also, do check the Bestival site, too, as we hear that there may still be a couple of beach huts and Bohemian Bivouacs left, which would of course, be your best bet.
