ACCOMMODATION

There are a number of options open to you:

1 Bring your own tent/caravan
This is by far the cheapest option, and where possible, individuals will be allocated a pitch alongside others from their local church or geographical area.

2 Hire a tent
Wellspring have a selection of high quality tents available for hire. These will be set up and ready for you on your day of arrival. We offer a range of tent hire packages, from 4 to 8 berths, including the hire of all the equipment you will need for a comfortable and hassle-free stay. Please contact admin@wellspringfm.co.uk or call 01736 710668.

3 Stay off site
If you prefer a different style of accommodation, Wadebridge has plenty of B&B's and hotels - but you will need to book up early to avoid disappointment.

EXTENDED STAY

Why not make a real holiday of it and extend your stay from Saturday 1st to Saturday 8th August. The site will be open from 3pm on Saturday 1st, though please understand that the Wellspring team will be still setting up for the Wellspring event, and as such you will camp at your own risk.

TENT HIRE

Wellspring have tents available for hire, though these are limited. Book early to avoid disappointment. These are pre-pitched and will be available for occupancy from 10:30am on the 3rd August, unless you have booked extended stay, in which case it will be available from 3pm on 1st August until noon on 8th August. Damage to tents may result in additional charges. Contact admin@wellspringfm.co.uk or call 01736 710668 for more information.

On Monday 3rd August the gates will be open from 10:30am. We ask that you vacate the site by 5pm on the 7th, unless you are staying on until the Saturday (by prior arrangement).

DOGS AND OTHER PETS

For the convenience of other guests, pet animals are not permitted on site. Registered assistance dogs for disabled guests are accepted by prior arrangement.

VEHICLES ON SITE

You will be able to drive onto the site to pitch your tent/caravan, after which we ask that for Health and Safety reasons, all cars (except disabled) be kept off the campsite and parked in the onsite car park. If you are staying in a motor home you will be allowed to park on the campsite, though please limit the amount you drive on and off the campsite, keeping your speed to 5mph.

CHILDREN

We will be running a crèche for children up to 5 during the morning bible study (from 9.15am–10.45am), and a full morning and evening programme for children age 5 and upwards. During the evening celebration there will be an all-age worship time from 7.15pm-8.45pm for all the children (ages 0–11) to include parents/guardians who have children 4yrs and under. From 8.45pm-9.15pm there will be a DVD for any children who are still awake! Whilst we are happy to offer these activities, please note that at all times the safety of children remains the responsibility of their parents or guardians.
Please note that the Royal Cornwall Showground is a working site with farm machinery. It is therefore important that you always know where your children are and that you know the start and finish times of the activities they are involved in. It is particularly important that you make sure your children understand that they should obey the instructions of the Wellspring children and youth workers. Every youth and children’s worker will be cleared through the CRB Disclosure process conducted by their home church. A ‘Wellspring child protection policy’ is available on request.
