We have a large camping field with showers and toilets.

Advanced booked workshops will be held in marquees.

The Big Barn, adjacent to the field, will house the indoor stage, licenced bar, cafe and stalls.

Thornborough is a village in Buckinghamshire and is located about two miles east of Buckingham. The village name, meaning "hill where thorn trees grow", is Anglo Saxon in origin and the village was recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Torneberge.

The village also has the earthworks of a Roman village on its western border, a manor house with associated tithe barns and in the centre of the village, next to the pond is the village church, one of very few in Britain to have steel bells.

OS map On the OS map look for Coates Farm, the old name of Meadow Valley Farm. The arrow points to the entrance.

From the air (Google maps) The Post code is not too accurate! The actual ABCD site is the next building to the east of the red balloon shaped marker and on the north side of the road.

We want to keep the residents of Thornborough happy! Wherever you come from you are likely to come along the A421. If you are coming from the west please respect the villagers in Thornborough and go past the turning at The Folly and turn left just before Fair Winter Farm, signposted 'Thornton,' then left again at Dancers grave (no connection to any workshops we may be running!). In this way we can avoid any excessive traffic through the village. If you are totaly confused by these directions please click the OS map link above, all will become clear!

For those of you with a sat nav latitude 51°59'41.67"N and longitude 0°54'13.67"W will take you to the gate!
