CAR

If coming by car and coming *from* Tunbridge Wells…the turning is on the left - just after the Nevill Crest and Gun Pub and opposite the church, off the A26. Please follow the driveway straight down. You will go over 2 cattle-grids. Keeping following the road - until you see the main house in front of you and you follow the road to the left - all the way around the main house and there will be someone to show you where to park there.

We are proudly a carbon negative festival. So we encourage all people to car share if they can…if you are looking for a ride or have space in your car to offer a ride then please share in the Heart of the Rose Facebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/413790187260113

Book Camping & Glamping at Heart of the Rose

At Heart of the Rose, we understand that how you rest is just as important as how you gather. For those who want to arrive feeling held, supported, and at ease, we offer pre-arranged camping options created especially for women. Whether you’re looking for simple shelter or a more cocooned glamping experience, these spaces are designed so you can arrive, settle in, and focus on the festival itself not the logistics.

We’re delighted to collaborate with two trusted tent providers who will have everything set up and ready for you on arrival. Please see below for details.

Hearthworks

Hearth orks offers a glamping experience rooted in comfort, care, and beauty. Their thoughtfully styled tents provide a soft landing after full days of ceremony, music, and connection. With beds, furnishings, and a sense of warmth already in place, Hearth Works is ideal for those who want their camping space to feel like a sanctuary somewhere to rest deeply and be nourished between gatherings.
