“Port Eliot Festival: officially The Best Festival in the World!”

Hadley Freeman, The Guardian

“What a beautiful setting and such a unique event, so unlike any other of the normal festivals we have done. The perfect balance of planning and ideas with random surprises.”

David Taylor, British Sea Power manager

“Chris Watson’s Nature Disco into King Creosote followed by 4 bellinis at Caught By The River tent – festival highlights of the decade for me.”

Robin Turner, Caught By The River

“Where else would you see rock star Evan Dando helping the WI packing up their stall?”

Rowan Pelling, the Telegraph

Wild swimming and wood-fired hot tubs; The Wire’s Dominic West dancing to the Queens of Noize; jamming by the river with Romeo Stodart, Kathryn Williams and John Head; beautiful girls attired in free outfits made on site by Barbara Hulanicki and Luella Bartley with hats by Mr Hedonist, Stephen Jones; Chris Watson’s Nature Disco in the brand new Caught By The River Stage… We danced until the stars came down from the rafters and sat in reverie watching the changing colours of the waves on the estuary - 2009 was the best Port Eliot Festival yet.
