Thought I'd mention this site I stumbled across:

www.cornish-tipi-holidays.co.uk/

Thought it might add some nice atmosphere to an event.  I spoke to one of the owners and explained the hobbey who said she'd have no problem with a bunch of guys with swords acting like maniacs.

Looks great, not been there and think it would be a great site.  I think it would be more suited to fest style than linear though, although it seems you could just book out part of the site.

Looks a bit expensive... at several hundred quid per tipi per week (can't you buy one for not much more than that?!?) you'd probably be talking £1000+ just for a 20-person event for a weekend, on site cost alone.

The problem with tipis is not the cost of buying one but th difficulties in transporting it. the poles are a minumum of 14 feet long, even when broken down it's a logistical pain in the butt. I know this from experiance my tipi is only a little 10 feet one but getting it anywhere is proving impossible.

it might be worth enquiring about using them in their down season as well e.g march (cold to camp but do able)
