There are few worse experiences at a festival than waking up after a long night mashed in front of the main stage to find your tent has escaped in the night and you’re actually lying in a puddle underneath a cow, rather than inside the polyester pleasure dome your mind had imagined.
If this has happened to you, then finally help is at hand as ClashMusic.com are offering free festival accommodation as part of our Festivals Competition.
With yurts, squrts, tents, tipis and much more available why don’t you try these boutique camping options on for size in ’09?
Tangerine Fields
For the lazy-but-not-quite-filthy-rich festohead. Simply rock up to find your tent already erected on the perfect camping spot that some kind person has picked out for you. Your mates are all camped next to you. All you need to do is start the party. Ranges from the two-person FreeDom (£60) to the eight-person Tipi (£840).

Yurts and Squrts
Take a leaf out of the nomadic handbook and get yourself into one of these extremely comfy, well-insulated wooden structures, cropping up in various sizes (yurts are bigger than squrts apparently) for prices from £220 per festival weekend for an unfurnished squrt and £390 per weekend for a yurt.
