Free Minibus
We'll be running a free minibus service between the Festival site and Taunton Railway Station, up to four times an hour on Wednesday, Sunday and Monday. The minibus will pick up from the recycling point in the large pay-and-display car park. Whichever platform you arrive on, go down the steps, turn right at the bottom, go along the subway towards the ticket office and leave by the main entrance: cross the side road, up the steps and head to the far side of the car park where you'll see the recycling point. Look for a Buddhafield Steward.
Taxis
If you need to catch a taxi up to the site, most cabs wait at the back of the railway station, near the platform for London arrivals, rather than at the front near the ticket office. A few numbers are:
- CJs, 01823 337999
- Ace, 01823 330330
- Taunton London Cabs, 01823 283822
- Deane Taxis, 01823 323232
- Swift Cabs, 01823 270601
Fares are typically £10 to £15 daytime and a bit more at evenings and weekends.
