An eco-friendly festival - powered by chip fat, bicycle and solar power - was enjoyed by about a 1,000 people at the weekend.

Wood Festival, at Braziers Park, Ipsden, near Wallingford, attracted revellers and bands from all over the county and from further afield.

Saturday's weather failed to dampen the spirits as both children and adults soaked up the atmosphere and enjoyed the entertainment.

Adam Gill, 25, from Brighton, said: "I would say it was the best festival I have ever been to. It's had a really lovely communal vibe.

"There was a lovely selection of things and I love the fact that there were kids running around.

"The workshops were amazing. I tried harmony singing and poetry."

The family festival was organised by brothers Joe and Robin Bennett, of the band Goldrush, as a sister event to Steventon's annual Truck Festival.

Joe said: "I hope it is going to be an annual event.

"I've not spoken to anyone who is not having a fantastic time.

"It has a very hippy vibe like the first Truck festival in 1998. I think it's going to be hard to keep this one off the radar for long."

The three-day event, which finished on Sunday, included a line-up featuring Get Cape, Wear Cape, Fly, The Epstein, Danny and the Champions of the World, and bluegrass act The Coal Porters.

Festival-goers could also take part in a host of workshops, teaching everything from making wallets out of juice cartons, instruments out of junk to circle dancing and singing.

Home comforts were not neglected, with facilities including a bus for mothers to breastfeed in, free saunas and showers, and compost toilets.

Julie Gibbs, from Abingdon, took her 10-year-old son Ben.

The 43-year-old said: "Ben thoroughly enjoyed it. He was wood-working all day.

"It was absolutely fantastic - a great chilled atmosphere.

"I am going to highly recommend it to everybody I know that has families who are interested in that kind of thing."
