I've never been to Lyndhurst. However, in the past when the Fest has had bus trips to there, they've alerted fans to bring a lunch to eat out on the grounds. So, I would think that you should probably be able to eat on the grounds too.

I really enjoyed having lunch there when I attended the 2004 fest.  I sat at one of the tables outside the Carriage House and it was hot but pleasant.  Lots of people milling around but the grounds are so big you still get the feeling of space and calm.  I think I'll buy it and move in.  LOL.  (Geez, has that really been 3 years ago!)

Have fun!

That is a picture of Seaview Terrace in R.I.  I enjoyed it when the festival went there in 2003.

Does anyone know if dogs are allowed on the grounds of Lyndhurst. Like a small puppy that might fit in a handbag perhaps??
