More than 3,000 vans were on display in the stately home's grounds for this year's Camper Jam.

The annual event took place from Friday to Sunday, and there was a separate fancy dress theme for each day.

There was also a mile of trade stands for enthusiasts, entertainment by live bands and a food village.

Shelley Bond, event director, said: "It was great to see so many people turn out, with so many great costumes on show as well.

"This year's theme was Wacky Wigs on Friday and Animal Kingdom on Saturday – we urged people to get their best fancy dress gear out and come and join the festival vibe and they certainly did not disappoint!

"This year Saturday day ticket holders were able to stay on for the live bands and evening entertainment we had got planned.

"It was a fantastic two days, really well attended, and we would like to thank everyone who came and got into the spirit of things."

Old favourites returned for this year's show such as the K9 Dog Show and the Cooking in a Camper competition.

But there was also a bit of new as well, with a new indoor artisan market welcoming masters in foods, crafts and handmade goods.
