About this place

Best bits

The luxury, heated bell tents are dreamy. And come with their own private bathrooms and kitchens. Glamping has never been some glam.
Kids will love running riot around the outdoor play area and large, grassy site.
Older kids aren't overlooked, there's a pool table, table tennis, darts, badminton and a games room offering hours of fun whatever the weather.

And if that, plus the radiator doesn't keep you warm enough, additional electric heaters are also available on request.

All guests have their own private and heated ‘posh’ eco-toilet and shower (no sharing with other guests!), which includes a full-length mirror, hairdryer, fluffy towels and mini toiletries.

About the owners

Helen & Louise

We have always loved glamping together and had an ever growing ambition to run their own glamping company. In 2019, after running a very successful family services agency for 11 years, Helen decided to close the company and follow a new direction, with the support of Louise who worked in Lidl. Following the shock of the first covid lockdown we look a ‘leap of faith’ and bought our first bell tent and hot tub.

Within 2 weeks we had 8 bell tents and 8 hot tubs and haven’t looked back since! Thanks to the overwhelming support and love they received during 2020, for the mobile glamping company, we found themselves in the position of being able for open their very first glamping site. It opened in April 2021 and has been fully booked pretty much ever since. It's received wonderful feedback and reviews so far, and we look forward to greeting even more happy families and customers.
