Bleasdale is perfectly positioned on the western edge of the Forest of Bowland, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty known for its sweeping views and peaceful charm. Surrounded by open fields, woodlands and rolling hills, this rural glamping site is a haven for walkers, cyclists and families looking to reconnect with nature. Explore nearby nature trails, admire the dramatic Bowland Fells, or simply relax on your private deck with the sounds of birdsong and rustling leaves. The spacious safari tents are thoughtfully equipped with comfortable beds, a wood-burning stove and a private shower room, blending rustic charm with homely comforts. By night, the lack of light pollution allows for truly spectacular stargazing under clear Lancashire skies. Families can enjoy nearby attractions, from Bowland Wild Boar Park to the charming market town of Garstang, while couples will love the peaceful setting and scenic sunsets. Whether you’re toasting marshmallows over the firepit or setting off on an early morning walk, Bleasdale offers a beautiful and serene break from everyday life in the heart of northern England’s countryside.
Sweffling is a peaceful hideaway in the Suffolk countryside, nestled between the Suffolk Coast & Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the winding rivers of inland Suffolk. This off-grid glamping site is part of a small, eco-friendly farm, making it perfect for guests who want to disconnect from daily life and immerse themselves in nature. The safari tents are spacious and comfortable, featuring wood-burning stoves, real beds and en-suite facilities, while solar lighting and natural materials maintain a low environmental footprint. Guests can enjoy the farm’s seasonal produce, relax in the wildflower meadows, or spot local wildlife including deer, owls and hedgehogs. With the heritage coastline just a short drive away, day trips to Aldeburgh, Southwold, or RSPB Minsmere are easy and rewarding. At night, the sky fills with stars, offering one of the best stargazing spots in the region. Sweffling is a serene and sustainable retreat for couples, families and anyone craving a true countryside escape, filled with hiking, exploring nearby market towns and relaxing by the fire.
Located on a working organic farm within the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Kittisford Barton offers a perfect mix of rural charm and outdoor adventure. This peaceful Somerset retreat is surrounded by fields, hedgerows and woodland, creating a wildlife haven that’s ideal for families and nature lovers alike. Kids can explore the natural play area, meet farm animals, and enjoy the freedom of wide-open space, while adults will appreciate the tranquillity and stunning views. The safari tents provide all the comforts of home—real beds, a wood-fired stove and a private shower room—while encouraging a simpler, slower pace of life. Guests can stroll along waymarked footpaths, visit nearby Exmoor or the Quantock Hills, or enjoy a day trip to the Somerset coast. In the evenings, gather around the firepit or sit under the stars with a glass of wine in hand. With its mix of comfort, nature and rural experiences, Kittisford Barton is a perfect glamping getaway in the heart of the West Country.
Tucked within the private Exton Park Estate, this Lantern & Larks site offers a peaceful countryside escape surrounded by lakes, parkland and ancient woodland. Just a stone’s throw from the charming village of Exton and a short drive to Rutland Water, it’s an ideal base for exploring the smallest county in England. The setting is rich in wildlife, with deer, birds and butterflies abound, while the mature trees and landscaped grounds create a secluded, relaxing atmosphere. Each spacious tent is comfortably furnished with three bedrooms, a well-equipped kitchen and a wood-burning stove, offering a luxurious retreat. Outside, your private deck is perfect for al fresco dining or simply enjoying the sunset. Whether you’re sailing on Rutland Water, exploring historic Stamford, or unwinding by the firepit, Exton Park offers a blend of outdoor adventure and tranquil relaxation. This off-grid glamping experience is ideal for couples, families, or groups looking for a unique countryside break in a truly picturesque part of the East Midlands.
Considerate hosts. Wonderful hamper. Beautiful garden. Comfy beds. Amazing countryside to explore. What’s not to like!!
The property was very clean and well maintained and very well equipped. A generous welcome basket was provided and the owners were friendly and helpful.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave your feedback for lovely Hearn Lodge.
Dreadful weather holiday. The property was a delight to come home to. All mod cons with very little left out. The best welcome pack we have ever nad.
Thank you for your lovely review, we are so glad that you have enjoyed your stay at Hearn Lodge.
Lovely relaxing comfortable place
The house was spacious, comfortable, immaculate and in the most glorious setting. The owners were really friendly and we would love to come back for another holiday in future.
House is so comfortable and well equipped. Gardens are beautifully stocked with many nooks and crannies to explore as well as lots of open space. Hosts are welcoming and provide a wonderful hamper. So much to enjoy in the Quantocks and nearby Exmoor. Our second visit was even better than the first!
Beautiful house to stay in, immaculately kept. Lovely country, very helpful owners.
Extremely comfortable with large eat in kitchen, lounge and conservatory. Beautiful garden with furniture to enjoy the good weather. Kitchen is extremely well equipped, luxury toiletries and the welcoming basket really terrific. Quiet, rural location with country walks from the property. Highly recommend.
Just what a couple of young boys, with parents and grandparents in tow, needed as a base for a very enjoyable half-term break. The daily blue skies were an added bonus.
Hearn Lodge is exactly as described, a beautiful rural retreat at the foot of the Quantock hills. A fabulous hamper full of lovely quality food was left for us in spacious family kitchen. A cosy sitting room with log fire, comfortable beds with lovely cotton bed linen all contribute towards a cosy, peaceful break. Being able to walk through the conservatory out into the garden for an early morning walk around the 12 acres of fields with the added bonus of unreliable Wifi was bliss!
Comfortable, clean and well equipped. Excellent hamper
We loved Hearne Lodge. It was incredibly comfortable, every detail thought of, and the owners were charming. The views were gorgeous, and we found so much to do that we will definitely have to go back! The internet was the only occasional problem, but not their fault! We had a really great week there.
This retreat had everything we could want except perhaps a toast rack! Absolutely beautiful garden and surroundings, quality fittings, a considerate host, and one of the best and most generous hampers we’ve ever had.
Warm welcome from the owner, excellent hamper, well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, and spacious property. Lovely garden and location. We were a little cold due to the single glazing and single panel radiators. The wood burning stove didn't emit much heat although we were grateful for the generous supply of wood. The decor in the bathrooms was a little tired but we liked the toiletries and fluffy towels provided. We would love to return but in a warmer time of the year!
Lovely cosy cottage. Owners lovely and very helpful. All neat and tidy and clean. Location remote down a single track road so quiet and very rural. Exmoor beautiful with inland and coastal walks. Great place to stay and would definitely return
We were blown away by the standard of the accommodation with its beautiful gardens The house was as beautiful as the pictures looked. We thoroughly enjoyed the stunning hamper that was left for us along with the luxurious white company Bath products. We highly recommend.
Everything was as stated on the website. The property was very spacious for the four of us but warm and cosy at the same time. Spotlessly clean with everything you could want provided, including a very generous welcome pack (hamper). Met the owner on a couple of occasions who was very friendly and helpful. Surrounding countryside is beautiful.
Comfortable, spacious, well equipped with lovely garden & sitting area in quiet country area. Poor broadband & mobile connection but could be seen as a positive!
Lovely cottage furnished and equipped to a very high standard. Can't recommend it highly enough.
Beautiful cottage, idyllic location and very relaxing
