New Tent Open

17th May 2016

20160429_165944
Lapwing, our new tent, is now available to book. The same sized tent, with slightly different furnishing, it has now welcomed its first guests. I’m delighted to say that although the view is of course slightly different it is just as good. Inside it is equally light and airy, warm and cosy, thanks to the extra windows and efficient log-burner. We can now offer you the chance to chill at either end of this beautiful meadow on one of the loveliest glamping sites available. (Of course we are not biased, we know our pictures speak for themselves, not to mention our reviews). There is ONLY ONE weekend in June currently available. Grab it quickly. There is no better place to relax in the glorious South Downs.

For the past weeks we have been busy preparing the tent for the new season. Even on a cloudy day yesterday it was lovely up there. Bookings are coming in fast so now is the time to think about planning a spring break in the beautiful South Downs.Accom2.25-1_8885_

Blackberries are ripening

23rd August 2015

Blackberries are ripening in many of our hedgerows now. September is just the time to enjoy some late summer sun and it looks as though we will have a bumper crop of blackberries this year. I nearly tripped over some close to the tent this evening – blackberry and apple crumble will soon be on its way! Well, if they don’t get eaten on my breakfast muesli first.

20 miles of the South Downs Way

Join the South Downs Way here.

Our latest guests walked 20 miles of the South Downs Way.

Here’s what Cait had to say:

We had a brilliant weekend in this fabulous tent. It’s in a beautiful secluded location with amazing views across the South Downs. The owner had put a lot of thought into the set up of the tent and there was everything you could possibly need for a holiday stay. She was incredibly helpful – meeting us and our supermarket delivery driver! There were also food essentials provided, including delicious bread and lemon drizzle cake. Cooking on the wood stove was great fun and the beds were comfy – very welcome after a long day’s walking on the downs. Couldn’t recommend it highly enough.

Thanks Cait. We’re so glad you enjoyed it.

Grange Park Opera Season Opens

12th June 2015

This year’s Grange Park opera season has now opened. If you love opera it’s a very special occasion. What could be better than chilling in our luxury safari tent and then going to the opera? We’re only 30 minutes away and so much more fun than a hotel. IMG_7960-500x500
