About Kettles Farm Glamping

The site is set within 10 acres of grassland, offering peaceful views over the lake and easy access to great walking and cycling country. Picnic benches with umbrellas allow guests to relax and take in the view. Although close to a charming village, Kettles Farm is also an easy drive of 10 miles from the bustle of Bury St Edmunds or around a half-hour drive from Ipswich for a day out. All of the pods are heated with their own kitchenette equipped with a microwave, toaster, kettle, fridge freezer, crockery, cooking utensils and dining area. Outside, each one also has an individual decking with patio furniture and a BBQ. The smaller pod Wren is perfect for two adults, fitted with a double sofa bed with bedding, table and chairs, mini fridge, microwave and patio with BBQ and fire pit outside. Shared toilet and shower facilities are nearby. Dogs are allowed to stay here. The Kingfisher and Woodpecker pods both sleep four people in a double bed and sofa bed with linen provided. There is an ensuite WC but no shower, shared facilities are nearby. These pods are dog friendly. The Robin pod is exactly the same as the Kingfisher and Woodpecker pods, but no dogs are allowed.

Camping Pod - Large Pet Friendly Glamping PodsAug 2024

Carole and Will were fantastic. We were looked after very well. The place is fantastic and magical. Many things to do in the villages around but the location and the pod were so comfortable that we couldn't bother to go out. We enjoyed every minute and we didn't want to leave. Absolutely fantastic!! Very happy!

Peace and quiet in a luxury pod in a superb location
