About the site


This is a friendly and well run glamping site in Suffolk, nestled within a tranquil woodland setting. The site has four ensuite MegaPods, each sleeping four people with a double bed and double sofa-bed. The pods also have a kitchenette with sink, fridge, microwave, kettle and toaster, plus a brick built BBQ outside. Set far enough apart to offer privacy, the pods are still close enough to be perfect for group bookings. They are in a WiFi-free environment, so you can enjoy switching off and spending time with each other or the children, who are able to run and play freely in the woodland. Alongside the pods is the cabin style, Cedar Lodge, offering a furnished interior with a comfy double sofa bed. Inside is a fully-fitted kitchen, an ensuite shower room and a comfy double sofa bed. Or, why not try the Woodland Lodge, which offers two bedrooms, one with a double bed and one with bunk beds, a shower room and a kitchenette. Both the lodges offer the perfect getaway in the country, complete with WiFi and parking outside. Dogs are welcome.
