About The Paddock

With glamping being more and more about the experience, The Paddock really delivers. You can lay your head in the simple perfection of a camping pitch with a roaring fire, or choose to take things up a notch with a set of uniquely quirky glamping Landpods. The pods are packed with individual details and offers the beds you need inside, an enchanting atmosphere, plus a chance to peel back the roof and watch the stars any time you fancy. Or you might fall in love with a spacious and beautifully furnished yurt, strewn with throw pillows, or even a big safari tent that can sleep up to 8! - the choice is yours. The safari tent includes a toasty wood burner, full double bed, bunk bed and sofa beds. Guests are treated to two separate bathrooms, two bedrooms and a kitchen with all the bits and bobs you'll need, plus a large living room with dining table. Outside is a fabulous fire pit and BBQ with log seating. Dogs are welcome with campers and in all glamping options except the Landpods.

Open from 1 April to 31 October
