Welcome to our cosy glamorous bell tent set in a truly magical location where the woods meet the reeds. Enjoy the wonderful combination of riverside wilderness, farm animals and comfortable outdoors accommodation which is only ten minutes walk to Woodbridge with all the buzz of a lively Suffolk market town.

We have another bell tent and a shepherds hut, both sleeping four. Also our new addition, a tree tent which sleeps two. Click on my profile pic and scroll down, you’ll find them all there.

The space
It's a unique setting at the edge of a lively town where you can enjoy the beauty of nature only minutes away from cafes and pubs.

The bell tent is in an old willow wood and orchard, part of Spring Farm Barn, a seven acre site which is next to the beautiful river Deben and close to ancient Sutton Hoo.

Inside the tent there is a large double bed with a comfortable mattress and bedding, two single futon mattresses tucked away, a couple of armchairs for lounging in and a blanket box full of, well, blankets for extra comfort.
We provide bed linen and towels.

There is no electricity inside the tent but there are a couple of sockets in the middle of the site where people can charge their phones. If electricity is needed inside the tent for medical reasons then we can provide you with an extension cord or feel free to bring your own. The distance between the tent and the power point is about 30 meters.

In the reeds there is an outdoors heated shower which is shared by all three accommodations.
There are two compost toilets which are up a few steps being a long drop style tree bogs.

Next to the tent you'll find a private cooking and sitting area. We provide a gas camp cooker, ice box with ice packs, pots and pans, utensils, a stove top coffee maker, cutlery and plenty of lovely crockery.
There is also a washing up bowl and liquid, tea towels and dishcloths.

In the middle of the site is a tap with drinking water, no need to bring bottled water.

There is a firepit for bonfires and barbecues (we also sell firewood), there are hammocks and swings, trees to climb on, a stream to paddle in and an occasional train going by to wave at. We're right by the East Suffolk railway line and so we hope that, like us, you'll see the twice-hourly train as more of an entertainment rather than nuisance.

In addition to the an occasional rabbit hopping around the orchard, muntjac deer peeking from the brambles, cuckoo waking you nice and early, owls hooting at night and bats flittering around at dusk you can enjoy watching daily shenanigans of our three alpacas - Merlin, Prince and Ringo.

We've had great fun developing a glamping site in Woodbridge reflecting our ambition to share this beautiful and unique environment with others.

Neighbourhood highlights

Woodbridge is a charming Suffolk market town with cafes, pubs, independent shops, cinema, swimming pool and plenty of buzz. It's the gateway to the Suffolk coast, to beaches at Aldeburgh and Southwold, the forests of Rendlesham and Tunstall (our favourite), and Sutton Hoo historical site is just across the river. We'd be delighted to tell you about our favourite local places if you'd like help with planning your visit.
