Norfolk Country Retreats are all about top-notch glamping on privately owned Norfolk woodland. These exclusive, pre-erected bell tents are delightfully decorated in boho style, and guests can immerse themselves in the countryside while still enjoying the luxury of a proper bed and furnishings. Your glamping adventure starts as you park the car in the designated field. From there, it’s a matter of collecting water containers and wheeling your stuff by trolley along the woodland path to your tent. What can you expect? For starters, an outdoor kitchen, sheltered under a rail sail. A private picnic area and firepit to keep you warm during chillier summer evenings, and an eco-loo and basic shower facilities, hidden discreetly among trees next to your tent. Inside, there’s room for up to four adults to sleep, with a proper double bed and two futons. A chest of drawers deals with your gear, and bits and pieces to spark your interest include bird-spotting books, juggling balls and board games. This is an off-grid, eco-friendly place to come and stay, one where you can reconnect with nature and recharge. Binoculars are on hand so you can spot buzzards and deer from your pitch, and because everything’s set up for you, you can get straight into that chilled holiday vibe. Relax with a good book, chat with fellow glampers around the firepit, or simply tune in to the birdsong in the background. A 10-minute walk from the camping field is the cute village of Hingham, with a fantastic pub, two cafés and all the convenience stores you need to stock up on supplies.
