With 2 unique sites to choose from, you can tailor your experience to suit your group perfectly: Glamping Meadow sleeps 28 in 10 bell tents Wilderness sleeps 20 in 10 bell tents Campbeds available for extra guests For larger groups we work with an external supplier who can provide tents to extend either village (we have slept 120 guests on site for corporate events in conjunction with the wedding and events business). All the bell tents are fully furnished, with real beds, soft linens and cosy throws. The Glamping Meadow, which has the feeling of a small village, has the added luxury of electricity - so lighting, heating, and charging points are all at your fingertips. Wilderness Glamping, on the other hand, has lantern lighting for a more off-grid experience, with a peaceful, back-to-nature atmosphere. Both sites are thoughtfully equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Enjoy well equipped kitchens, spacious dining areas under a stunning Star Canopy, and clean, purpose-built bathroom cabins with flushing toilets and powerful hot showers - no camping compromises here. Outside, festoon lighting creates a warm evening glow, while fire bowls, barbecue grills and picnic seating make it easy to relax, dine, and connect with your friends and family. Wild swimming on our private lake, picnic on the bank under the willow tree. For something extra special, the charming Wool Shed shepherd’s hut offers a private retreat with a double bed, kitchenette, and en suite, ideal for a couple or as a private retreat for a newly married couple. There are many extra facilities on site, too, to make your wedding celebrations magical - please ask for more details. There are lots of pretty local villages to explore during your stay, or head to the coast for a beach day at Whitstable and a walk along the coastal path. Canterbury is a special place too, a medieval walled city with a cathedral, cobbled streets and timber framed houses. ## Facilities - **Dog Friendly:** Well behaved dogs are welcome. - **Dining Room:** Everyone can eat together on picnic benches or under The Star Canopy at each site. - **Kitchen:** Wendy House fully equipped kitchen at each site.
