Glamping in Bell Tents

Come glamping in Bell Tents! Our Bell Tents are sited just off the sunset side of the camping field so they catch the last of the evening sun, Ash & Willow are 5 metre tents sleeping 4 people and Oak is a 6 metre tent sleeping 6.   Ash & Willow are in  a large grassy clearing separated by a large hedge, they  are private enough for individual use but also  work really well for 2  families to book together,  The Oak Stargazer is in  its own private wooded clearing  and has  360 degrees of transparent panels located around the roof canopy to give you the best view of the sky, with an easy clip-on sun shade curtain.  Inside each tent is a wood burning stove and extremely comfortable  sofa beds which  turn easily into very comfortable beds at the end of the day.

Each tent has an outdoor kitchen for with 2 ring gas hob, sink and all the crockery pots pans etc needed for your stay,  Ash and Willow have a table and chairs on the deck and  Oak has a table with bench seats in the out door kitchen.  Each tent has a fire pit  surrounded by bench seats with tripod , grill and Dutch oven, great for cooking stews,  or even pizzas in!

The bell tents have their own toilet and shower facilities. We are always aware of our green credentials, so we have built a ‘Tree Bog’ situated in an ancient grove of willow trees. There is an outdoor (cold) shower – you can either heat up some water to put in the galvanised shower bucket, all part of the fun, or there’s the shower block up at the car park for the more faint hearted!

The Bell Tents are situated near our Wild Camping field and are a 400M walk from the car park.   Farm map https://dernwoodfarm.co.uk/farm-map/   The site is car free and off grid – no power in the tents. Those with mobility concerns should call first to discuss on 01435 812726.

You need to bring your own bedding and towels. We also suggest you bring a torch and a battery powered light for use inside the tent.  We provide an initial ‘fire pack’ of  1 x 15kg net of logs, 1 net of kindling, 1 pack of fire-lighters and a pack of matches. More of all of these can be bought at our shop. Dogs are welcome but please can they bring their own beds and bowls!

No smoking inside the tents please.
