3 Bedroom Cottage in Hintlesham

Enjoy a luxurious glamping escape in this spacious safari tent set close to the Suffolk/Essex border. Sleeping six guests across three unique bedrooms, this is the perfect base for families and friends hoping to surround themselves with the peace and quiet of nature. Enjoy woodland walks through the grounds or head further afield to explore the magical landscapes of Constable Country (10 miles). The historic market town of Hadleigh (5 miles) has some excellent places to eat, from cute cafes to traditional pubs. The town also hosts a regular market where you can pick up local produce. Other chocolate-box towns and villages nearby include Kersey, Lavenham, and Sudbury (all within 16 miles). For a day at the seaside, head to the coastal towns of Felixstowe (18 miles) or Aldeburgh (30 miles). Keen golfers will be in their element, with the championship course of Hintlesham on your doorstep.

Before stepping into this unique glamping retreat, take a moment to appreciate its safari tent design and the tranquil greenery that surrounds you – setting the scene for an unforgettable rural escape. Cross the covered decking and head inside to be greeted by a rustic open-plan living space that brings the outside in. Combining a well-appointed kitchen with a scenic dining space and lounge, this beautiful room is the ideal place to unwind between your days of adventure together. Sink into the deep leather sofas to rest your weary walking muscles – if it’s chilly out, the roaring burner invites you to gather around and bask in its glow. The handcrafted kitchen boasts everything needed for preparing holiday feasts, which can be enjoyed at the long dining table, out on the patio, or up at the breakfast bar if numbers are low. When it’s time to call it a night, take your pick from three luxurious bedrooms: a master king-size, a king-size cabin bed accessed by ladder steps, and an adult-size bunk room. Serving the bedrooms and completing the home is a chic family bathroom with underfloor heating, a roll-top bath, and a separate shower.


Outside, soak up the scenery from your private decked terrace overlooking the lake. From here, steps lead to a patio area with a picnic bench, a charcoal BBQ and a Scandi-inspired wood-fired hot tub. A fire pit is located just down from the tent on the grass area, giving you a cosy spot slightly set apart for evening gatherings. Beyond your private outdoor space, feel free to explore the shared grounds featuring tranquil woodland and a buzzing wildlife lake. An on-site honesty shop sells essentials, while your arrival and day trips will be made easy thanks to ample off-road parking just 50 metres away from the tent.
