Tucked away in the rolling countryside near Ottery St Mary, this luxurious safari tent offers a truly peaceful break for families and couples in search of a slower pace of life. Set amidst open farmland and leafy Devon lanes, in a spacious seven-acre meadow with only five other glamping tents in it, allowing lots of privacy and space for children to play, it’s a haven for nature lovers and outdoor adventurers alike. Spend your days exploring the Jurassic Coast at Sidmouth (7 miles) with its sweeping cliffs and sandy coves, or take a gentle stroll along the river in Ottery St Mary (2 miles). The seaside charm of Budleigh Salterton (10 miles) and the golden sands of Exmouth (11 miles) are both within easy reach, while Dartmoor National Park (18 miles) invites you to discover its wild landscapes and endless walking routes.
Inside, the tent feels wonderfully homely, blending rustic style with thoughtful comfort. The open-plan living space is perfect for gathering together, featuring a well-equipped kitchen, dining table, and cosy seating area centred around the wood-burning stove. Subtle lighting and warm tones create a relaxing retreat to come back to after days of exploring. Drift off to sleep in one of two comfortable bedrooms – a double and a twin – each dressed in fresh linens and soft furnishings to ensure a restful night. There’s also a spacious shower room and a private compost loo conveniently positioned just behind the tent.
Outside, unwind on the generous decking with a morning coffee while listening to the sounds of nature all around. As the sun sets, light the BBQ or gather by the campfire for evenings filled with laughter and toasted marshmallows. End the night with a soak in your private wood-fired hot tub, gazing up at a canopy of stars. Adjacent to the glamping field is a centuries-old three-acre oak and bluebell woodland, which is private to the farm, where children can dam streams, make dens and play hide-and-seek, it's also perfect for dog walking. With peaceful surroundings, a wealth of scenic walks nearby and every creature comfort thought of, this is glamping at its most restorative. There is private parking for 2 cars available.
