The detail

These four safari tents are exclusively for you and have a secret location in England’s lush Rutland County. Hidden in a 20 acre private woodland and with nothing but wild animal friends to greet you, it is a true sanctuary where you can escape and renew. Stroll through the enchanting woodland paths or unwind beneath star-studded vistas.

All four tents are lifted up off the woodland floor and have waterproof canvas roofs and rustic chic interiors. Beautiful handcrafted furniture is sprinkled throughout along with idyllic views that can be watched by candle light.

The lodges have spacious open-plan living areas with a country-style kitchen and dining area. Sit back on the sumptuous leather sofa or relax on the covered deck before watching the captivating sunset and its mesmerising glimmers. A large wood-burning stove is on hand for your meals, along with a single gas hob for those morning cups of tea. Fresh running water can be enjoyed from the vintage farmhouse sink, or from the private en-suite bathrooms that have modern luxury facilities.

These wood-floored tents sleep up to six people (max 4 x adults) and have three charming double bedrooms with a sophisticated finish. A master king-size room is the largest of the three and is joined by a cosy twin room and a cute double cabin.
