The detail

Set just above the beach on the beautiful private Cadland Estate in The New Forest, The Pop-Up Hotel is offering a unique experience in the summer of 2021. Enjoy a luxurious tented room along with the services of a boutique hotel. As well as the spectacular sea view, you’ll have a private beach, restaurant, full-service bar and a beach cabana all at your disposal.

There are six accommodation options available, all suitable for at least four guests. The beautiful bell tents come in various sizes and with different amenities. If you go for the Classic Room, you’ll enjoy a traditional bell tent experience with some added luxuries. Air beds complete with crisp linen and bedside tables make this a clear upgrade from any camping trip. Upgrade even further to the Deluxe room and you’ll get proper bed frames with comfy memory foam mattresses. If you’re bringing a few friends along, the Emperor Bell Tent has room for up to five guests.

If you’re looking for even more luxury, you might want to choose the Safari Suite or the Raj Tenthouse Suite. The Safari Suite is particularly romantic and inspired by the tents used on safari. With a covered porch, vintage furnishings, carpeted floor and ambient lighting, you get all the comfort of a hotel room with all the romance of glamping. There’s also an ensuite bathroom with a shower, hot water and a flushing toilet. The Raj Tenthouse Suite is bigger still, with up to four fully-furnished bedrooms with full-sized beds, a furnished living and dining area and a bathroom.

There’s also the option of going for one of the two Beach Huts, ‘Gullwing’ and ‘Little Tern’. These gorgeous huts are built from Structural Insulated Panels making them warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Fire up the log burner for some extra cosiness or open up the front bifold doors and step straight out onto the beach. The Beach Huts are suitable for up to five guests and feature a kitchen, bathroom and living area.

Being so close to the beach means that there’s a whole range of activities to try. There are lots of watersports are on offer, from kayaking and sailing to stand-up paddleboarding. The Pop-Up Hotel has teamed up with local providers so that experts will be on hand to help out, whatever your experience level. There are many more activities to try if you venture a little further into The New Forest and you can explore the national park on foot, by bike or even on horseback.
