The detail

Escape the rat race and commune with nature at The Apple Bobber, a spacious luxury safari tent set in beautiful surroundings on four acres of natural fields and woodland. Camping doesn’t get any more glam than this with a kitchen garden full of fresh produce, chickens wandering around, and your own private soaking tub, as well as a bit of wild swimming in the pond (if you are brave enough!) You can even organise to book a private session in the sauna in the spa area. Whether you're looking for a romantic retreat, a mini-moon or just a relaxing getaway, it's a perfect stay.

There is no compromising on comfort with a Hypnos cashmere super-king size bed, guaranteed to provide sweet dreams and a restful sleep and an Applestack stove will help to keep your tent extra cosy on those chillier evenings.

The small but perfectly formed kitchen area offers a Nespresso machine, induction hob and fridge freezer where you can rustle up delicious meals, or for the more traditional glampers there is a firepit outside where you can toast marshmallows under the stars or get adventurous and flex your culinary skills over fire. There will be no traipsing to a cold toilet block as you have your own modern bathroom complete with a rainforest shower, heated towel rail and fluffy towels.

Twin sun decks provide the perfect areas to sit with a cup of tea and look out onto your garden. Or why not heat up the wood-fired soaking tub and bathe in style? Your cosy home is positioned by a moat and newly planted orchard so you can watch the dragonflies skimming the water while you relax in the warmth and comfort of your outdoor tub. While away the hours rocking gently in your hammock or chilling out on your own private jetty bobbing on the pond.

There is plenty of exploring to be done on the four acres of grounds and lots of wildlife to watch out for or maybe you’d rather hire a bike and take a gentle ride along the quiet country lanes. You will discover many a quaint inns to rest at and local vineyards where you can try wine tasting. It’s not far to the coast where you can enjoy a lovely day at the seaside. Southwold and Aldeburgh offer a multitude of places to eat and drink or just take a stroll along the beach and wild dunes, watching the tide come in.
