Glamping Sussex

Glamping in Sussex in beautiful hand built Shepherds huts sited in a sunny glade in the woods or camp in small secluded woodland on our 200 acre family farm.  Wander through the orchards to the National Trust’s Bodiam castle and the local pub, take a ferry ride down the river, hop on a steam train, or just relax in front of the camp fire and enjoy the beautiful countryside.

The Huts are hand built by Nick here on the farm in the tiny village of Bodiam in East Sussex, our huts are based on the idea of an old Shepherd’s hut. What makes them unique in today’s market is that (in true agricultural fashion) they are built using reclaimed, recycled and locally sourced materials wherever possible. The aim of this is to make them of the lowest possible environmental impact.

THE HUTS
glamping-sussex-original-huts-shepherds-huts-S

Currently there are two Hut sites on the farm, each site is home to five Huts, two of which offer living accommodation for up to 4 people, two further living huts are 5 berth. The 5th hut is the wash hut. The huts are fully equipped and a linen service is provided. Each hut has outside dining furniture and its own fire pit for cooking (logs and cooking equipment provided). A gas hob is fitted for convenience, as well as a sink with cold running water. Hampers of fine local produce can be arranged for your arrival. These are bespoke and need discussing fairly well in advance.

The hut is quickly and easily changed between its day and night functions. The day bed at one end easily converts to become bunk beds, and the dining table at the other end folds down to make a double bed.

To keep the environmental impact of the accommodation to a minimum the huts are not connected to a mains electric supply. Electric lighting is provided by means of a solar panel on the roof offering an easy and safe means of lighting.

The huts are fully equipped with

  • Wood burning stoves, so they are really warm and cosy
  • Cooking equipment
  • Tumblers, wine glasses and mugs, tumblers, tea and coffee pots
  • Milk jug
  • Cutlery and enamelware crockery
  • Sauce pan, milk pan, frying pan
  • Cast iron cooking equipment specifically designed for cooking on the open fire
