Bedouin Bell Tent

Hidden in a magical woodland clearing near Newbury on the Hampshire–Berkshire border, our off-grid bell tents offer a unique escape for couples, families, dogs and groups.



Each huge six-meter bell tent sleeps 2 adults in a double bed, plus up to 4 children on comfy pull-out Z beds. Furnished in a relaxed Bedouin style with rugs, cushions and a cozy log burner, the tent is light and spacious, with a private deck and firepit, and its own bathroom with hot shower and flushing toilet right next door.



You'll have everything you need for a comfortable stay: all bedding and towels, a fully equipped cooking station with gas stove and charcoal BBQ, fridge freezer access, crockery and cutlery (including plastic sets for kids), washing-up gear, and even tea, coffee and sugar. The site is off-grid, but fairy lights and lanterns keep things magical – and we'll happily charge your phone if needed.



Guests are free to roam our 10-acre private woodland with hidden paths, wood sculptures, a tire swing, and space for den-building. Expect visits from our resident ducks, chickens, geese, peacocks, dogs, and curious cats – plus local wildlife like deer and foxes.



There are three great pubs within walking distance – The Rampant Cat, The Highclere Red House, and The Furze Bush – and the village of Woolton Hill has a shop, post office and monthly market. Nearby, explore Highclere Castle (aka Downton Abbey), 4 Kingdoms Adventure Park, local nature reserves, Newbury Racecourse, canal boats and scenic walking trails.



We've kept the glamping vibe real – it's all about fresh air, campfires and connection – but without sacrificing the comforts that make it special. And for groups, we have five tents on site – just ask about our group discounts.



Please note:

We don't supply wood, charcoal or tealights, so bring your own. The site is off-grid and animals roam freely – if that's not your thing, this may not be your spot!

Bedouin Bell Tent offers its guests barbecue grills and a garden. The front desk is open around the clock.

This Newbury chalet is smoke free.
