Amber's Bell Tent Camping at Little Massingham Estate - Norfolk Glamping Site

We hired the whole site for a weekend of celebrating my daughter's 18th birthday, and it was utterly magical. The tents and railway carriages were beautifully appointed and very comfortable. The barn was a wonderful venue for a large formal dinner, with everything we could need, and for dancing afterwards. It was bliss waking up in the middle of the unspoilt Norfolk countryside, and no-one wanted to go to home. Amber, Olly and their team could not have done more to make us feel welcome and looked after. We will definitely be back!

We had the perfect stay at Little Massingham, the barn is beautiful, high ceilings huge windows, a pool table and table tennis which kept us entertained on a rainy day. The bell tents are beautifully done with lots of comforting touches, log burners, warm blankets, a camping stove etc. Conor who greeted us was very friendly and accommodating, and Amber was a brilliant host, responding very quickly and making sure everything was exactly as we needed! The site is perfectly located, surrounded by incredible views and wildlife, great walks, holkam beach was a short drive. Nice and secluded for a private weekend. I cannot recommend this place enough and already want to go back. Thank you!

We stayed for a few nights with our 2 little ones. It was lovely. Connor was a great help and the site is very nice. The shower block appeared new and was nice and clean. The tent was very nice and comfortable. There was a log burner and amenities in the room ready for our arrival. We melted marshmallows over the fire and when we couldn't be bothered to cook after a day at the beach, we ordered a takeaway from the dabbling duck 5 mins drive away... Very nice.... Would definitely stay again...

Just back from a really lovely long weekend at Little Massingham. The tents were clean and comfortable. Pleasantly surprised by the showers and toilets, simple but clean and tidy. Great location, lovely and quiet. Children loved playing in the barn, we now have children keen on pool, ping pong and the piano! We did have dinner put at the dabbling duck, we would definitely recommend!! Absolutely delicious. We are not campers, but this was a great experience. We all enjoyed it (3 adults and 4 children,.across 2 tents) and are talking about booking again!!!

A little piece of Norfolk Nostalgia 12 adults, 8 kids 14 May 2021 The site Divine - private, picturesque, perfectly planned. The tents are beautifully spaced out amongst the trees and bushes. Toilets are a short walk. The site is so private, you only share the space with wildlife for as far as the eye can see. You also have access to an amazing barn that includes a billiards table, table tennis, seating etc - such an amazing feature. Outdoor bbq and pizza oven are slick and well thought out. Showers and toilets are very smart indeed! The Tents The beads are phenomenal (top end hotel standards and best nights sleep Id had for a long time) - so warm and cozy and the in tent log burners make it really toastie really quickly. Amazing touches such as hot water bottles, kettles, pots, pans, bunting, fairy lights, mixed with luxurious throws and feature cushions make these 5 star - beautifully laid out. The Hosts Amber is the Queen of the Glamp - so responsive and professional. Above and beyond helpful and truly invested in her amazing business. Connor the site manager is a true gent. Really helpful and informative. Olly the owner popped over on his horse to make sure we were enjoying the site, which the kids loved as he was on his horse. Location Little Massingham is text book country village - amazing pub (Dabbling Duck) great cafe and coffee shop (Cartshed), fab butchers and farm shop (Lings country foods) all built around 2 duck ponds. The Heath, a short walk offers wild ponys, pigs and sheep. And of course places of stunning natural beauty, such as Brancaster are only 30 min away. Overall Easily summed up, the moment we arrived we asked to book for next year. I was quite reluctant to write this review as I suspect it will become so loved by its guests, repeat business will keep this place off the market for a long time to come. Negatives You are reminded that you are the guests of nature and the birds were there first! On the first night we were all woken by an amazing orchestra of birds at 4:30 - not sure if something spooked them... but it was loud and for city dwellers we were a little unprepared... but the second night wasnt as loud and we all embraced natures natural meditation tape (and used ear plugs) :-) Thank you sooooo much for a outstanding escape from reality. For us, who like nice hotels, this was the Corinthia of camping. Owen
