Tent holiday rentals in New Forest District

We loved every minute - great location and gorgeous views - spacious and comfy. Added bonus with the camp fire pit and own seating. Highly recommend for family’s , friends or couples! The girls and I had a great time so thank you! Host was highly accommodating :D

The bell tents were lovely, very spacious with 5 beds inside and lots of lovely touches like tea lights and useful camping things you’d never think to bring. Thanks Nicky and the team for a lovely stay, highly recommended!

The quality of the accommodation is excellent and of a high standard, with the attention to detail plainly evident. We found all the essentials were supplied, tea, coffee, toiletries etc and a lovely touch. We are a family of six and found the quality of the beds, bedding, shower, towels, kitchen amenities, furnishings superb. The accommodation was roomy and comfortable even when it was chilly outside, with lots of heating options including a log burner to keep warm. Jono was on hand to check us in and give advice on local attractions. Thank you. This is an absolute gem and we had a wonderful stay. We hope to see you again. Jason & Denise

Our whole group had a fantastic weekend away at this beautiful spot. The rain didn't dampen our spirits as the facilities were perfect. The gorgeous yurt made a wonderful communal space & the firepit provided a magical outside spot. The tents were very comfortable & had everything we needed. We would highly recommend this private getaway & could not fault it. 10 out of 10!!

Beautiful bell tent, well equipped kitchen and the kids play tipi was great! Pub a few minutes walk away was also lovely and great food! Perfect location for the beautiful Jurassic coast. Thanks for a lovely stay, Lauren, Alex and Rosie x

If you want remote, peace, nature, the real safari feel, and from your glamping tent the most beautiful view, go and stay here

We had a great time here. The location was picturesque and there was plenty to do on our week long stay. The tent was ideal and surprised us with how roomy it was. Check in was easy as in they text to let you know it’s ready and you just turn up at your tent. Each tent has a BBQ kettle, fire pit, two deckchairs and a large beanbag so lounging outside is to be encouraged. The views are great and the animals on site are friendly enough. The only gripe we have (completely not anything the venue can solve) is the Earwigs! They get absolutely everywhere! If you’re going to stay here then be prepared and maybe bring some airtight containers (even then they’d find a way in!). The play barn area and farm activities are spot on and there’s a lot to do to keep you entertained and although you have to pay, if you’re staying on site then it’s pay once and use as many times as you like after. We ate at The Cow twice whilst we were here and the food was great, service was spot on and for a reasonable price as well. We had a great time here and we’ll definitely be making a return visit, albeit we’ll probably try a lodge next time round. Thanks for having us!

Lovely location. Outside space was perfect for the kids. Plenty of space for outdoor activities. Nothing like we’ve stayed in before, kids loved it. Nice and quiet. The pigs in the field next to the tent came right over for belly rubs! Nice and clean inside and has everything you need. Would definitely return. 10/10

My friends and I had a great stay at Driftaway. We hired both the yurt and safari tent so that we had the whole site to ourselves and were able to pitch up another tent to accommodate three families with young children and a dog altogether. The tents and shower blocks are well equipped with cooking equipment and games. The surroundings are beautiful with a woodland behind which has deer, foxes, badgers and rabbits. The hosts were really friendly and responsive when I let them know the loo flush in one of the toilets wasn't working well. They were very accommodating when we had other friends visit for BBQs as well. Overall we really enjoyed our stay & would definately go back!

Exactly what me and my family was looking for. Had lots of fun and really enjoyed staying here. Thank you for having us and I’m sure we will be back again 😊

A really superb stay, the best camping setup that I’ve ever had. The facilities were brilliant, the woods were great, secluded but easy to get to, and there are really good local villages with a range of pubs. We hired the electric bikes too, which were awesome. We’re already planning to go back.

We stayed for 6 nights in May half term in one of the Safari tents for our first glamping holiday (we had done camping before we had kids), it is idyllic. We are a family with 2 young children (5 and 18 months) in addition my 79 year old father came with us as well as our dog. There was plenty of room for us all in the tent and the facilities were perfect, everything was immaculately presented when we arrived and we had everything we needed. We were out doing something everyday so only used the accommodation during the morning and evening, our only issue was that we couldn't spend a little more time enjoying it! We got lucky with the weather as it only rained on 1 day and that day we were out on Brownsea Island which had good weather, so although it was wet when we returned to the campsite it didn't affect us all that much. The only issue was that since it had been raining during the day and again overnight, that night was noticeably colder than the other nights so we had to start the fire in the wood burner earlier, but we used 2 slow burning bricks in there as per each night and it wasn't really an issue. All instructions and information was clearly laid out, living on a farm is great for the children to enjoy and the honesty shop works really well to allow you to get the basics that you need when you need them. We opted to have some of the homemade pizzas on the first night for convenience, which you need to preorder by 4pm the day before and I would definitely recommend trying these. The staff were incredibly helpful pre, during and post arrival as I enquired if they knew of any local dog boarders since we wanted to spend 2 days doing activities we could not do with our dog. They provided 2 recommendations the one we picked was perfect and allowed us to enjoy our 2 days without worrying about how our dog was. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending the Safari tents at Gambledown Farm as a fantastic glamping experience for anyone who wants a great staycation with a bit of rustic charm and fantastic access to the New Forest and surrounding attractions.

The tents were awesome and provided loads of room for the 4 of us. A very short walk to the shower (piping hot) and toilet. Would thoroughly recommend.

Zoe's bell tent was beautiful ly set up with everything we needed for a great camp weekend. The tent was spacious, clean and had everything we needed. The fire pit and private view was fantastic and the kitchen that was converted for a horse cart made it perfect for an camp weekend we all went had to do was arrive.

An amazing stay for Easter. Perfect waking up to the lambs and chickens Easter morning which made our daughters day. she is only 3 and we couldn't recommend a more perfect place to stay with young children. Colin and Jo are friendly hosts who have thought of everything you need and then some! the standard is extremely high making it an easy weekend glamping, giving you more time to truly relax. everything is private and enclosed ensuring a unique and intimate family experience. we loved it and will definitely be back again, highly recommended, thankyou. Amber and Patrik

Genuinely amazed by this place. Everything has been so thoughtfully placed and provided, meeting the team too makes me excited to come back, you could really spent a few days here just taking it all in and using all the facilities. Such genuinely welcoming people and a place. Will come again.

We loved the accommodation, it was a really great location and very comfortable. Joey was super helpful and really accommodating. We loved the drink left behind the bar at the local pub courtesy of Joey.

Stopped in for a night to do some cycling in the area. Really nice spot with lovely facilities. The accommodation was excellent and a tranquil site.

We had a fabulous stay at Georgia’s Pheasant Bell Tent. We wanted to glamp for our daughter’s first birthday and it was the perfect stay and we loved every moment. We already want to book a return trip!

Booked both safari tents for our family and we had a fabulous stay 10/10 for all aspects great first experience of glamping.
