🏕️ Our First Self-Operated Campsite
In Summer 2024, we launched the Strawberry Lane Tree Tent, our first directly operated campsite. You'll find this secluded haven on Little Thakeham Farm, nestled in the heart of the lush West Sussex woodlands. This flagship site is more than a destination; it’s a living, breathing example of what’s possible when you combine thoughtful design with stunning landscapes.
Guests can experience our iconic structures in a space reserved just for themselves. Sleep and birdwatch from the Tree Tent, take a dip in the Hot Tank, and freshen up in the Fuselage Link. The site is also kitted out with a pizza oven, kitchen and dining space, all for your private use, and loads of other little touches. This unique site blends luxury, sustainability, and adventure, to provide you with a wild and unforgettable stay.
🛠️ Our New Creations
In 2024, we introduced a number of sustainable, adventure-forward additions to the Tree Tents range, all designed to enhance guest experiences while prioritizing sustainability and functionality. Here’s what’s new:
- Hot Tank: A wood-fired hot tub that’s perfect for cozy nights under the stars.
- Solar Station: Simple to use, portable energy, to power any outdoor space.
- Wash Pods: Versatile off-grid shower and toilet facilities for added guest convenience.
- Camping Kit Essentials: Eco-friendly gear to elevate your camping experience.
