Wintry Sunsets at Happy Valley Norfolk

Picture cool crisp leaves crunching under foot as they compost back to the Earth.  Clear sunny skies with darker days leaving way to the starriest nights.  Winter is an enchanting time in our Woodland cabins under the blanket of our Forest canopy.

Glamping at Happy Valley allows you to immerse yourself in accommodation and facilities that appeal to those looking to experience a more luxurious and comfort-orientated break that you simply cannot get with traditional camping. We offer an eclectic mix of naturally charming cabins, from romantic Shepherds huts to larger cabins with full kitchen facilities, wood burners and every home comfort you could need.  Toad Hall our sumptuous Tree House comes with underfloor heating to ensure maximum snuggle value and it’s own sunken hot tub overlooking the breath-taking views.

Did you know you can hire the whole site for your specials events? Weddings, Family get togethers, birthday parties, team building, the list goes on.

With glamping, it’s all about gaining enjoyment from a pure, natural and relaxing experience that other holidays just can’t provide!  Glamping is all about allowing yourself to get in touch with nature but without sacrificing that comfort and lack of facilities. Imagine yourself here in our Wood Fired Hot tub on a misty morning…

Just consider such appeals as the locally sourced produce, nature, wildlife, forest bathing and ever-lasting memories that only glamping breaks can give you. There’s never been a better time to book your very own glamping experience!

Why we love glamping here in the Winter? It's romantic and offers an undeniable break from the norm. You can't beat the wonderful sense of escapism experienced when you wake up cosy and warm in a proper bed, rekindle the wood-burner and peep out of a frosty window to reveal a wintery wonderland beyond. Getting out in the countryside and breathing in the fresh, cool winter air is the perfect way to escape day to day life and live adventurously. Going glamping in winter is a gateway into a whole new world of holiday experiences.

We’re now taking bookings for Winter 2019.  Please contact one of our Glamping team to secure your cosy stay in one of our Woodland cabins.

A Taste of Summer

Glamping at Happy Valley

We've been getting a little excited this past week as the temperatures have reached 23 and the holidays have hit our household. Grateful for the longer days and warm sunshine.

Happy Valley is evolving as we add family glamping units. Scott has been busy building some very smart deckings for the bell tents this year. We've invested in a new 6m Bell Tent and added a King size bed & 2 singles. The next Tree Cabin is in progress and the Treehouse build soon to start! 

Our Brand New 6m Queenie Bell is up and raring to go. We thought we'd add another King Size Bed as I know we love a big bed and the occasions when the bambinos creep in means you won't be so tight on room. We also added 2 single beds which can be used alone or pushed together.  Camping Plates, bowls, cups, cutlery are included - BBQ, Washing up bowl & Gas camping stove. All with a Beautiful Woodland Garden to immerse yourselves in.

We've been eager to open up our site to more families in the holidays as it's a great environment to be in with your children. Raising our family at Happy Valley we spend endless hours in the woods. Creating our own mini adventures at the faraway tree and signature oak. Climbing fallen trunks and absorbing nature has definitely improved our lives. The forest is a magical place and with children it really does come alive with magic.

We also rear our own Short Horn cows on the farm so you can go a visit the cows and will often see the sheep on the surrounding fields. There's some fab off road trails to bike down with rolling routes through idyllic woodland.

We rear our own Short Horn Cattle at Happy Valley - here they are enjoying some R&R on the hills. Short Horn are a very docile breed of cows. They produce marbled beef with a great texture. It's nice to know they have a very happy life with little stress. 

i've always found it hard to practice mindfullness and meditate but surrounded by the forest with open views it is starting to get a lot easier.

There's a breakfast bar where you can relax on the old tractor seat stools or you can enjoy your meal outside on the decking surrounded by your woodland garden. 

A pocket sprung mattress sits on the king size bed and has been highly reviewed by all of our guests.
