  • Glamping site at a seven-acre farm 10 minutes' drive from Aylsham
  • A 10 minute-drive to the Bure Valley Railway; 25 minutes to the coast
  • Bell tents with beds, firepit and field kitchen provided
Settle down for a splendid stay at Peony and Bells at Top Farm, where comfy bell tents have been set up at a farm surrounded by the woodland of the Norfolk countryside, and with far-reaching rural views. This lovely little glampsite is in a rural spot just outside the village of Marsham, 10 minutes' drive from Aylsham and 20 minutes from the Norfolk coast. It’s been owned by generations of the same family and you can see why they love the place so much: seven acres of well-drained, flat land and views of the Norfolk countryside make for happy times for residents and guests alike. If you've still got some energy left after wandering around the grounds, head out into the woodlands of Marsham Heath, right next to the site. These bell tents make a great option if you'd like to spend the night under canvas but don't have all your own kit – they're set up on wooden platforms to make things solid underfoot, and each one has beds made up, comfy chairs to sit in, pretty fairy lights and colourful rugs. Outside, each one has a picnic table for your alfresco drinks and meals, a covered field kitchen and a firepit where you can stoke the flames while the sun sets. Toilets and showers are in a shared facility close to the tents.
