Bell Tent Glamping at Marwell Resort

Loved our single night stay here. The owners are lovely and the whole setup here has such a home feeling. I can’t wait to return for a much longer stay.

Wish that I could have stayed longer!

Very family friendly site, with really clean shower and toilet block. Great play area for kids and good to have a restaurant and bar on site.
Location also excellent for day trips to Marwell zoo.
Fantastic activities on site, but they are expensive which is a shame.

Bell tent was quite smelly and had mildew on the inside walls of the tent. I know it has been a damp summer, but not sure how well the tent had been getting aired.
The Kitchen tent, had basic equipment, but didn't have veg pealers, or small sharp knives, or any cafetieres - not a complaint, but useful to know in advance.
Fellow campers were not great at cleaning up after themselves, so cooker stove was dirty, dirty spoons had been used for the sugar and lids left off tea jar. Been glamping and camping before and first time I have encountered this.

Loved the facilties available and all staff were so friendly.
Food at the site was great (a bit expensive)

I would not call the bell tents and area as "glamping" Toilets and showers are shared with all campers (not just bell tent area) same with the toilets.
No mirrors in the glampsite or hairdryers
No sink available other than two fields away
No spoons, had to use forks for tea and coffee.
Just mattresses on the floor in the tent (have to bring your own quilts and pillows)

Ease of turning up and tent up and ready

Nothing to dislike

Fantastic campsite with great facilities for young children. It was our first glamping experience with our 3 and 5 year old. They loved it. The bell tent was very comfortable and spacious. The campsite manager was very friendly and my kids enjoyed playing her son. Campsite has great facilities such as soft play, mini golf, playground bar and cafe. Also marwell zoo is only 5 mins away which a great day out.

Lovely site with a good bar/restaurant and a range of activities.

Shower/toilet area needed cleaning more regularly. The bbq was unclean.
More activities for under 8s.
The kitchen/communal area needed some maintenance. Also if the site was full it would not be big enough to cater for all.

Really cute teepee tent with comfortable beds. Campsite has lots to do such as bar, entertainment, parks, crazy golf ect. Such a family friendly vibe! Shower rooms and toilets are clean. I loved the big gazebo area with seating and fridges. Everything there to cook with plus tea and coffee.

Wish we had known prior to our stay that we could book activities as we missed out on these.
Would have also been great to know that everything needing for cooking and eating with are all on site if staying in teepee’s. We ended up filling the car with all our camping kit which we didn’t need.

we stayed in the bell tents, really enjoyed our trip. Facilities were clean and functional, tents were well kept, clean and ready for us upon arrival, owners were welcoming and even had tea, coffee kettle, fridge etc which in 30 degree heat was amazing! Kids had a fantastic time and extremely dog friendly. Would definitely recommend
