Spacious hotel-style bell tents sleeping up to five in Barnby Moor
A 20-minute drive to Yorkshire Wildlife Park and Clumber Park
Private bathroom and hot tub plus communal kitchen and pizza oven

Wow, anyone who pitches up at Dukeries Retreat is in for a treat. This is glamping with real style, with excellent facilities and plenty to do nearby. The site is set on seven acres on the edge of Barnby Moor village in north Nottinghamshire, in a spot that's got fabulous views of the countryside but is just a five-minute walk from a luxury spa, a gastropub and an Indian restaurant. Guests from each bell tent have access to a private well-finished toilet and shower a short walk away. Tents sleep up to five with flexible bed layouts for families or friends, and each is kitted out with bed linen and a hotel-style finish (think towels, bedside tables, lamps and so on – it’s all there, ready and waiting for you). There’s an electricity supply with plugs for charging devices, plus a kettle and an electric heater to keep everyone cosy too. Outside each tent is a private hot tub (surely the top spot for sunset…) along with a garden bar, seating, a hammock and a firepit, which comes with a griddle for alfresco dining. There’s no excuse for not cooking as all utensils are included too, and camping gas stoves are available to hire on site. Everything else you need is provided in the communal kitchen (which has a fridge/freezer and microwave), and out in the field there’s a communal-use pizza oven and field shelter too, with a few outdoor games provided. Chances are you’ll never get to that spa, pub or restaurant after all…

May 2026 Peter t. 1 review

Yurt (superior, hot tub)

Liked Spacious pitches with plenty of privacy, great walking trails right from the site and a lovely welcome from the owners.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Peter, thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review for us, we really appreciate it as a small family business. We were a little concerned to see that under WiFi you answered 'None Given'. All guests should receive a Welcome Pack with this information included. If you didn't receive it, I need to investigate further, as we aim to make our guests stay as smooth & easy as possible. Again, thank you for the lovely review!

Brilliant site, we absolutely loved it…
