Fancy Camping is where to come for cosy bell tent holidays in the northern New Forest National Park. Located in the picturesque hamlet of Cadnam in the grounds of The Coach and Horses, a popular local pub, this glamping accommodation comes with everything you need to explore this beautiful part of the Hampshire countryside. Each tent is decorated with shabby chic stylings. All units come with a comfy double bed, made up with fresh linen and with duvets and pillows provided; (floor mattresses are available for kids please bring bedding for the kids.) Inside, rugs, tables, chairs, bunting and fairy lights help to create cosy interiors. A firepit (with your first load of logs included for free) is also on hand outside. Shared facilities include hot showers and proper flushing toilets. A fridge and freezer, washing-up sinks and a communal camping kitchen with pots, pans, a kettle etc. are also a short distance away from the tents. Walk out of the camping field and you are in the forest, with access to miles upon miles of splendid car-free footpaths. The Coach and Horses is open all day for meals, drinks and snacks. Special events like quiz nights and live music may also be on the menu (check with staff for more information).

Bell tent (pet friendly)

Liked: We really enjoyed our bank holiday weekend stay, James (owner) met us on arrival and showed us our tent. He showed us bathroom and kitchen, (plenty of hot water) told us of local attractions and offered us electric power banks but we had our own. He was very friendly & welcoming.
Our tent was clean & cosy but did get cold throughout the night. There was a table & chairs outside. Loved walking through the Forest right behind the site. The local pub was lovely, we had a drink there but didn’t eat as we had our own meals.
We would definitely stay again and recommend to family and friends.

Bell tent (pet friendly)

Liked: Just got home after a 2 night stay with my dog.
The whole experience was brilliant. Something quite magical about arriving and your tent is pitched and bed made. Then waking up to the cold summer air wrapped in the warmest duvet is something else.
The site is clean, well maintained and run by James. An absolute gentleman.
Showers are hot and endless.
Cooper the Cockapoo had the shock of his life this morning when he woke to see a field full of deer. He couldn’t help having a little chase before breakfast.
The coach n horses next to the site is staffed by the most welcoming and friendly bunch of people you could hope to meet.
Fancy camping deserves to be fully booked all through the season.
Highly recommended
