  • Luxury log cabins on an Essex farm 10 mins’ drive from Saffron Walden
  • Cambridge 40 minutes’ drive; Audley End Miniature Train 15 minutes
  • Private hot tubs and decking; laundry cabin; lake views and livestock
Family run and family friendly, Wimbish Hall Cabins is a swish glamping site based on a working arable farm in the Essex village of Wimbish, surrounded by fields of grazing horses and with a couple of friendly dogs about the place too. On site all is peaceful and calm, while the shops, pubs and restaurants of pretty medieval Saffron Walden are 10 minutes’ drive – and another world – away. Sleeping up to six, the contemporary log cabins are heated and insulated to keep everyone cosy no matter what the weather is doing. Proper beds come with all linen supplied, kitchenettes have all mod cons, and the airy interiors have ample space for dining tables and sofa beds. Each cabin has private decking with seating, and looks out over a two-acre lake, so in contemplative moments you can fire up your exclusive-use woodburning hot tub and have a soak while taking in the views – on clear days you can catch spectacular sunsets too. All guests have access to a laundry cabin with washing machines and tumble dryers; please bring your own laundry detergents (and don’t hog the machines). If you prefer to dry your gear alfresco, washing lines and pegs are provided at the cabins.

Gabriele B.

Fox 2 bedroom cabin (six person, no pets)

Liked I really enjoyed my stay – everything was clean, cozy, and just as expected. The only thing I didn’t like is that you pay for a “full night,” but in reality, it’s only 19 hours. Check-in is in the afternoon, and check-out at 10am feels way too early. Would be great to have a later check-out or a full 24-hour stay, especially for the price.

Squirrel 1 bedroom camping pod (four person, no pets)

Liked Absolutely lovely place, loved the privacy and the space to play games! The hot tub was lovely and the bed was extremely comfy, didn’t want to get up! The kitchen and bathroom had everything we needed and the robes and slippers were the perfect additional touch.

Disliked The only downside was we kept the doors open when cooking to stop the fire alarm going off and ended up with about 10 flies we couldn’t get out. Potentially a fly net or beads on the doors so the door can stay open and stop so many flies coming in.

Gail S.

Fox 2 bedroom cabin (six person, no pets)

Liked Having 3 children ranging from 4-14 it’s often hard to find something they all enjoy but we found it at Wimbish! Treasure hunts around the farm, our own garden full of games, hot tub with stunning views. Every little detail has been thought about and everything you could need is available. As soon as we left all 3 kids asked when we could go back! We can’t wait to join you again.

Liked The facilities were fantastic everything you needed for a great stay was available. The fire making for the hot tube and the log fire was so much fun and the private outside space was so good to enjoy your own time.
The beds were super comfortable and the shower was lovely and warm.

Local attractions

Have a potter around pretty Saffron Walden (10 minutes’ drive), with its medieval cottages and brightly painted half-timbered Tudor houses, unusual indie shops and Victorian gardens for when you need a breather. There’s more history in Cambridge (40 minutes), with its ancient soft-stone university colleges, punting on the River Cam and arty attractions – maybe make time to visit the Fitzwilliam Museum and Kettle’s Yard. On holiday with the kids? Check out the sea lion displays, big cats and chimps at Colchester Zoo, or encounter life-size animatronic dinosaurs at Paradise Wildlife Park (both 55 minutes). Combine family strolls in Capability Brown-designed gardens with a tour of the Victorian-era kitchens and dairy at Audley End House and Gardens (40 minutes), and then treat well-behaved youngsters to a ride on Audley End Miniature Train (15 minutes). Head off any groans if you hit a rainy day by making for the trampolines at Jump Street Chelmsford (45 minutes), or take a couple of turns around the rink at Cambridge Ice Arena (40 minutes).
