The Bushel is a safari tent in a woodland clearing, sleeping four: a superking bed plus two singles. At around 350 sq ft it's the larger of our two safari tents, with an open-plan layout and a wood-fired hot tub sized for four to six.

Who it suits
A family of four, or four friends who don't mind an open-plan layout. The two single beds make it a natural fit for children. If you want two proper bedrooms and two bathrooms at the same capacity, The Stables is the alternative.
The name
We both fell in love with glamping in Suffolk in our early years together, and the memory of those holidays is part of what drew us here.
The lodge names hark back to the days when the woodland and grounds were part of a large apple farm — a bushel being the measure the apples were picked into.
