    Tall Trees Glamping is home to four luxurious safari lodges in Somerset. Sleeping up to six people (plus two dogs), the lodges are perfectly positioned in a large meadow with trees, wild flowers and an orchard. Whether you dream of long summer evenings relaxing on your veranda or cosy nights in front of the wood burning stove, these beautiful lodges offer up a memorable holiday in the most glorious of surroundings. Wonderfully located on the edge of the Somerset Levels, these stunning lodges have all the perfect ingredients for a restful holiday. Inside, the open plan living, dining and kitchen area is as charming as it is welcoming. The living room has a stylish wood burner, a well-stocked log basket and a cosy sofa. Settle down in front of the fire and delve into the pile of board games that are ready and waiting. The fully-equipped kitchen is a world away from regular camp cooking. With a mains supplied sink, fridge, hob and oven it’s perfectly set up for the most eager of chefs. And, for those not quite so eager, the thoughtful owners can provide prepared homemade meals. The large dining table comfortably seats six people and is a great place for your morning cuppa - or a serious game of snakes and ladders. The lodge sleeps up to six people in a king bedroom, double cabin room and twin bedroom. With quality mattresses, soft white Egyptian cotton bedding and thick duvets they are all wonderfully cosy. Simply styled with feature lighting and beautiful textiles, the bedrooms are all delightfully relaxing. The stylish bathroom has a shower, flushing toilet, basin, heated towel rail and plenty of hot water. And fluffy white towels and complimentary toiletries all come as standard. Outside, you have a handsome decked veranda complete with comfortable seating and an outdoor light. And in front of your lodge is a cast iron BBQ and picnic bench - perfect for a spot of al fresco dining or late night marshmallow toasting. Onsite, there is a shop that stocks home cooked meals and all the basics. The Somerset levels is a great place for walking, cycling and birdwatching. And the legendary market town of Glastonbury and the pretty city of Wells are both within easy driving distance. For any cider lovers, a visit to Mugley Cider Farm and Somerset Cider Brandy Company is almost compulsory.

  • Pomeroy Treehouse

    • 4
    • 2 nights min stay

    You’ll spy the space aloft amongst the pine trees, with willow branches draped around the circumference like a glistening green fringe. Up the handcrafted staircase, you’ll find a trap door, that you can lower behind you to shut yourself away from the world. The lounge, a deeply calm and inviting space, has floor to ceiling windows, and a wood burner for the chillier nights. With a vast expanse of countryside surrounding you, why not take out the vintage Dutch bikes to explore the area, tiring yourself out ready for an evening of relaxation. Despite having a generously equipped and stylishly furnished kitchen, Pomeroy also sports an outdoor kitchen area, with its own sink, BBQ, pizza oven and even an outdoor fridge – so either make an intimate meal for two in the warm confines of the kitchen or take to the balcony to enjoy food al fresco, with a view of fields towards the vineyard and the cathedral. The deck is coincidentally where you’ll also find the grand bathtub with an air spa system, large enough for two, which you can enjoy as an end of the day treat, staring out on the skyline glistening with stars as it fades from blue to black. The bath could also serve as a welcome rinse after a spell in the Finnish electric sauna on the deck, should you not be tempted to use the double outdoor showers just outside it. Were every meticulously crafted detail of this treehouse not enough, there is one last surprise, a pièce de résistance, hiding away in plain sight. If you follow the winding turn of the spiral staircase inside, you’ll emerge at the roof terrace – an enclosed square of relaxing real estate, draped in tumbling willow leaves, with seating by a gas fire pit, an outdoor tv built into the wall, and even a dumb waiter to bring snacks up from the main deck and back again, as well as a breakfast bar for taking your meals to new heights. Pomeroy isn’t just a mind-blowing treehouse stay, it’s the chance to visit your dreams.

  • Hunky Dory

    • 4
    • 4 nights Min Stay

    The canal that winds through the peaceful countryside just south of Bath is great for an afternoon stroll, but why walk when you can take the boat? When you arrive at Hunky Dory, Clare and Hibah, who renovated the boat themselves over three years of loving labour, will teach you all you need to know about piloting and canal etiquette (no license needed!) so even complete beginners will be set to sail. The essential handover will take a couple of hours, so it’s best to arrive as early as you can, then once you’re comfortable being on the water you’ll be left to your own devices but there's a handy guide to refer to if you need. Rumble down to other moorings, or set up a deck chair on the grass by the towpath and chat with passers-by. There are a few good pubs within cruising distance. Clare and Hibah specially recommend the Boatman’s Breakfast at The Lock Inn, and the Bathampton Mill, closest to your original mooring, for sunshine drinks in the garden.While there’s a joy to chugging down the canal for the day, Hunky Dory Days is a lovely place to be even when you’re moored up. Clever and colourful design in everything from the wallpaper to the Hunky Dory Days mugs make the boat a homely space. The bathroom is small, but the shower is hot and you’ll get the hang of swiveling the loo out of the way in no time! If you stay for more than a few days, the loo might need emptying too, but Clare and Hibah will talk you through that as well. Covers at both ends of the boat mean you can drive or just sit and relax in any weather, while good insulation keeps the inside warm. The kitchen has gas hobs and everything you need for cooking, as well as the all-important kettle, so you can sit out on deck with a cup of tea as the fields slide gently by.
