Nestled on a campsite in the heart of Hertford lies this fabulous glamping pod, perfect for families and couples with their furry friends wishing to get a little closer to nature. Stay warm and toasty with central heating, or relax in the private wood-fired hot tub and enjoy views of the surrounding countryside and the lake just a stone's throw from your doorstep. Fire up the barbecue for dining alfresco on warm summer evenings, and bring a good quality torch with you for getting around at night, as parts of the camping site are unlit. There are plenty of amenities on-site for the family to enjoy, including a farm park where you can meet the alpacas, lambs, pigs and other farm animals. You'll also get a discount at the on-site farm shop, where you can get some great local produce as well as wood, coal and fuel for fires.
Enjoy the quiet oasis of the site, safe in the knowledge that you're only a short drive from the centre of Hertford. You'll have easy access to the local shops and pubs where you can enjoy a pint with the locals and take a trip to some of the nearby landmarks like Hertford Castle. Lace up your hiking boots and head to the Chadwell Way Sculpture Trail, where you can explore gorgeous scenery as you explore the towns and countryside of Hertford, Ware and Great Amwell.
