Use this luxury safari tent as a base to explore the wonderful landscape of the national park, then return to soak tired limbs in the hot tub.

Embrace nature in this spectacular safari tent, surrounded by the tranquil scenery of Dartmoor National Park. Sleeping four guests, the versatile tent suits couples, small families, and groups of friends. The walking and cycling routes in the area are endless, and you’ll also be just 10 miles from the South West Coast Path. Spend your days exploring Dartmoor’s rugged landscape, or head south for a traditional day at the seaside at Bigbury-on-Sea or Salcombe. In the evenings, share stories and delicious food around the firepit.

The canvas safari tent has a wooden frame and a pitched roof, and its open-plan living space is bright and airy. The interiors carefully combine rustic chic with home comforts to create the ultimate rural retreat. A comfortable corner sofa is nestled next to a wood burner, and there are also charging points and power sockets for your gadgets. The compact kitchen is perfect for rustling up light snacks, which you can enjoy together on the terrace. Sliding doors lead to two bedrooms – a double and a bunk bedroom – and there is also a handy shower room. Outside, a tranquil haven awaits. As well as the terrace, there is also a wood-fired hot tub to sink into at the end of the day, and a firepit for toasting marshmallows under the stars.

Nearby Buckfastleigh (11 miles) has a lot to offer. As well as being a vibrant market town, Buckfastleigh is also home to several excellent visitor attractions. Soak up the serene beauty of Buckfast Abbey with its breathtaking gardens and impressive church, or chug through the countryside on the steam trains of the South Devon Railway, which run from the town to Totnes. There are some fantastic family attractions within 16 miles of the tent, including Woodlands Family Theme Park and Pennywell Farm.

We loved our holiday in the safari tent. It's an extraordinary accomodation with lots of comfort. The children appreciatet the heating under the bed linen and the hot tub was great. When it drizzled or rained we had to take the table inside, because it rained under the canopy. We liked the sound of the animals such as the sheep, the peacock, the roRead moreoster, the cows and birds. It was lovely to have the sheep and the peacock around the campsite. It was enough wood available for heating and tub. Hide

We had the most wonderful stay. Our little one loved Betsy the Pig and speeding around on his bike in the field. The hot tub was lovely and the accommodation was fantastic. We will be back :)

Absolutely fantastic!!! Had a truly magical weekend staying inside this gorgeous safari cabin. The most beautiful setting surrounded by fields and woodlands. We loved seeing the Guinea fowl and peacock that live there. Hosts were really friendly, super helpful and very kind with supplying and bringing over extra wood so we could take full advantageRead more of the fire pit and hot tub. The cabin is super cosy, clean and had everything we needed! The beds were also super comfy! Highly recommend! Hide

Had a lovely weekend glamping on the farm with kids and dogs. Great scenery and location to visit good spots in Devon and Dartmoor is right on the doorstep. The hot tub was a challenge to get up to temperature but I think that was more my technique. Be prepared to wake early to the sound of peacock, cows, sheep and birds! Only difficulty was that wRead moree have small dogs who were able to squeeze out with the door shut so be mindful. Would definitely recommend!! Hide
