    Sauna was amazing, the yurts were really well furnished and being able to have a fire/BBQ by the yurts was great. We were made to feel really welcome, it's obvious they really care about what they're doing :)

Property information

Welcome to our luxury off -grid glamping retreat in the heart of Knockholt, in the Kent countryside only 35 minutes from central London. Experience a truly secluded escape from the hustle and bustle of daily urban life here at the retreat where we are fully sustainable with a wood fired sauna and a stretched 12m x 10m tent. Explore a natural hideaway and beautiful country walks with friends and family, while in the evening relaxing under the stars beside a magical, roaring firepit. Glampers can also capture faraway views of the London skyline from parts of the land as well as rolling hills and valleys on The Knockholt Retreat, giving that extra touch of magic. Enjoy the comfort of our beautiful, spacious, well-equipped bell tents in a farmland oasis. Our tents are decorated with luxury and convenience items mind. Everything is at your fingertips with that touch of comfort. There’s pillows, warm cosy throws and lots of attention to detail. We also have a communal stretched tent for if the weather is bad to still be able to partake in activities such as Yoga, fitness training, wellbeing sessions or just to chill!! We also have a beautiful wood fired Naudic thermowood sauna for guests to enjoy!! Don’t worry about things like cups, plates, glassware and cutlery - we’ll provide all of that. Just pour yourself a drink and unwind in nature! The tents are 6 metres in floor space so there’s lots of room for lounge around inside, if you feel like taking cover from nature! Our tents are perfect for a couples night away, a family retreat or a planned celebration such a birthday or hen weekend. Just let us know what you’re looking for and we’ll accomodate it as best as we can!

Neighbourhood information

Getting out for a walk might involve driving to a local favourite – perhaps Lullingstone Country Park or Otford, at the centre of several trails (both 15 minutes’ drive) – or it might just be a case of heading out onto a local footpath to one of the nearby pubs (there are a couple within walking distance). Perhaps you like a theme for your rural rambles – in which case, maybe head to Chartwell (20 minutes) to explore the estate that Winston Churchill once called home, or learn about the life of Charles Darwin at Down House (10 minutes). The Biggin Hill Memorial Museum (15 minutes) gives guests an insight into the area’s wartime role, while both Squerryes Winery (15 minutes) and The Mount Vineyard (20 minutes) will keep you up to date with what’s going on in the Kentish wine world. This area has several golf courses for those who’d like to take their clubs on tour; green-fingered types may prefer outings to Riverhill Himalayan Gardens or National Trust - Emmetts Garden (both 20 minutes).
