Set high above the Test Valley with far-reaching countryside views, our luxury safari tents at Gambledown Farm offer the perfect blend of comfort, nature and authentic farm life. Ideal for families and friends, these beautifully appointed tents invite you to slow down, breathe in the fresh Hampshire air and enjoy a truly memorable glamping escape.
Each tent sleeps up to six guests across two bedrooms & a lounge / bedroom. A king-size master bedroom, a twin room and a cosy double cupboard bed tucked neatly into the wall – perfect for children, with plenty of storage beneath. Travel cots are available to hire for infants. A modern internal En-suite bathroom includes a hot-water shower, flushing WC and basin, so you can enjoy the outdoors without sacrificing comfort.
The tents open into a spacious open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, warmed by a wood-burning stove for cosy evenings throughout the year. A comfortable sofa provides a welcoming place to relax, while the dining table seats six guests, with high-chairs available to hire for younger children.
The well-equipped kitchen includes a gas hob, hot and cold running water, sink, kettle, cafetière, pots, pans, crockery, cutlery and even children’s cutlery. Food is kept fresh using a cool box with ice blocks. Outside, each tent has its own Weber barbecue, ideal for relaxed outdoor cooking. Guests can add Gambledown Farm steaks, burgers, sausages or bacon as a BBQ or breakfast hamper, or purchase them directly from the on-site farm shop.
Step outside onto your private deck with Adirondack chairs, perfectly positioned to take in the scenic views. A fire pit with rustic tree-stump seating sits nearby, ideal for huddling together in the evenings and toasting marshmallows under the stars.
Gambledown Farm has been family-run for over 50 years and is a working regenerative mixed farm, home to pedigree Beef Shorthorn cattle, sheep, pigs, chickens, arable crops and areas of ancient woodland. Guests are warmly invited to experience the rhythms of country life, from meeting the animals to enjoying the peace of wide-open spaces.
In spring, children are especially welcome to help bottle-feed orphaned lambs adopted from a neighbouring farm – a much-loved highlight for many families. Glamping guests can also hire their own chicken coop just outside the tent for the freshest eggs at breakfast, simply added as an extra when booking.
From the farm gate, excellent countryside walks lead through beautiful rural landscapes or into the nearby market town of Romsey. Wood fired sauna & ice plunge are available by prebooking for groups only ( £250 for ice plunge & sauna for groups, 2 hour slot), as well as yoga and pilates classes held in our peaceful studio.
During high season, we host wood-fired pizza nights every Tuesday and Saturday for glamping guests, using our outdoor pizza oven and a choice of delicious toppings. Supper clubs, cookery demonstrations and seasonal events are also held throughout the year.
The on-site farm shop stocks glamping essentials including extra firewood, charcoal, firelighters, marshmallows, Gambledown meat, local ice cream and tea and coffee.
Gambledown Farm is dog friendly and ideal for families and group bookings, offering off-grid living with all the modern comforts you need for a relaxing stay.
These properties can be booked together to accommodate up to 46 guests.
