Discover the Charm of Dandelion Hideaway: A Glamping Adventure Awaits!

Greetings from The Dandelion Hideaway! As we eagerly await our grand opening this Easter, we couldn't contain our excitement to share all the wonderful happenings on our farm in Leicestershire.

Despite the challenges posed by the rainy weather, our team has been working tirelessly to ensure that your glamping experience surpasses expectations for the 2024 holiday season.

A Refreshing Retreat Amidst Nature's Canvas

Nestled amidst the picturesque countryside, The Dandelion Hideaway is more than just a glamping site—it's an escape to tranquility. As the fields gradually dry up, we're gearing up to plant maize, but in the meantime, our attention is focused on perfecting every detail of your stay at our canvas cottages.

New Delights Await

We're thrilled to introduce our newest addition, "The Old Cow Shed," has been relocated, a charming shop situated at the heart of the award-winning glamping field, near the wood store. It's the perfect spot to indulge in a little retail therapy or pick up essentials for your glamping stay.

 

For our young adventurers, we've unveiled a brand-new play area, thoughtfully designed within sight of our beautiful safari tents. Let the children's laughter fill the air as they explore and play, creating memories to last a lifetime.

A Symphony of Farm Life

At The Dandelion Hideaway, we believe in embracing the rhythm of farm life here in the Leicestershire countryside. Join us for enchanting child-friendly animal feeding sessions, where you can get up close and personal with our beloved residents. We're thrilled to announce the arrival of two adorable calves, adding to the charm of our farm. And let's not forget our feathered friends—the arrival of new chickens has added a delightful flutter to our surroundings.

Introduction to Forest School: Where Nature Becomes the Classroom

Amidst the serene landscape of The Dandelion Hideaway, nestled within our small wood, lies a hidden gem: our very own Badger Hide. Here, children are invited to immerse themselves in the wonders of Forest School, where nature becomes the classroom.


Under the dappled sunlight filtering through the canopy, young explorers can engage in a myriad of activities, from building dens to nature-inspired crafts. Our Forest School area encourages curiosity, creativity, and a deep connection with the natural world. Join us for an child friendly unforgettable adventure where the forest becomes a playground of learning and discovery.

Weathering the Storms, Embracing the Sunshine

As the dandelions and bluebells bloom and the sun casts its golden glow upon our fields, The Dandelion Hideaway stands ready to welcome you for an unforgettable glamping experience this Spring and Summer.

What can beat a UK Summer? Birdsong, beer gardens, Al Fresco Dining. Looking at the weather today – snow, ice and rain – I cannot wait.
