We only stayed for 1 night but had a fun night all together in Chestnut . Very spacious for a family of 4 and lived having our own little bathroom hut .

Fantastic hospitality by Bozhanka and her family. An added bonus was the unexpected tractor ride for the kids to get the luggage to the yurt.
The setting of the yurts is outstanding and fabulous for tranquility in the middle of nowhere. Nature is all around you, which also includes a few creepy crawlies, as to be expected.
I highly recommend the walk to The Duke of Cumberland Arms, which served fantastic lunch.

Fantastic stay at Chestnut Yurt. Rach was really welcoming and made sure we were stocked up with ice blocks in the hot weather for our food. The yurt and bathroom were clean and well set up and it was great to sit inside with the wood burning stove at night or out in the sun with the Bbq and parasol in the day. We also visited a nearby pub for lunch so a few great walks nearby. Recommend 🙂

My husband and I and our three daughters stayed for two nights to celebrate a special birthday. The yurt was well equipped and comfortable: it was nice to glamp with some of the home comforts (we normally camp). The location was beautiful and very peaceful and we were blessed with warm and sunny weather.Rachel met us and made sure we had everything we needed and Charlotte was there when we left to make sure we'd had a good stay. All in all, it was perfect and we would highly recommend it.

Thanks for a lovely stay! We really enjoyed the space in the yurt & thankful for the fire come the night time! The space felt very homely, with all the things you would need for a comfortable stay. Rachel was lovely & so helpful. She really made us feel welcome. We will definitely visit again soon. Thank you!

The yurt is absolutely beautiful and just as it is described and shown in the pictures. Our 2 kids had a a great time playing on the swing and running around the fields, having water fights, getting muddy and toasting marshmallows in the evening. There are lots of gorgeous pubs and country walks / cycle rides to do close by. A really fun stay.

This was our first Air B&B experience and we cannot rate it highly enough. Charlotte gave immediate confirmation and then followed up with clear and personal information, even down to ensuring instructions were awaiting us for our drive to Goodwood the next day.

A great place for some country R&R. The yurt was v spacious and fully equipped to hide from the rain in front of the log burner. Can’t recommend highly enough!

Hugely enjoyable stay in this secluded location. The yurt is beautifully made and when the log burner is going it is very cosy. The double bed is comfortable and the washing facilities definitely not like camping (hot shower). Equipped with all you would need. Good attention to detail and Rachel was a delightful and helpful host. She really cared that we enjoyed ourselves. Thoroughly recommended.

Frequent Questions

Where abouts is Ivy located?

Ivy is our new hideaway located in the far right hand corner of the meadow adjacent (but not close to) Badger Camp.

How many does Ivy sleep?

Ivy is set up with a double bed so it’s perfect for couples. If you would like to bring children with you then it is sometimes possible to pitch a 2 man tent next to Ivy – please contact camphq@nightpastures.com to discuss before making a booking.

What are the bathroom facilities?

Ivy has her own hand built bathroom with a compost loo and wonderfully hot shower. We provide fluffy towels for every guest.

What are the Kitchen facilities like?

Ivy has a handbuilt outdoor field kitchen, with gas burners, kettle and a sink for washing up. She also has her own large ice-box which keeps all refrigerated items cold. Ice bricks can be swapped over in the shop each day. Ivy has a modest (basic) selection of the plates, cutlery, cups, utensils and pans which should be adequate for cooking a simple meal. There is a picnic table outside for al fresco dining.

What about Campfires?

We think campfires are essential for any glamping holiday! Ivy has her own fire bowl which can double up as a charcoal BBQ should you wish to have a true outdoor experience. Wood, kindling, lighters and matches can be purchased on site. Please be careful to keep the fire pit away from the van and control the fire at all times. Please note that there is no smoking or naked flames inside Ivy.

What about Electricity & WiFi?

Ivy has internal fairy lights but you may want to bring torches for extra lighting. There is no electricity for charging phones but there is some electricity in the shop and we will happily put your phone on charge for the day if necessary as well as provide power for essential medical equipment. A stay at Night Pastures is all about switching off so we have consciously decided not to offer WiFi to our guests however there are 4G and 5G signals in parts of the field so you won’t be completely cut off.

Do you allow dogs?

Sadly, Dogs are not permitted in any of our glamping options

Is there Parking?

Parking is available in the field adjacent to Night Pastures and access to the van is via a short walk across the field. You can unload your car in the drop off zone by the gate where you will find wheelbarrows to help you move your luggage. Once unloaded, we ask that you move your car back to the main parking area to the right past the garages. We have a couple of disabled parking spaces available for the less mobile. Please note that in order to preserve Night Pastures unique environment and meadow habitat, parking next to the van is strictly prohibited.

Is Early Check-in & Late Check-out possible?

Our check-in times are staggered to reduce congestion in the drop off zone and you are welcome to check-in from 3.30pm. A 1.30pm early check-in and 12.30pm late check-out can sometimes be arranged in advance but there is a £25 charge for this service. To ensure that other guests are not disturbed, we do not allow check-in after 9pm. We respectfully ask that you are punctual at check-out so that we can get the tents ready for the next guests.

Do you have a minimum stay?

All of our glamping options have a 2 night minimum stay and 3 nights over a bank holiday weekend. Occasionally, a single night can be arranged for a midweek stay. Please contact CampHQ@nightpastures.com to enquire.

Will I be cold?

There is no heating inside Ivy so you will need to rely on the duvets provided. If you feel the cold then we suggest you bring some extra layers and a hot water bottle.

Are Linen and towels included?

The bed will be freshly made for your arrival with sheets, duvets and pillows. Towels and a bath mat are also provided. All bedding is changed at the end of your stay but if you need it changed before then, please contact the site manager who will arrange it for you. Additional charges apply for extra linen
