Lovely stay in their Lapwing tent. 100% would recommend, beautiful countryside, lovely village, and short drives to some lovely Cotswold villages.- Joseph
We came to stay at the safari tents for my partners birthday, it is the perfect location for a rural retreat but only a stones throw from the quaint little town of Bourton-on-the-water. I would definitely recommend staying at the safari tents again. – Sam
When we arrived, our tent was clean and cozy. We enjoyed the rustic setting and our kids enjoyed playing on the playground and in the playroom. Even though it was midsummer, it got chilly at night and we were glad that the blankets were warm. The included space heater is also very effective at heating the living area and I recommend getting some firewood to burn in the log burner. Our kids enjoyed visiting the farm area, which had donkeys, goats, sheep, and alpacas. The location is nowhere, but also right in the middle of the Cotswold area so it is convenient as a base for sightseeing in the area. I would recommend the tents for anyone visiting the Cotswolds in summer and looking for a rustic experience. – Mike

SAFARI TENT RULES
We want you to enjoy your time with us and these rules are made with that in mind:
- Notgrove is a sleepy old place. We welcome families and couples but please be respectful of your neighbours and the villagers by turning off any outside music after 9.30 pm – keep the noise down to a respectable level.
- There is a no smoking or vaping policy in the Safari tents. You’re welcome to smoke or vape outside but please dispose of butts in ashtray provided. If we find you have been smoking a cleaning fee of £50 will be payable.
- We do not allow e-bike, battery, a/c units or large electrical devices to be charge inside any tent. Please only charged them on the veranda outside the tent.
- Please do not leave the gas hobs on when not cooking as it melts the gas rings and could cause a serious accident.
- Notgrove is a beautiful place and we would like to keep it that way. Please dispose of all rubbish and recycling in the bins provided.
- We provide a wood burner but no other fires are to be lit anywhere around the site. You may bring disposable BBQ’s but please ensure you light them on a safe surface – not on the grass, tables or wooden decking.
- If you are expecting guests, please let us know. Any additional guests not mentioned will be charged £10, no matter how short their visit.
- The outside communal areas are here for all to enjoy. Please be respectful of other guests wishing to use them – and also of other guests relaxing while you are playing.
- Dogs are welcome in the tents BUT must be kept under control at all times. Please do not leave dogs unsupervised in the tents, and all dog poo must be picked up and put into the dog poo bin provided. We would also appreciate dogs being kept off the beds and furniture. Please use the dog towels provided after a muddy/wet walk. Thank you.
