Did we mention the C Word already?! Christmas!! Now we’re into October it feels like Christmas is right around the corner and it’s time to start planning festive parties. Have yourself a merry little Christmas at Happy Valley where we have two stripped back barns to host a Winter Wonderland Party.

Hire our Hay barn with wood burner for a candlelit seasonal supper and dance or for larger companies our Dutch barn is the perfect party place. The Dutch barn is dressed with fairy and festoon lighting, a stylish stage and bar large enough to stock every festive tipple. Choosing your Corporate Christmas Party comes down to the venue and WHAT a woodland setting we’re able to offer you, just a short proximity from Kings Lynn. Our barns can be transformed to play host to magical experiences during the run up to the holiday season.

Autumn Glamping in Norfolk

Just consider such appeals as the locally sourced produce, nature, wildlife, forest bathing and ever-lasting memories that only glamping breaks can give you. There’s never been a better time to book your very own glamping experience!

Why we love glamping here in the Winter? It's romantic and offers an undeniable break from the norm. You can't beat the wonderful sense of escapism experienced when you wake up cosy and warm in a proper bed, rekindle the wood-burner and peep out of a frosty window to reveal a wintery wonderland beyond. Getting out in the countryside and breathing in the fresh, cool winter air is the perfect way to escape day to day life and live adventurously. Going glamping in winter is a gateway into a whole new world of holiday experiences.

We’re now taking bookings for Winter 2019.  Please contact one of our Glamping team to secure your cosy stay in one of our Woodland cabins.

Into the Wild

“It seems to me that the natural world is the greatest source of excitement; the greatest source of visual beauty; the greatest source of intellectual interest. It is the greatest source of so much in life that makes life worth living.” 
― David Attenborough

Stepping into the Wild from our King Bell Tent

Stepping into the Wild from our King Bell Tent

Happy Valley Norfolk is home to a wilderness of natural habitats.  We’re proud to be a Norfolk Wildlife Trust site and play an important role in protecting our natural heritage.  All of our builds are sympathetic to the surrounding habitats.  We hand dig all foundations and create space under each cabin for wildlife to flourish. The wild grounds here are an abundant life source of excitement for us too, which is why we’re eager to share their beauty with you.

Lake life at Happy Valley

Lake life at Happy Valley

Happy Valley Norfolk is set in 9 acres of ancient woodland and meadowland where nature quietly thrives.  Our tranquil site is wildlife rich and home to many species including song birds and owls; bats taking flight with the rare long eared bat spotted hanging out here, squirrels scaling sky high pines, rabbits, hare, munt jack and deer hopping and skipping through whilst nestled in the safe space of our forest are hedgehogs, badgers, stoats and foxes taking sanctuary.  Butterflies, Dragon Flies, Bees and Moths weave in and out of the flora whilst our lake of whispering Willows overlooks plentiful pond-life. During the summer of 2019 we’ve planted acres of wildflower and our Sainfoin field at the family farm produces pink blooms which are a magnet to insects.

A safe space for children & wildlife

A safe space for children & wildlife

As a family we’ve immersed our children in nature with the forest floor as their playground.  We’ve created a Glamping site in harmony with wild inhabitants to encourage other families to harness an appreciation of wildlife and how we can all relate positively to the natural world that unconditionally sustains us.

The more we enrich our bond with Mother Nature, the more likely we are to conserve her future. Spending time outdoors in nature each day is the healthiest way to strengthen our connection with our natural roots. Encouraging our children to form respectful connections with our natural neighbours is perhaps the most precious way to keep our wild heritage alive!

We’ve illustrated our natural habitat for all who come to stay and developed activity sheets to encourage families to explore their wild surroundings together.

How can you connect with nature at Happy Valley? Let us name just a few naturally healing things to do… from forest bathing to star gazing, hunting for bugs, foraging for fruits and making mindfully natural mandalas, taking time out for wildlife spotting from the comfort of your hammock and for the more adventurous walking deep into the woods to discover natures treasures.

Sir David Attenborough, Stephen Fry, Catherine Tate, Alison Steadman and Asim Chaudhry have backed a new campaign from The Wildlife Trusts that calls for a wilder future and for nature’s recovery in the UK.
 
The conservationist and actors have starring roles in a new Wind in the Willows film trailer which brings to life the 21st century threats facing the much-loved characters from Kenneth Grahame’s children’s classic. The animated trailer calls on everyone to help bring our wildlife back before it’s too late, so that we can all enjoy a wilder future.
 
At Happy Valley we named our naturally built treehouse ‘Toad Hall’ after being inspired by the Wind in the Willows tale as children.  We hope that a stay here with your offspring inspires you and your wildlings to deepen your connection with nature and ignite your passion for a wilder future!
