About this property

Dog friendly Safari Tent, Swallow at Sweffling Hall, Suffolk

Nestled between the Suffolk countryside and the coastal town of Aldeburgh, Swallow is one of six traditional off-grid safari tents at Sweffling Hall, a peaceful place for spending quality time together, perfect for couples, families and dogs alike. Surrounded by open fields and local farms, it feels tucked away with plenty of outdoor space where little adventures happen naturally and children can run freely, play and connect with nature away from screens, creating memories that last.

Each of our off-grid safari tents at Lantern & Larks, accommodates six guests across three bedrooms. There is one king size room, one twin room and one bunk bedroom. Inside, there is an open plan living area with a spacious kitchen featuring a double gas hob, two cool boxes, a dining table, a comfortable seating area and a wood-burning stove. Each safari tent also has its own private bathroom facilities with running water, as well as its own outdoor seating area with a firepit and unlimited logs included.
We provide rechargeable lanterns and hot water bottles to keep you cosy in the evenings - though it's always worth packing for a little bit of everything when it comes to British weather.

Sweffling Hall is perfectly placed for exploring some of Suffolk's most loved coastal spots. Aldeburgh is just a short drive away, with its pebble beach, colourful seafront, independent shops and famous fish and chips, ideal for a relaxed afternoon by the sea. Southwold makes another great day out, with its sandy beach, traditional pier, lighthouse and plenty of places to stop for an ice cream or browse the local shops.

Closer to the site, you'll find peaceful estuaries, reed beds, walking trails and charming villages to explore at your own pace. Whether it's a beach day with the family, a coastal walk, birdwatching or simply enjoying good food by the sea, there's plenty nearby before returning to your safari tent to spend the evening together.

There is an abundance of on site activities that can be booked in advance such as Nature Meditation, Forest Bathing, Beachcombing, Astronomy Sessions and a Horse and Cart Ride. Please enquiry for additional information.
