Hotel-style luxury glamping on a beautiful Norfolk farm halfway between Thetford and Norwich

Upmarket glamping usually means shepherds huts or safari tents, but at the delightfully named Glamp and Tipple at Rookery Farm in South Norfolk, they've managed to stay true to their roots while still offering about as luxurious a glamping experience as you'll find. This small, luxury, five yurt site is very versatile and well-equipped for both families and couples, not to mention a fantastic option if you're planning a birthday party or special event for a larger group.

Guests tip-toe around in fluffy robes, clink glasses while drying their hair after a dip in the hot tub. However, unlike a hotel, you sleep under the insulation of high-end Mongolian yurts complete with powerful log burners. Boring corridors are replaced with grassy pathways, garden trolleys instead of luggage trolleys and the sound of birdsong rather than canned music. Think of it as a deconstructed boutique hotel, with large canvas suites, posh private bathrooms, a large covered games area, a kids’ play area, honesty coffee corner, not to mention the onsite honesty shop. Dogs are also welcome and get their very own welcome pack. Owners Helen and Louise are warm and welcoming hosts, on hand to ensure that you have everything you need 24/7 – just like a proper hotel!

There are just five super-spacious yurts in all, each one of which is heated and fitted out with a proper bed while retaining all the back-to-nature charm of the glamping experience, with a log burner, twinkling fairylights, undercover cooking space, barbecue, picnic table, firepit and private covered wood-fired hot tub just steps from your door. Each yurt has a designated on site private bathroom with flushing toilet and a power shower. You also have unlimited electricity, WIFI and free parking for the duration of your stay.

There is a shared covered communal area with chill-out space, pool table, darts, table football, table tennis and giant outdoor games. There are also lots of optional extras to choose from such as in-yurt cinemas, decoration packages, private beauty treatments, pizza oven hire, and onsite bespoke catering if you want it – just bring the bubbly. Indeed even the yurt themselves are individually named after champagne brands!

Don't forget also that you're in Norfolk and there's lots to explore in this thoroughly rural county, with oodles of country walks, country pubs, the Broads National Park on your doorstep and the lure of Breckland and the vast expanse of Thetford Forest a short drive away. But the real reason for staying is in the name. This is a place to relax and take a break, to enjoy the outdoors with a glass of champagne in hand, where you can forget about the stress of daily life and spend your evening doing what you’re meant to: glamping and tippling!

The Owner Says

Luxury Yurt and Cabin Glamping in the Heart of Norfolk

Glamp & Tipple is a small, exclusive luxury glamping site set within peaceful Norfolk farmland. Open all year round, we offer beautifully appointed yurts and cabins where guests can relax, reconnect and enjoy the countryside without sacrificing their home comforts.

Alongside our five established luxury yurts, we are delighted to introduce four brand-new luxury cabins, opening and available for stays from 26th March 2027. With nine individually styled accommodation units, Glamp & Tipple is perfect for romantic breaks, family holidays, celebrations and exclusive group stays.

Every yurt and cabin has its own private wood-fired hot tub, giving guests the perfect place to unwind beneath the Norfolk skies.


Our Five Luxury Yurts

Our five spacious, heated yurts—Moët, Pérignon, Krug, Taittinger and Bollinger—each have their own distinctive theme, colour scheme and character.

Inside each yurt, you will find a king-size main bed, along with single or double futon sofa beds and floor futon mattresses. The exact sleeping arrangements vary depending on the yurt and the number of guests staying. All beds are prepared with cosy teddy bear fleece bedding, mattress toppers, throws and cushions. One towel is provided per person, together with robes for adults.

Each yurt also includes a galaxy projector, Bluetooth speaker, clothes storage, a clothes airer, complimentary electricity and Wi-Fi. Please remember that we are in a rural location, so the internet service may not always be as reliable as it is at home. For entertainment, there is a Smart TV, with a DVD player available upon request.

For warmth and cooking, every yurt has a log-burning stove with an oven and fireguard, as well as an internal folding dining table and chairs. Kitchen facilities include a full-size fridge with a freezer compartment, kitchen utensils, crockery, cutlery, tea towels, a teapot and a cafetière. You will also find an electric kettle, tea, coffee, hot chocolate, biscuits and mini marshmallows.

Hot-water bottles and a torch are provided, along with a starter supply of heat logs, kindling, firelighters and matches. Additional heat logs, kindling and firelighters can be purchased on-site. Each yurt also contains cleaning equipment, a fire extinguisher, fire blanket, first-aid kit, carbon monoxide detector and smoke detector.

Outside each yurt, you will have your own private, covered, wood-fired hot tub complete with jets and lights. There is also a covered outdoor kitchen area equipped with a double gas camping stove and unlimited gas, a selection of saucepans and frying pans, a large 11-litre casserole or stock pot and a large water container.

For outdoor cooking, you will find a Kadai firepit with BBQ equipment, together with a tripod and Dutch oven. Each yurt also has its own picnic table, with a parasol available upon request, as well as BBQ cleaning equipment and two large waste bins.

Whether you are planning a romantic escape, a family adventure or a cosy winter break, our yurts offer a truly magical glamping experience throughout every season.
