Immersive wild glamping, Ashdown Forest

Restoring 6.5 hectares of land from conventionally farmed arable rotation to a rewilded healthy mixed native habitat.

Key Features:

• Restoration of 6.5ha of conventional arable land to rewilded native habitat.

• Design of immersive wild camping experiences for guests to enjoy.

• Creation of new habitats including species rich grassland, woodland and wetlands.

• Bringing the client’s vision to life through considered design and visual illustrations

The project is a nature-inspired glamping experience that blends ecological restoration with immersive design. Spanning 6.35 hectares in the High Weald, this design aims to create a unique, high-end camping retreat that integrates with the landscape’s natural beauty and biodiversity.

Six distinct camping bays, each named after native trees, are nestled within wildflower meadows, offering guests secluded, serene spaces with features like fire pits, shepherd's huts, and communal areas.

The project prioritizes inclusivity, with bays designed for varying guest needs, and fosters a deep connection to nature while supporting wildlife through native plantings and habitat restoration.

This thoughtful and considered design harmonizes relaxation with environmental stewardship, creating a truly immersive experience.
