Absolutely fantastic get away, clean rooms, comfy beds and the best equipped glamping pods I’ve ever seen. Luke is super helpful and goes that extra mile to ensure your stay is luxury and comfortable. Canoe hire is also available which comes at a discounted rate if you’re staying. Not a bad word to be said.

Thank you Luke, Louise and the team for making our stay amazing

Me and my mum stayed at Dilham Hall Retreats with my 2 young boys. It was so idyllic! Perfect, quiet setting on the canal where we had plenty of open space. My boys loved the space to play around and explore and they especially loved the hot tub and being able to ‘light’ the wood so it made it a hands on experience. It’s a lovely location, with the broads 15 mins away and the coast also 15 mins.

The pod was so clean and had everything we needed to make it a comfortable and easy experience. All cooking appliances and utensils you’d need and clean linen and towels. We all slept like logs as it was lovely and warm and peaceful as it has heating too. We loved being able to sit by the fire outside at night and we cooked our hot dogs on it too before jumping in the hot tub under the stars.🌟 Just brilliant! Will definitely be returning and have already recommended it to friends. ☺️

Just got back from a couple of nights at Dilham Hall Retreats. We stayed at the Couples Glamping site in Swallowtail.

The pod itself provided all we needed and was spotless. Communication with the owners was excellent. There were some lovely walks available from the site. Highlight had to be the hot tub. It was a magical experience to be sitting in there watching the barn owl and bats flying around and listening to the Tawny owls calling to each other. We were also visited by a beautiful Reeves pheasant. It was an amazing place to say which I would highly recommend.

Stunning place! Stayed for 4 nights in Heron, the pod was so clean on arrival and kitted out with everything you need. The hot tub is great, love the fact you have to light a fire for it. Would defiantly return.

Amazing few days away with the family and wish we could stay longer. Clean and modern accommodation with an excellent hot tub that is easy and simple to use. Tucked away and so quiet and peaceful. We will definitely be back!
