Glamping in Wicken Fen National Nature Reserve

·

Glamping at Wicken Fen National Nature Reserve means waking up to wild marshes and the rustle of reeds, not the typical damp tent. With over 170 glamping options here, you can swap the sleeping bag for a yurt, shepherd’s hut, or safari tent—many with hot showers, wifi, and wood-fired campfires for late-night stories. Average nightly prices hover around £100, but you’ll find options dipping as low as £40. Keen on hiking, horseback riding, or a post-walk swim? You’re in the right spot. Local favourites like Cuckoo Farm Campsite (60 reviews), Hatters Meadows Cambridgeshire (53 reviews), and Whitlingham Broad Campsite (52 reviews) always book up fast, and for good reason—their sites are clean, their facilities are spot-on, and the views stretch for miles. Bring wellies, a torch, and a good appetite for fresh air.
