Malting Farm sits on a 300-acre working family farm in Little Bentley, near Colchester, offering individually designed luxury cabins, glamping bell-tents and treehouses set in a secluded meadow. On site you can follow the farm nature trail and zip-wire, try paddleboarding or wild swimming on the reservoir, fish for free, or pick up supplies from the honesty shop. The owners also help arrange cycling, boat trips and cooking courses nearby. Beyond the farm, you're well placed to explore Essex and Suffolk's countryside, with Constable Country and the Dedham Vale a short drive away, plus Colchester Zoo and Jimmy's Farm within easy reach. Manningtree Beach is just 4.3 miles off, and Weeley station is 2.5 miles away, making this a peaceful yet accessible countryside base.
