Welcome to Rum Bridge

Idyllic, affordable ‘offgrid’ camping and glamping short breaks, staycations and fishing holidays in Clare, Suffolk
About Rum Bridge

And... relax!

Desperate for a ‘digital detox’ – a revitalising offgrid escape from the stresses and strains of hectic city life? Rum Bridge Glamping could be just the tonic you need.

This idyllic rural retreat in the heart of the tranquil Suffolk countryside offers families, couples and solo travellers alike a choice of intimate yet highly affordable wooden glamping ‘pods’ and distinctive bell tents, tucked away amid the trees in an established County Wildlife Area.

Offering great value self-catering getaways for couples and family groups, each offgrid home-from-home benefits from a limited power supply – sufficient (depending on available sunlight) to power lighting and panel heaters, and charge ipads and phones – as well as fire pits and outdoor seating.

Carol’s Kitchen, the onsite food concession, offers hot and cold meals, snacks and drinks throughout the day.  Each bell tent and lodge is just a short hop from hot showers, flush toilets, and a communal food preparation and washing-up area.

For anglers, Rum Bridge presents a wealth of options – from pleasure fishing for tench, crucians, rudd and roach, to angling for larger carp. And pretty much everything in between.

Although dogs are not allowed within the fenced lakeside area – due to the free-ranging chickens, hand-reared Muscovy and India Runner ducks, and other birdlife – our pet friendly gypsy carriage ‘Rose’, ‘Saffie’s’ family bell tent, and ‘Hazels’ pod enable families to enjoy a peaceful break in the company of their four legged friends, close to the showers, shop and field kitchen.

In addition to our family pods and extra-large bell tents, we also offer site exclusive bookings – ideal for team-building days, kids’ birthdays, and unique stag and hen parties – complete with catering, marquees, and more.
