Equipped with twin beds, metered electrical supply and exclusive outdoor seating and barbecue area, George's lakeside wooden tipi is the right choice not just for anglers, but for walkers, birders, photographers… in fact anyone seeking to recharge the batteries in a tranquil offgrid rural retreat. Showers, toilets and a communal ‘field kitchen’ are close by, as is a fully stocked tackle & bait shop. Hot and cold snacks, breakfast, lunches and dinner available from the onsite Carol's Kitchen food concession. And an extensive takeaway delivery menu is available seven days a week.

Just a short hop from historic Bury St Edmunds and the university city of Cambridge, the picturesque medieval wool town of Clare boasts a rich and diverse history; and a host of attractions and distractions which belie its diminutive size - including a monthly artisan market, galleries, antique shops, a golf course, cafes, pubs and restaurants.
