Noise
We are in a quiet rural area over-looking a village. The church bells are quite noisy! They sound on the hour and there is bell ringing on a Sunday morning and Thursday evening. If the wind blows from the north (not prevailing) it is possible to hear traffic on the A38. This is more noticeable at night. We are surrounded by farms so farm machinery may be working at any time. Cockerels can be heard in the early morning.
Bee Hives
We have local bee hives but none in the field which contain the tent.
Animals
We are not a farm but we currently have a few chickens and a couple of cats that may visit the glamping field. We have seen deer, foxes and badgers in the field
