Eastlife Spring 2021
This is our fourth issue during the pandemic. Fourth! I can’t quite believe it. Like many other businesses we have learned to adapt. I am no longer flustered when events are cancelled at the last moment before print, it has become the norm.

LITTLE EAST<br />
The riverside campsite<br />
provides the chance to get<br />
back to nature with friends<br />
and family<br />
Owner Kate said: “Our yurts and<br />
Roundhouse are really child friendly<br />
and we’re popular with young families.<br />
We have high chairs, travel cots (we ask<br />
guests to bring bedding for these) and<br />
have plastic plates and cups available.<br />
“The site is great for families, there’s<br />
a huge meadow for exploring and<br />
running free where parents can easily<br />
see them. There’s also a woodland<br />
play area which families love and we’re<br />
currently putting up a tipi shelter which<br />
gives outdoor protection from the<br />
elements including the hot sun<br />
for babies.”<br />
Discover Cambridgeshire’s heritage and<br />
countryside with a break at Waterclose<br />
Meadows campsite near Huntington.<br />
The riverside campsite provides the<br />
chance to get back to nature with<br />
friends and family. Set in the grounds<br />
of the historic Houghton Mill National<br />
Trust watermill, the camp is perfect for<br />
making the most of long summer days<br />
with plenty of local cycling and walking<br />
routes plus water activities such as<br />
canoeing. It’s certainly worth packing<br />
your dinghy! Alternatively keep it<br />
classic and hire a punt or rowboat from<br />
Houghton Boats next to the Mill.<br />
At Secret Meadows in Suffolk, there’s a<br />
choice of glamping accommodation.<br />
Luxury lodge tents, a hobbits box, gypsy<br />
rest and even a two-storey safari tent.<br />
Each accommodation is designed and<br />
decorated to reflect an extravagant<br />
woodland retreat. You can order extra<br />
touches such as breakfast hampers,<br />
private hen coops and a hot tub. This is<br />
the ultimate glamping experience.<br />
With so much beautiful countryside<br />
across East Anglia, there are some<br />
wonderful campsites to be discovered<br />
with a location to suit all styles and<br />
budgets.<br />
