GLAMPING EVENTS & CELEBRATIONS

The Ultimate Glamping Party Your Way

Hen parties, birthday celebrations, milestone events & group getaways in the Suffolk countryside

Forget the city bar crawl. Forget the standard spa weekend. Forget anywhere that looks like everywhere else.

Coppins Farm is a private, 150-acre eco estate on the Suffolk/Essex border, and for one weekend it can be entirely, exclusively yours. We give you the most magical setting in East Anglia, the infrastructure to party properly, the glamping to sleep in style, and total freedom to design the celebration exactly as you want it.

Whether you're organising a hen party your bride-to-be will never stop talking about, a landmark birthday that deserves a landmark setting, a group of friends long overdue a proper adventure, or any other reason to gather the people you love most in one spectacular place, this is where it happens.

We Give You the Stage. You Choose the Show

Most event venues give you a package and ask you to fit inside it. We do things differently.

Coppins Farm is your base, a beautiful, fully equipped private estate with a legendary bar, luxury glamping accommodation and 150 acres of countryside to roam. Around that base, you build your event. You choose the activities. You choose the food. You choose how gentle the weekend becomes. We help you make it happen.

That means your hen party can include a morning yoga session and an evening music, or a gin cocktail masterclass followed by a campfire feast. Your birthday weekend could start with wild swimming and end with dancing under fairy lights until the stars come out. There are only good times, good people and a setting that makes everything feel a little more magical than usual.

We have a trusted network of local activity providers and caterers who come to you, so there's minimal organising on your part. Tell us what you're dreaming of and we'll help you piece it together.

The Spaces — Where the Magic Happens

Everything You Need, All in One Place

The Tipi Party Space

Two giant hat tipis set in a wildflower meadow, this is your evening party venue, your dining space, your dancefloor, your gathering place. With soaring canvas ceilings strung with fairy lights, woven matting underfoot and trestle tables arranged to your specification, the tipis can hold up to 150 guests for an evening party or 120 for seated dining. Sides lift open to the meadow so the party flows inside and out as the evening builds.

This is not a function room. It's a destination in itself.

The Off The Rails Bar

Every great party needs a great bar and ours is genuinely one of a kind. Off The Rails is a beautifully restored Victorian railway carriage transformed into a walk-in bar, complete with a bespoke wood and resin counter, copper splashbacks, brass fittings and warm lighting that makes everything feel a little more golden.

Traditional cask ales tapped from the barrel, chilled draught lager, wine, spirits, cocktails, soft drinks, served by friendly, experienced bar staff who know how to look after a crowd. Fully self-contained, fully stocked, and available exclusively for your group.

Your guests will be photographing it within thirty seconds of arrival.

The Meadow Glampsite

Sleep the way a celebration weekend deserves. Your group can be delivered to our private glampsite by vintage Land Rover, already a moment, where six luxury bell tents are arranged across the meadow with panoramic views stretching across the Suffolk countryside.

Each luxury tent has a full-size double bed with a memory foam mattress, premium bedding, fairy lights and a proper bedside table. The beautifully designed eco shower and loo block means you wake up comfortable and refreshed. A fire pit stocked with logs and marshmallows on sticks is ready for late-night conversations. A campsite kitchen lets you brew morning coffee before the world wakes up.

This is glamping as it should be, genuinely comfortable, genuinely wild, genuinely unforgettable.

The Meadow, Woodland & Beyond

150 acres of wildlife reserve means your weekend isn't confined to the campsite. Walk through ancient woodland, follow sunken country lanes, find a quiet corner of wildflower meadow. It's the breathing space between the big moments, and it's just as important as the party itself.

Food & Drink — Feast Like You Mean It

Catering That Matches the Setting

 

A great event is made or broken by its food and drink. At Coppins Farm we work with a handpicked selection of local caterers and mobile food providers who understand what a celebration weekend needs, generous, delicious, beautifully presented food that brings people together rather than interrupting the fun.

Whether you want a long, lazy outdoor feast, a grazing table piled with local artisan produce, a professional chef cooking in the tipis, a fire-cooked barbecue under the stars or a morning-after brunch spread on the hillside, we can help you find the right caterer for your vision and budget.

Catering options we can help arrange:

Grazing tables & mezze spreads

abundant, beautiful, social

Wood-fired pizza

crowd-pleasing, casual, absolutely delicious

BBQ & fire cooking
