About

Bell Tent Glamping is a unique, exclusive-use wedding venue set within the beautiful surroundings of Royal Victoria Country Park in Nettley. Designed for couples who want a relaxed, outdoor celebration connected to nature, this family-run glamping site offers a calm and flexible setting surrounded by woodland, open skies and coastal air.

Weddings here are all about freedom and personalisation. When you book, you receive exclusive use of the entire site for two nights, giving you and your guests time to arrive, settle in and celebrate at your own pace. The grounds are ideal for informal receptions, festival-style gatherings and marquee weddings, with plenty of outdoor space to design a day that feels completely your own. A marquee can be added for dining and dancing, with power, lighting and picnic-style seating available, making it suitable for both intimate celebrations and larger, lively receptions.

Ceremonies can take place at the nearby chapel within Royal Victoria Country Park, which holds a marriage licence and offers a charming setting for smaller ceremonies. Couples may also choose to marry elsewhere before hosting their reception at Bell Tent Glamping. Catering is entirely flexible, with the freedom to bring in your own suppliers. Popular options include food trucks, barbecues and generous buffet-style feasts, while a bar serving wine, beer, spirits and signature drinks can be arranged.

On-site accommodation includes ten bell tents and six cabins, sleeping up to 66 guests, alongside modern toilet and shower facilities, a kitchenette and free parking. Friendly dogs are welcome and guests can enjoy woodland walks, sea views and a peaceful atmosphere.

For couples dreaming of an alternative wedding venue in Hampshire, Bell Tent Glamping offers a relaxed, nature-led celebration where almost anything is possible and memories are made under open skies.
