Sleep Under the Ridgeway: Glamping at Cedar Emperor Tent near Rugby

On the grassy high flank of an ancient ridgeway outside Rugby, England, Cedar offers a two-night emperor tent stay that feels like stepping into a small, private country film set. The field is part of a fifty-acre hay meadow where cows, horses and pigs graze in slow rhythms; mornings arrive with skylarks trilling and wide panoramas of rolling farmland. The tent sleeps up to five on single beds, and its simple arrangement keeps attention on the view: a long sweep of meadow, the line of the ridgeway, and the clean horizon beyond. Check-in is Friday at 3pm; guests receive self check-in instructions inside the tent and are asked not to arrive after dark because the access track is narrow and unlit. Driving is slow and intentional — the hosts request 2 mph on the track and limit two cars per tent — which preserves the feel of place and protects the paddock's edges. On arrival you’ll find a woodburner and a firepit to use at your own risk; sacks of wood are available for purchase. Days here are built around simple pleasures: boots on the ridgeway for short walks, reading by the tent flap, and breakfast from a locally sourced hamper if you’ve booked one. The glamping pitch sits above a historic path that has carried walkers and livestock for centuries, which gives the site a sense of continuity uncommon in modern escapes. The property is a working paddock, so expect the honest sounds of farm life and follow the noise and music restrictions intended to keep late-night disturbance to a minimum. Accessibility is limited — the grassy paddock and uneven access track make this a poor fit for most wheelchair users — and the hosts are explicit about the responsibility involved in driving and wandering the ridgeway. If you do plan to explore beyond the field, bring proper boots for muddy stretches and a map or phone with offline directions; cell coverage can be patchy in rural pockets. For small groups and friends seeking a quiet country weekend that still feels private and curated, Cedar is an efficient, characterful option. Its value is in proximity to the landscape: the tent is not a flashy lodge but a place to witness the meadow and sky, to hear nocturnal birds and wake early for a ridgeway walk. Book a food hamper, bring warm layers for evenings by the fire, and be prepared to slow down — the site rewards those who leave urban speed behind and listen to the countryside. The hosts ask guests to respect livestock boundaries and local footpaths; children should be supervised near animals and the track. Reserve early for weekend stays—space is limited and popular in summer months.
