The Oyster Catcher - a striking pair of white, canvas-clad biodomes in the midst of our expansive farmland - is the perfect spot to recharge batteries, especially for those seeking a touch of luxury on their camping trip.
The main dome has been thoughtfully furnished with a large - and very comfortable - king-size bed, snuggly duvet and wood-burning stove to keep you cosy under canvas. The second dome has been divided (by a wooden wall) into a fully-equipped kitchen and a bathroom, which has a flushing loo and freestanding bath - a wood-burning stove heats up the water for that all-important candlelit soak.
The domes are set on your own private wooden deck, which offers picture-perfect views of the charming Norfolk countryside by day and a magical display of shooting stars at night.
