Exceptional care is taken with the environment and surrounding land, and with spectacular countryside scenery and stunning views up to Tennyson Down all around you, it won’t be long before you’ve forgotten all about your hectic life back home!

Simply choose from a selection of thoughtfully-crafted living spaces that include adventurous Safari tents, spacious wood cabins, cosy pods, innovative Modulogs, and brand new Dome Meadow.

The eco pods, each one sleeping up to four people and incorporating stunning western sea landscape views, provide a wonderful setting for a romantic getaway.  With their friendly open-plan design, you’ll find a built-in double bed, with a pull-out sofa bed for two more guests if needed.  There’s a well-equipped kitchenette, a private shower room with hot running water and flushing WC…plus a private barbecue and picnic bench for lazy al-fresco dining. You’ll find you’re in the perfect place to enjoy the sun setting delicately over the horizon!

For those seeking a more adventurous living space (whilst not missing out on a shred of luxury, of course!) the Safari tents are ideal for larger groups of up to 8 people. Generously furnished, you’ll find a cosy log burning cooker, private bathroom and WC, and well-furnished bedrooms. The tents even include free WiFi and electricity so you can make your Instagram followers suitably envious!

You’ll find plenty of outdoor space for the kids – whether large or small! – to play on, and decking to enjoy the invigorating outdoor air, equipped with a coffee…or a glass of wine. There’s a games compendium to keep everyone entertained well into the evenings, and oh – why not select a tent with its very own wood-fired hot tub for that extra touch of luxury?

If you prefer a more authentic woodland living space, the wood cabins are just the ticket! Fully insulated to keep you toasty whatever the weather, each cabin sleeps up to 8 people on a double bed, one twin and two bunk beds – ideal for a family-sized group adventure!
