Camp Kátur

• Sleeps: 76 (full site)
• Bedrooms: Varies
• Bathrooms: All ensuite
• Minimum stay: 2 nights

Perfectly positioned at the gateway to the Yorkshire Moors, Camp Kátur promises to restore your happiness (Kátur is Icelandic for “happy”, after all) by reconnecting you with the simple joys of nature.

Consisting of eco-lodges and geodomes, all with their own far-reaching views, it will be impossible not to fall in love with the Great Outdoors, all over again.

If you’re into serious stargazing, it’s Hill Farm you’ll want to head for. Home to a selection of transparent ceiling geodomes, some with hot tubs, each one aligned to the clear, dark skies and boasting views over the Vale of Mowbray, you’ll be in celestial heaven.

With 10 Hill Farm Geodomes, each sleeping groups of four, each geodome is equipped with crackling log burners and electricity, and is individually named after a star of the night sky – perfect for a group booking of 40 guests.

For smaller groups, head to Chestnut Lodge, sleeping 24 guests within four sleeping cabins, indoor and outdoor breakout spaces, not to mention a hot-tub and woodfired sauna, there’s plenty of spaces for a morning huddle, or to regroup as a team.

Sleeping a total of 76 guests, the entire site is available for group bookings, festivals, weddings and corporate events, with a large offering of activities available on request.

Chestnut Hill boasts two luxurious geodomes, each with their own integral kitchen, sunken hot tub and ensuite facilities, set on the top of a knoll that showcases amazing views over the camp’s wildlife hotspot.

More information

It’s here that you’ll also discover Chestnut Lodge, the perfect large-group woodland retreat that sleeps up to 24 guests in four gorgeous cabins… including a central log cabin with a kitchen and cosy lounge space for epic socialising (when you’re not lazing on the veranda, reclining in the woodfired sauna, relaxing in the Siberian spruce eco hot tub, or huddled around the firepit, that is!)

Finally, just off Chestnut Hill awaits the magnificent Lyra, the newest addition and the first retreat of its kind in the UK.  A luxurious two-bedroom Lodge, Lyra boasts enormous wrap around portrait windows, underfloor heating, ensuite facilities, and a wood-fired eco hot tub under the forest canopy on your expansive deck… bliss!  The master bedroom even features its own private deck area; ideal for easing into the day with a steaming coffee.

Once you’ve chosen your ideal accommodation, it’s onto indulging in your ideal activities. There’s a Swing Park and a Woodland Kingdom children’s area for the little ones to let off some steam, along with winding forest walks and pathways for everyone explore to their hearts’ content.

You could also arrange a dedicated on-site workshop, all especially chosen to make the most of the stunning Yorkshire landscape.  Choose from den building, wild cooking, bushcraft, or fun evening games followed by marshmallows and hot chocolate around the firepit… utter bliss!
