Which one suits you?
Choose a hot tub lodge or cottage if…
You want space, your own kitchen and bathroom, and a hot tub on your own deck. Homes sleep from 4 up to 10 in The Farmhouse, and several welcome dogs. See all hot tub stays.
Choose Enid's Place yurt if…
It's just the two of you and you want something special. The yurt sits in its own garden with a private hot tub, sea views and a wood-burner, plus its own kitchen and bathroom. One dog is welcome, and it's open all year. See the yurt.
Choose a bell tent if…
You want a simple night under canvas in the warmer months. Each tent has a double bed with quality bedding, towels, tea-making and a small fridge, with shared toilets, showers and washing-up a short stroll away. We have four, so friends can book more than one. See the bell tents.
