Fern Leaf Roundhouse, East Thorne, Bude

About this property

Fern Leaf Roundhouse is the perfect retreat for couples looking for time away from the hustle and bustle or a family wanting an adventurous break with a sprinkling of luxury.

You’ll feel a million miles away from everyday life when you step inside your little corner of Cornish heaven. This is glamping, but not as you know it. The open plan space feels light and airy and there’s a flickering wood burning stove to snuggle up in front of on cooler nights. Don’t forget to look up to see the porthole in the roof where you can lay back and watch the stars on a clear night.

Little touches of luxury dotted around the Roundhouse will make you feel instantly at home, underfloor heating and en suite bathroom. The star of the show has to be the inviting hot tub, where you can relax in the bubbles after an evening telling stories around the communal camp fire.

East Thorne is a peaceful glamping resort just a short drive from Bude, where you’ll find sandy beaches and wonderful seaside charm. If you prefer to stay close to your home from home, you can spend a lazy day relaxing in the communal garden whilst enjoying a picnic or if you have the kids with you, the volleyball net provides hours of fun and the games room is the perfect place for family time and making new friends.
