About this property

As you enter, you will be greeted by an inviting bedroom, housing a double bed where you can drift off to the sound of nature and awaken in the morning to birdsong. The room is enhanced by candles and solar lights, adding to the rustic charm of the caravan. There is an outdoor camping kitchen, it has all you need to make a brew and prepare a hob-based meal. Tea, coffee, sugar, honey, condiments, pots, pans, cutlery, and crockery are all set out for you to use.

A utility room is also available on-site for your convenience. After a day of adventures, retreat to the sitting area, where you can curl up on the sofa, adorned with plush cushions, and warm up by the fire. The room is beautifully finished with a wood-clad ceiling, adding to the inviting, rustic feel of the caravan. A compost WC is available for your use, or a shared shower room. Step outside, where you can relax on the decking and enjoy the warmth of the chiminea. This is the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the calmness of the surrounding woodland.
