Book a private yoga session or a reiki relaxation. Allow your whole body to be nourished. Bespoke, cozy cabin in amongst nature, steps into the space. Choose a queen or two single beds. Sleeps 2 adults, or 1 adult and 2 children. The cabin has a kettle and toaster as well as plates/cutlery etc. There is a small seating area and storage unit, plus outdoor table and chairs. Short walking distance to the toilet/bathroom facilities and kitchen in the house. Option to cook outside if weather is good on a two-burner gas hob.
