Our read

The landscape does the work, and it stays small enough to feel like a house rather than a hotel.

Come here for

  • Small groups and solo travellers who dislike crowds
  • Wildlife and landscape first, comfort second
  • Sleeping outdoors without giving up a real bed
  • Walking every day and sleeping hard

Skip it if

  • You want resort scale, with several restaurants and a crowd to disappear into
  • Early starts and long drives are not your idea of rest

We’d rather send you somewhere else than send you somewhere that doesn’t suit you.
