On a 9 acre private site comprising of woodland and wildflower meadow, it is just perfect for UK glamping breaks and unique stays. Fully dog friendly (with the exception of Buzzard Treehouse and Cedar Shepherd Lodge) the hideaway is surrounded by lush greenery and wildlife, and each accommodation has its own private space and a wood-fired hot tub. Dartmouth is a 10-minute drive, and you can choose between heading inland to enjoy the rural landscapes of Dartmoor National Park, or head to the coast for beaches and coast paths. The site won a bronze award for Glamping Business of the Year in 2023, in the Devon Tourism Awards. Now under new ownership and management, the new family have exciting plans for the site, so watch this space! Read the One Off Places blog about treehouses in Devon.
