The properties are single-storey, making them accessible and convenient for all guests.
Situated on a working farm, the Eco Retreats boast breathtaking views of Bulbarrow and The Blackmore Vale, enhancing the serene ambiance of the location. The Wessex Ridgeway, a renowned walking route, is right at the doorstep, offering endless opportunities for exploration and adventure. Guests can leisurely stroll to the nearby village of Ansty, which is approximately a 15-minute walk or a quick 3-minute drive away, where they can find a charming farm shop, a post office, and a local pub for further relaxation and enjoyment.
For those interested in reserving their stay, each eco retreat can be booked individually, allowing flexibility based on availability. Bracken and Fern each accommodate six guests, while Bramble is perfect for an additional four guests. This arrangement ensures that visitors can tailor their experience to suit their specific needs, whether they prefer the entire collection for a large gathering or individual retreats for smaller groups.
