A fourteen-minute drive from the striking shores of the Hartland Heritage Coast, this rural escape really puts the ‘treat’ in retreat. It’s impossible not to be charmed by this wooden roundhouse in East Thorne. Its cylindrical design and delightful gardens bring a magical vibe that's sure to start off your holiday with a smile. Step inside to find a gorgeous wood-beamed ceiling and wood-burning stove in the main living space. While this hearth is the perfect setting for cosying up together on chilly evenings, there are even more activities for sunny days. Your private, outdoor area is spectacular – play games on the lawn, savour alfresco lunches on the picnic bench, grill up dinner on the barbecue, set up a campfire, and (best of all) soak in the hot tub under the stars all night. We think a glass of champagne wouldn’t go amiss in this luxury setting. When you’ve spent enough time in the tub, head inside to lie back on the sumptuous bed and look up – find yet another stargazing spot via the ceiling porthole. Keep your eyes peeled for shooting stars.
