Activities at Plush Huts
Walking - Linking into the local footpath network, we are ideally placed to explore and discover local pubs and attractions. Don’t worry if your dog gets a bid muddy. We have a warm outside tap and dog wash area!
Biking - Bring your own bike to explore further afield, or you are welcome to borrow one of ours. We also have an area to store your bike's safety overnight.
Fishing - We have a pond adjacent to the Huts, stocked with Carp and Roach. Why not sit and while away the day, relaxing and fishing.
Wildlife & Bird Spotting – There are plenty of friendly animals that visit the huts, including a friendly Kingfisher. Be careful of the beehives a short distance away. Heather makes her own honey!
Private gardens – Each hut has its own garden, to be enjoyed by you and your company. Complete with wildflowers, seats and a Chimenea, complete with logs.
The ‘Mini’ Bar – The bar and its stools were made by Andrew for socialising and enjoying a couple of drinks in the evening.
Hut tub – Step out of your plush hut and into the communal hot tub. Perfect for keeping warm in the early evenings, enjoying the countryside views and stargazing.
Don’t forget your hut! – Part of the experience is simply sitting back and relaxing, enjoying the home comforts, cosy surroundings and incredible views.
