- 6 Roundhouses
- Perfect for Families
A ten-minute drive inland from the coast of North Cornwall, close to the wild coastline north of Bude, and the beaches at Duckpool and Morwenstow, East Thorne is a beautifully located glamping retreat. Convenient for the coast but far enough away amid gorgeous countryside, it can't help but be relaxing – a neat little gathering of roundhouse that's super-organized yet also super-chilled. Sip wine on your deck and watch children run around on the green, car-free space. Leave a message on the chalkboard and a fresh basket of wood will be delivered for your wood-burner. Order a gourmet hamper and settle down for a dinner of seasonal street food offerings... Life in the West Country doesn't get much better.
The six luxurious Roundhouses are designed with a nod to the traditional yurt structure – with a central roof-light, wood-burning stove and a circular layout – but with the very highest levels of luxury: wooden floors, handmade double beds, armchairs and coffee machines, a full-equipped kitchen, as well as a plush en-suite bathroom and your own private hot tub outside. All the roundhouses are suitable for for two, but Cynefin and the Secret Roundhouses are exclusively designed with couples in mind, ith their own private gardens, while the rest sleep up to 6 people each.
The roundhouses are all well spaced out in their own area, and there's enough space for every structure to have its own private spot, while covered dining areas and a grassy space for ball games allows for a sociable atmosphere. Children leave with grass stains on their knees and the smell of campfire smoke in their jumpers. You wouldn't want it any other way.
