Caravan Description

Would you like no other caravans or houses which overlook you? …and would you like to be right next to a pool with a natural fountain and 50 metres from a second pool with waterfalls, on the edge of a 2 acre forest? Then our caravan is for you!

The caravan has an average review score of 4.8 out of 5 form 28 reviews on Vrbo. ("Excellent")
But don’t book via Vrbo which will be a higher price.

For 7 nights, only £38 per night in winter and £56 per night in July/August. Shorter stays allowed.

You also have the option of a lower cost 2 berth caravan (both out of view of each other) with exclusive sitting area, sun loungers and late morning /afternoon sun. It has ramp and hand rail entry. I can email full details.

Set in a large, 2 acre, sheltered and secluded garden and natural woodland, with babbling streams feeding 5 delightful pools, and a 6m waterfall that can be floodlit after dark.

Are you booking for May - September? Here you can escape any heat wave!
In HOT weather, temperatures are 4-5 degrees lower on the decking under the parasol
and 7 degrees lower on the always-shaded waterfalls pool bench. (compared with the nearest village)
This is due to the elevation of 300 metres and the microclimate created by dense forest with 5 pools.
Also, a VERY quiet, 3 speed oscillating fan is available.

The garden has many paths, 10 benches, 4 swinging benches, a huge hammock designed for 2 people available in Summer, and hanging chairs positioned for inspiring views of the trees, pools and utterly serene views over thickly wooded valleys and rolling green hills.

You can walk directly onto the hills from the top of the garden and enjoy wonderful panoramic views. Or you can choose more level walks from the lane, passing rare breeds of sheep and angora goats.

The sky is regularly decorated with the aerial acrobatics of buzzards, and sometimes red kites or swallows. In fact, you can hear and see many bird species from only 2.5m away as they visit bird feeders that hang near the decking area.

The decking area has an attractive table and 4 comfortable chairs, capturing the early and mid-morning sun. The decking is only 3m from the lower pool with natural fountain, and bench right next to it.

There is a Summer house extension to the decking. This offers you:
Huge door and side windows with views of the waterfalls and lowest pool with fountain
Warmth in colder weather with fan heater
Cool on hot days because in the shade after 1 p.m.
Before 1 p.m., no sunburn from the sun
Shelter from rain
Bright LED floodlight for evenings
4 mains sockets
Large table
3 shelves
Storage for items not wanted inside the caravan with 8 hooks for outer clothing and long shoe rack

From the side windows and decking area, you look out onto the lowest pool and stream only 4m away, with a natural fountain, which can be floodlighted at night.

There is a chiminea next to the bench by the pool. (Bring your own wood/fuel)

From the 3 main windows in the lounge area, you have a view uphill of the upper half of the 6m high waterfalls into the pool above (which can also be flood-lit after dark), and also into the very mature forest. The sound from the waterfalls is virtually inaudible inside the caravan with the windows closed. It is just 10m to walk to the bench or double hammock directly in front of the pool and waterfalls.

The accommodation is strictly for non-smokers, but can be agreed for those who only smoke outside.

If you are over 6' 0" tall (1.83 metres), you may not be comfortable with the ceiling height of 6’ 1”.

There is parking space right next to the caravan for 2 cars.

The caravan benefits from heating using a highly sensitive thermostat, with separate fan heater in the bathroom.

The foam rubber in the bedding has just been replaced with premium quality, and memory foam toppers are available.

The caravan sleeps 3 comfortably, or 2 adults and 2 children by arrangement only, but scroll down to the end for extra sleeping facilities.
There are 2 sleeping areas but not a separate bedroom.

The double bed size is 2m x 1.43ms (6' 7" x 4' 10"). Alternatively, the size of the 2 single beds is 1.83m x 0.7m (6' 0" x 2' 3"). The 2 bunk beds measure 1.78m x 0.56m (5' 10" x 1' 10").
The lower or upper and lower bunk beds can be curtained off.

There are separate compartments for the shower, heated with blown warm air, and the toilet and washroom, which has a drying rack for wet clothes.

Don’t like “caravan-type” toilets with minimal flushing and waste tank below?
You can reserve the large “luxury toilet tent” nearby, with normal, flushing toilet,
as well as washbasin, hand-held bidet system and motion-sensing light.

This is about 140 metres from the caravan
across slightly sloping and uneven paths, so may not suit those with mobility problems.

You can use this toilet exclusively or whenever it suits you. (as it’s not ideal if dark or pouring with rain).

Good quality TV with 145 stations and DVD player.

Internet connection available, either Wi-Fi or wired.

Facilities within the caravan include: Electric shaving point, plus mains sockets; Radio and CD/cassette player; TV; completely silent heating; Microwave oven as well as gas oven; Toaster; Flyscreens on all windows and skylight; Close-fitting roller blinds on all windows, as well as curtains; 4 Bright reading spotlights; Very bright up-lighting; Smoke alarm; Gas and carbon monoxide alarm; Metered electricity usage; Free bottled gas for the cooker; Free Bedding, Toilet paper and washing up liquid; full-size fridge freezer outside as well as small inside fridge; separate shower and toilet compartments.

There is a strong interior bolt on the door and an outside washing line for hanging wet clothes.

Open all year.
