Described by some as 'redefining luxury', this unique holiday residence has combined modern technology with an eco-friendly ethos. The Hide, and nearby Haven, have been specifically designed to blur the boundaries between living area and nature. Huge expanses of glass used in their architecture positively invite guests to explore nature and allow the magnificent external surroundings to be as much a part of the luxury experience as the exacting attention to detail internally. In a nutshell, simple, elegant and exemplary quality.
The collection of eco retreats is run by our friends at Natural Retreats and we have two retreats specifically designated for our Country Retreats guests, the Hide and the Haven. If you are looking to make a group booking and perhaps need more than two retreats, just give us a call and we will see what we can do for and will work out a special price for your party

- Please note that some of the residences have parking close by and some have a little walk. The approach to the residences from the main road, is along a narrow track which you may find a bit unsuitable for sports cars or other low vehicles. Most vehicles will be fine and if you have a 4 wheel drive, you will have no problems, whatever the weather!
