The space
A simple Bothy with a rustic feel. Everything you need for a weekend get away with a difference!! With its own private sauna, the perfect way to unwind and relax after a hard day's walk on the fells! Fitted with a woodburner also will keep you cosy.
A quirky mezzanine platform has a nice view of the fields and sheep and you'll sleep well on a platform bed with super comfy king size mattress. Below is small double futon bed which can act as a sofa also. Plenty of blankets are provided also. We recommend that you bring warm clothing and slippers. Bothies are traditionally stone or wooden buildings located in the mountains to provide a shelter. Although this is a Fell side bothy it is still built the traditional way out of stone. You do have to pop out briefly to access the toilet, shower and Sauna room. It's a great place if you enjoy camping/glamping!! Fitted also with TV, WiFi and a very simple kitchen.
We look forward to seeing you soon :)
