The space
Important : To provide better value for money we have reduced the price for groups less than 6, it is important you input the correct number of people.

Our beautifully unique site is quirky, laid back, and everything you need to escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and delve into a picturesque piece of nature. With deer, rabbits, and pheasants in such abundance you’ll struggle to hurry them out of your path. A beautiful private field with toilets, water and showers and power just for you and your guests. This site is available all year round.

Please be aware we do have other accommodations on site in their own private corners. During our wetter winter months we highly recommend wellies. As we're set in a beautiful piece of nature, boggy patches do occur.

Please Note : You'll be required to wheel barrow your belongings 90metres up a hill (its all part of the fun!)

Kitchen is equipped with a double induction hob, a small oven, fridge with small ice box and enough cook utensils for simple meals and a cracking fry up!

Bedrooms we provide ALL bedding for 6 ppl, (Duvet, Pillows) if you are using the additional sofa bunks downstairs please be aware there are no curtain downstairs nor do we provide bedding.

Toilet is located on the drivers seat of the bus, we have 3 showers a stones throw from Bertie.

Toilets & Showers on the main site are limited use during the colder months due to them being exposed to freezing. Typically November - end of March. Shower block is limited to one shower throughout winter.

We do not provide SALT, PEPPER & COOKING OIL as airbnb says we do. (We can't remove this).

Guest access
Aside from the ample space surrounding Bertie the Bus, enough for a football game, rounders, water pistol fights etc...

We also have three hot showers a stone’s throw away from Bertie, plus four more mains flushing toilets just down the hill.

Please park in the circular carpark, and use the wheelbarrows to help get your things up to Bertie, at the top right of the hill.

Please Note : You'll be required to wheel barrow your belongings 90metres up a hill (its all part of the fun!)

Other things to note
As we are set a natural valley, excessive rain recently has meant wellies are a must!
