We had such a magical weekend
We took over the entire site for our wedding weekend and it couldn't have been more perfect. The staff were so helpful and made everyone feel welcome. Oscar, Benji and Vince were so attentive making sure we had everything we needed, keeping the hot tub hot , the campfire burning and that there was plenty of fresh coffee in the mornings.
The yurts are cosy and luxurious inside and the log burner is welcome on those chilly evenings!
We had such a magical weekend and we're so sad to leave the little village of family and friends that we created. Thank you Plush for making our wedding so special.

Out of this World...
Booked a Yurt for my best friends wedding...it was a four day extravaganza, as you walk down the bark path it’s transports you into a whimsical wonderland. The location is great and is brilliantly laid out, despite not being a seasoned camper, the yurts are equipped with really comfortable beds, nice linen and towels, a USB charger and log burning stove which the more than helpful staff light before you head to bed. The crew serve teas and coffees in the morning and are always in the background ready to help out. I can not recommend this place enough for group bookings or just a quiet weekend getaway. Bathrooms were well designed, clean and maintained throughout and not too far away! Will be back!

This place is nothing short of magical!
Our wedding was simply perfection. What can I say!? The staff “Abbie & Coby” were utterly wonderful and the venue itself was rustic, environmentally friendly & honestly flawless. We will definitely be returning. Simply love everything!

I urge you to go there and try it for yourself.
We had our wedding celebration there from 28th June to 1st July 2019 and what a thoroughly excellent venue it was. The site is peaceful and tranquil and the facilities are superb. Everyone could relax and enjoy themselves and the staff were always available in the background fo help if required. We never saw any of the children all weekend because they were running around in the trees making friends with each other and playing like kids used to do. The yurts were luxurious with everything you would need for a weekend camping, all you needed to bring was your clothes and a toothbrush.
I urge you to go there and try it for yourself. I’m sure that like me you will fall in love with the place.

Plan for every weather scenario, then whatever mother nature has instore for your celebrations you are prepared and can look forward to putting those plans in action.

Haha, we love it when guests consider sustainable ways of celebrating. Upcycling and reusing materials can be a great way of saving on costs and can be incorporated in so many ways.
