🍂 Autumn adventures are even better when your best friend can come too… 🐾

Picture the two of you wandering through the golden woodland of the National Forest, lake views stretching out beside you and your dog happily by your side. Then it’s back to your cosy lodge for a soak beneath the evening sky in your own undercover hot tub. ♨️

Choose from our dog-friendly lodges:

🐾 Spindle – dog-friendly with a dartboard and lake views
🐾 Maple – dog-friendly with a dartboard and lake views
🐾 Oak – dog-friendly with a pool table and lake views

After your autumn walk, challenge each other to a game, pour a glass of something lovely and settle into a peaceful adults-only escape, with your dog very much welcome to enjoy it too. ❤️

Switch off… properly. 🌿

No notifications. No to-do list. Just the two of you, the lake and your own undercover hot tub.

Start slowly with coffee and quiet lake views, spend the afternoon wandering through the National Forest as autumn begins to colour the trees, then return to your cosy lodge for an evening soak beneath the sky. Let the steam rise, the lights glow and the outside world wait.

A little less noise. A little more time together. Because sometimes the best break is the one where you truly switch off.
