Unforgettable Escapes
immerse yourself in the woodland wonder of honeydown, where anyone and everyone can explore or be still and let nature work its magic.
indulge in our handcrafted wooden domes, lovingly known as ‘truffles’. each truffle is a snug nest on the woodland floor sheltered by oak trees. cosy comfort and time out; a romantic hideout for two adults or bring up to two children for family fun.
unwind under the curved ceiling, snuggle by the wood- burning stove with your book, hang in the hammock listening to the trees. wander the woodland, spot wildlife, breath, and enjoy al fresco feasting.
How many people does a 'Truffle' cater for?
each truffle comfortably accommodates two adults, with indoor and outdoor spaces to eat, play and rest. there is space for two children to join – when bringing young guests be mindful that honeydown is a natural environment with areas of prickly fauna and wobbly fallen branches – a place for curious minds to explore, listen for woodpeckers and hunt deer poop, but with care and caution.
what cooking facilities are on site?
our site offers a range of facilities for your comfort and convenience. each truffle has an outdoor space with an aquaforno (a nifty bbq and pizza oven) and a small gas hob. you also have a private kitchen prep area a short walk from your truffle, with sink, fridge and plug socket.
do we have our own bathroom?
you will have your own private bathroom a short walk from your truffle. each bathroom has a proper flushing loo and hot shower. eco toiletries and towels are provided.
do you allow pets at honeydown?
we kindly ask that you do not bring dogs (or other pets) to our site, as it is not suitable for our furry friends. we want to ensure a peaceful and safe environment for all guests. thank you for your understanding.
do we need to bring anything for a stay?
we recommend bringing wellies if you plan to explore the woodland. the truffles are off-grid with battery powered lighting inside and around your outdoor eating area only – the pathways are not lit so bring a torch for late-night returns. there is power at the cabin where you can charge devices. you will find all the pans and utensils you need to make a basic meal. you can order a hamper of local food goodies for your arrival (details emailed after booking). each truffle has a wood-burning stove but bring along your slippers and warm clothing in the chillier seasons for when the fire goes out.
