The scent of pine and the soft creak of timber greet you before you've even turned the key — this is cabin life, proper and simple.

Cabin 5 offers both chalets and camping pods, so whether you're after four walls and a bit more space or the cosy snugness of a pod, there's a pitch to suit. It's a solid choice for couples wanting a quieter escape or small families testing the glamping waters without committing to canvas. Dogs may be welcome — worth asking when you book — so walkers with a faithful companion in tow should get in touch before assuming.

Facilities aren't listed in detail, so it's one to contact directly if you need specifics about what's onsite. Campfires are a check-on-arrival situation, which usually means they're possible but depend on conditions or pitch — bring the kindling and ask on the day. Expect a low-key, back-to-basics vibe with a roof over your head and not much fuss beyond that.
