The morning sun filters through pine branches onto timber walls still cool from the night—this is proper cabin country, where you wake under a solid roof but still feel properly away.

B5 offers glamping chalets and camping pods for those who want a wilder sleep without quite roughing it canvas-style. It's a good middle ground if you're testing the camping waters with kids, escaping for a cosy couples' break, or simply prefer four walls and a door that locks when the wind picks up. Dogs may be welcome—worth asking when you book if you're bringing yours along.

Onsite facilities aren't specified, so it's best to check what's provided before you pack. Campfires are one to confirm on arrival—there may be a firepit or communal spot, but don't assume. The vibe here leans toward self-contained comfort rather than full hook-up luxury or back-to-basics canvas. Expect timber, quiet, and a little more shelter than a tent affords—ideal if the forecast's uncertain or you're after a slower, simpler sort of stay.
