The scent of pine resin hangs faint in the air — a quiet nod to the site's timber-mill past, now softened into something gentler.
Old Sawmill suits couples after a cosy retreat or small families wanting proper walls and a door that locks, with camping pods and chalets offering shelter whatever the weather throws at you. Dogs may be welcome depending on the pod or chalet you choose, so worth asking when you book. It's the sort of place that works for first-time campers testing the waters or anyone who loves the outdoors but values a solid roof and a bit of creature comfort when the rain rolls in.
Facilities aren't listed in detail, so expect a more low-key, self-contained stay — check what's included with your specific accommodation when you arrive. Campfires are a possibility but you'll need to ask on the day. The vibe leans peaceful and unpretentious, the kind of spot where you unpack, settle in, and let the quiet do its work.
