The creak of a proper wooden door, the smell of fresh linen and maybe bacon drifting up from downstairs — this is old-school guesthouse hospitality, tucked away and open all year round when the weather turns.
Martel suits anyone after four walls and a comfy bed rather than canvas — couples escaping for a weekend, walkers who've earned a hot shower, or families wanting a base without the faff of tent pegs. The camping pods give you that outdoors feeling with a roof overhead, while the guesthouse rooms are proper bed-and-breakfast territory. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth asking ahead if you're travelling with a hound.
Facilities aren't listed in detail, so expect a straightforward, no-frills setup — check what's what when you arrive, including whether you can light a fire if you're in a pod. The vibe here is quiet and unshowy, the sort of place that does exactly what it says on the sign and lets the landscape do the rest.
