The scent of a proper cooked breakfast drifts through the hallways of this year-round guest house, where the kettle's always on and the welcome feels genuine rather than packaged.

Magnolia House suits couples after a comfortable base, walkers who've outgrown damp tents, or anyone fancying a night under a roof without sacrificing that sense of escape. There's a camping pod option if you want something in between four walls and canvas, though you'll need to ask ahead about bringing the dog — policies vary. It's the sort of place where you get a proper bed, a bit of peace, and none of the corporate hotel nonsense.

Facilities aren't spelled out in detail, so it's worth ringing to confirm what's onsite beyond the essentials. Campfires might be allowed — check when you arrive, as it'll depend on conditions and where you're pitched. The vibe's low-key and personal, more about a good night's kip and a decent start to the day than bells and whistles. Open all year, so it's there when the weather turns and you need somewhere solid.
