The smell of breakfast drifting upstairs and the creak of a proper wooden staircase — this is old-school guest house hospitality with a side of outdoor sleeping for those who fancy it.
Avarest offers both traditional guest house rooms and camping pods, so you can pick your comfort level depending on the weather or your mood. It's a handy setup for groups with mixed preferences, or anyone who wants a soft landing after a long drive before properly camping elsewhere. Dogs are worth asking about if you're travelling with one, and campfires need checking when you arrive — house rules vary depending on conditions and where you're pitched.
Year-round opening means it's there when you need it, winter walkers included. Expect the basics done well: a roof or a pod, a proper bed, and someone to ask about the local area. The vibe sits somewhere between B&B and campsite — more personal than a hotel, more sheltered than a field.
