Why Choose Fernwood for Your Forest Getaway?
Immerse Yourself in a Unique Forest Experience
Fernwood Farm is situated within a rare temperate rainforest and is involved in the Native Woodland Conservation Scheme. This programme allows us to protect and nurture the woodland, ensuring it thrives for generations to come. Our Guests can explore 2 kilometres of private woodland trails, designed to fully immerse you in the experience of our magic woodland accommodation. Wander under ancient trees, listen to the dawn chorus, and let the vibrant seasonal colours refresh your soul.
Luxury Meets Sustainability in Forest Accommodation
At Fernwood, our forest cabins are as extraordinary as their surroundings:
- The Treehouse Dome: Set amidst the trees, this retreat immerses you in the sounds and sights of the forest. Wake up to birdsong, hear the gushing stream during wintertime, and marvel at the ever-changing colours of the foliage, all with the added luxury of a wood burning stove and lashings of hot water in your shower.
- The Stilt House: Elevated above the woodland floor, this luxury forest retreat features a private Swedish bath, offering a perfect mix of relaxation and indulgence.
Both accommodations are thoughtfully designed to combine eco-conscious living with unparalleled comfort. From sustainably sourced timber to renewable energy systems like solar PV panels and micro-hydro turbines, every detail reflects our commitment to sustainability.
