Very peaceful, rustic tree lodge but cosy, warm and comfortable with everything you need for a great stay. Lovely little touches like tea, coffee, s’more’s pack, toiletries, rechargeabke lights etc, everything has been well thought through and well designed. So good having own toilet and shower with hot water. Hot tub and sauna were great. Lovely location, good cafe and lots of walks on the estate.
Nothing we loved everything! but…some people might struggle with the ladder to top bunk (tricky to get down in the dark) and low ceiling height of other bunks (watch your head!). The cabin is a bit smaller than it looks on the pictures but plenty big enough for 4 of us.

I love how peaceful sWinton bivouac is. It’s big enough for all four of us and more. Love simple way of living for a few days.
Nothing we don’t like. We love it. We know what we are getting. Everything is there.

We stayed in one of the Tree Lodges. Beautiful location and lovely bedroom layout and views. Lovely walks - children especially enjoyed the fairy walk. Sauna was fantastic!
No matches or fire lighters - we had to walk down to the Bivouac Cafe upon arrival to ask for some. Only one toilet roll for a full weekend and party of 6 - again - we had to walk down to the cafe for more. The hot tub was situated in a position that was fully overlooked by the next door tree lodge - we would recommend a screen for privacy. Not enough seating outside the lodge for party of 6. A picnic bench in front of the lodge but this was very dirty and covered in bird mess - I appreciate that the lodge is under trees and bird mess is unavoidable but this looked like it had been there for some time and it would have been good if this had been cleaned down before our arrival. Kitchen sink was very stained and taps too small to wash up effectively - we ended up using the bathroom sink for washing up. A very loud (hen party) next to us were making excessive noise which made getting children to bed very difficult. Our neighbours rang reception to complain and someone from the team came to speak to the group but they were still noisy. Perhaps not a good idea to mix hen party's and families. It would have been useful to know that the wild swimming was situated approximately 3 miles away and difficult to get to unless you have a car.
