Lovely!
What a beautiful glamping set up! The tent was fantastic, as clean as can be and the bed was incredibly comfortable. The dining tent set up was amazing. Our site was private and we really enjoyed the peace. There was a really nice barn area with tables and chairs and it was a nice place to lounge. The outdoor showers were great. Our site did not have a structure around the toilet, I believe it was the only outhouse on the grounds with no “house”. That part we didn’t love. Otherwise we would absolutely come back!
