Hidden away in a woodland valley and neighbouring a fresh, spring-fed lake, Cornwall Tipi Holidays features 20 North American style tipis, all with spacious interior and situated less than 2 miles from the coast. Inside, the décor has a simple bohemian touch with warm Turkish rugs and candlelit lanterns. Spend your days in the peace and quiet, go boating at the lake and gather round the fire at night telling stories and enjoying some freshly cooked food. Explore nearby towns such as Port Isaac and you’ll come back refreshed and appreciating the simplest of pleasures.
In the heart of Pembrokeshire National Park, resides Fishguard Bay Resort which offers accommodation options from cute glamping pods to luxury lodges. Escape the daily stresses and be greeted every morning with spectacular views of the gorgeous Pembrokeshire coast. There’s lots of wildlife to be spotted and if you want a closer look, you can even take a tour to see the dolphins. There are plenty of coastal walks to enjoy too, furry friends are welcome at the resort and Newport is not far away for a day out exploring.
If you’re looking for a base to explore Woolacombe Bay in Devon, look no further than Ilfracombe Farm. Stay in a cosy canvas lodge on a traditional English farm.

In the evening, you can make your own pizzas with the farmers in their traditional pizza oven and Ilfracombe is only a 5-minute drive away for restaurants, bars and arguably some of the best fish and chips around.
