Design

Designed by the team behind Skoolie Stays, The Vacationist follows a similar design ethos, balancing luxury, freedom and environmental impact to create a space that is sensitive to its surroundings, full of clever design ideas and a joy to relax in.

Sustainability

Going green does not mean compromising on standards. Solar power, hi-tech devices, sheep’s wool insulation and a green roof mean you can still use devices, keep cosy and warm, enjoy hot showers and cook dinner with minimal impact on the planet.

BEST OF BOTH WORLDS​

Enjoy a campfire, sit under the stars, listen to the birds and explore the great outdoors. Then retire to your spacious cabin, sink into the sofa to enjoy the log burning stove, have a hot shower and sleep in a comfortable bed. This is glamping at its best.
