The Outdoor Spa area

In what was once a lofted barn we have created a spa area. It has a large 6-7 person electrically operated hot tub. We put fresh water in for each guest booking and adjust the water chemistry accordingly. The temperature can be adjusted up to 40 deg C and there are three jet options. The hot tub is in a thatched covered area and at night with the string lighting on is truly a magical place. There are electrical sockets available if you need to plug in your phone for music. (please don't bring any electrical items near the hot tub) Or you could simply listen to the wind chimes and the occasional shower of rain while you soak in the tub. There is a cold outdoor shower and the “bucket drop”. The bucket drop is truly an exhilarating experience. There is also a barbeque with stone seating. In the the stable next door are our two permanent residents. Two donkeys who always love a chat. Please do not feed them.
