The Bivouac at Druid*s Temple

The Bivouac at Druids Temple is focused on accommodation that is austere, rugged, hot, characterful and sensitive to our environments which are normal. We offered a luxury that is small in with plenty of attention to detail to produce a warm, comfortable and, above all, easy environment so that you can enjoy your visit to. Situated just a couple of kilometers from Masham, regarding the edge of the moors, the Bivouac provides accommodation in luxury Tree Lodges, Yurts and a Bunk Barn, and day visitors are also welcome to enjoy the caf and take a walk into the forests surrounding the Druids Temple, an eighteenth Century folly with standing rock groups and features throughout the woodland, with views throughout the Dales and Leighton Reservoir.Fanned out in the fringes of our woodland hilltop are our six luxury Tree Lodges, which were hand built by people of this winning Grand Designs team, using the round timber design timber that is(using from the surrounding Swinton Estate and wool insulation sourced from Cumbria). These rest seven on a bunk that is triple therefore ideally fitted to a sizable household or two partners. There was an plan that is open area with wood burner, home and dining area, a shower and WC, and a sizable verandah to take the sweeping views of the Yorkshire Dales. The Tree Lodgesare completely self-sufficient in that the lumber burner heats the space, has an oven and hotplate for cooking, and also heats water that is hot the bath. A walk that is brief the hill may be the converted barn complex with reception, shop, bunk barn (sleeping 12), caf and shower/WC unit. Each sleeping four, with hand made beds and comfortable furnishings, a wood burner and sink within the adjoining field, you will find eight yurts. Our guests can retreat, enjoy reflection that is quiet snuggle down with a good guide or participate in more energetic activities such as climbing, falconry, pony trekking, foraging or fly fishing. From long walks across crazy moorland to a cup of tea and copious levels of cake within our caf, we think that life can really be provided and just. Our eco qualifications are unrivalled, with forestry thinnings from the Swinton Estate employed for all our logs and wood chip, a carbon basic woodchip boiler, spring fed water, and a grey water system and reed bed for the site that is entire. There's absolutely no electricity in either the Tree Lodgesor Yurts (but you will find charging you sockets offered at reception).
