The IDEAL ESCAPE for COUPLE. Why settle for a boring hotel? Experience the rustic charm and lakeside setting of Moorhen's Rest for yourself. Step inside our cozy Shepherds Hut and be greeted by comfy double bed with soft velvet bedding; (we always get compliments on this bedding and have had guests ask where it is from, so they can buy it for their own homes!) a bespoke coffee and tea unit, mini fridge, breakfast table, wood-fired log burner to ensure you're always warm and toasty, plus 'old school' DVD collection for the TV. But wait, there's more! Moorhen's Rest also boasts a separate, rustic outbuilding with floor to ceiling windows that gives you a stunning view of the lake no matter what the weather. Inside, there's a well equipped kitchen with microwave oven / gas hob, fridge and all of the utensil, crockery, cutlery you'll need, plus a comfy lounge area with another wood-fired burner. We provide tea, coffee, sugar and milk. A further shack next to the Shepherd's Hut, which is accessed via raised decking, provides your own private toilet and shower room. But the fun doesn't stop there! Moorhen's Rest also comes with its own wood-fired hot tub, nestled under the trees, giving you the perfect excuse to sit back and enjoy the beautiful view of the lake or watch the Moorhens going about their daily business. You'll receive a complimentary wheelbarrow of logs to keep you warm and toasty, but more can be purchased from us during your stay if you need (this cabin does have a total of four fires, so depending on what your plans are, you may use quite a lot!). We do only allow logs to be purchased from us, as we use a local firm which is HETAS accredited and limits the smoke on site. Logs are £17 per wheelbarrow, or £9 for a sack. And, if that wasn't enough to hook you in, you'll also get FREE fishing for each

We stayed in the Treecreepers Rest and it was amazing. I couldn't recommend it more, the guys who owned the place we're really friendly and helpful, super child friendly (we have 3 under 5!) and the toilets and bathroom were clean and well set up. The facilities of the sleeping areas its self was faultless. I hope to visit again.
