Set within a 350-hectare protected conservation area, each beautifully appointed pod sleeps four and features a wood-fired hot tub, spectacular views and every modern comfort. Wake to birdsong, explore the river by kayak, relax beneath endless stars and discover why guests have described their stay as peaceful, luxurious and the perfect place to reconnect with nature.
