Liked: We have just returned from 2 nights at Dukeries Retreat and it was amazing! 😍 we got a very warm welcome from Michael upon arrival, the bell tents, site and private toilet are immaculate! There was everything you could possibly need here for a relaxing get away. Bbq, private hot tub, bar area with your own fridge and all kitchen utensils. There is a games room where you can borrow outdoor games to take around to your tent. There’s a communal kitchen area for any overflow you may have. Seating area is available outside your tent or if there’s a group of you there’s large spaces with outdoor pizza ovens. We stayed here with our two young children aged 4 and 7, we felt relaxed enough to let them run through the fields, it was all secure and gated up & you could watch them at all times. The views are amazing, local shops, village and town are all within a 5/10 minute car ride. We would highly recommend the Dukeries retreat, and will most defiantly return 🙂
