General
- Off-grid forest cabin with exclusive use of lake and private woodland
- Only ever let to one group at a time, so privacy is assured
- Dog-friendly site and ideal for fishing
This exclusive site is deep in the 23,000-hectare Double Forest, made up of a 1.5-hectare fishing lake in 15 hectares of private woodland. The owners only ever let to one group at a time so privacy is assured and guests are able to fully enjoy the peace and seclusion.
The cabin sleeps two to three: additional members of your group are welcome to camp. The property is dog-friendly and there is plenty of room to exercise your pet.
The lake in contrast to the area is well populated and the woodland is home to a variety of wildlife.
Please remember that the cabin sleeps only two to three people. Additional guests can pitch up their own tent outside the cabin or hire them from the campsite. Maximum two tents permitted.

Check availability at Cuckoo Lake…
Many sites set a maximum occupancy of 6/8 people per pitch, so try breaking your booking down into smaller groups to generate more results. For example, if you’re a group of 10, enter 5 people in your initial search and then book 2 pitches.
However, where the pitch or accommodation occupancy allows it, you can make a booking for up to 30 adults and 30 children in one booking.
To book multiple pitches or accommodation, use the 'Special requests' box on the booking page to ask to be sited together. Complete the booking form for the first booking (you can add a password and save your card so that we remember your details). Then click "Make another booking like this" at the top of the confirmation page to make the next booking.
Large groups: check the listing page for any group restrictions set out in the terms and section titled ‘Please note’.
Large tents/caravans: check the restrictions on unit dimensions to ensure your unit is suitable for the space you will be provided with.
