  • An exclusive two persons wagon. A perfect romantic getaway
  • Set in a secluded corner of the beautiful Stock Gaylard Estate
  • No neighbours, no disturbances, just you and nature.
A beautiful and exclusive Woodsman's Wagon (bigger than a shepherds hut), perfect for those wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Sawpits Wagon is set in quiet corner of the Stock Gaylard Estate. The wagon boasts a king size bed, with plenty of indoor space including a kitchen, fold down table, bench and fridge. Outside there is a shower, basin (with mains water), decking and firepit. There is also a compost loo out the back that has been raised up to give views through the trees and over the fields looking north. Don't worry, there is a door you can shut if you would rather! Sawpits Wagon is very much secluded. There are no other campsites or houses anywhere near giving you the peace and quiet to enjoy your stay.
