Accessed via a long boardwalk through the evergreen laurel trees and with stunning views of the surrounding countryside, this is the perfect spot to reconnect with nature. The estate is run with a focus on rewilding and regenerative farming and this ethos is reflected in the design of the treehouse.

There's a swimming club located at Madam's Pond on the estate at certain times of the year, where you can take a refreshing dip surrounded by nature. Venture a little further and head to Gloucester for the day to explore the stunning cathedral or head to the medieval Berkeley Castle to learn more about the area's history.
