Weekend Trip to Gilestone Glamping

We stayed for Easter weekend. The location was perfect for walking into the village, or the canal for paddleboarding and near some lovely walks. The tent itself felt cosy and the real beds were quite luxurious, as was the hot shower. Fabulous, friendly and helpful hosts! Thank you!
