Yeworthy Eco-Treehouse
Dartmoor and Devon, United Kingdom · 10.0/10 Exceptional · guest rating
An off-grid eco treehouse above a private lake in west Devon, a short drive from Dartmoor, with a log burner, a balcony, a rowing boat and a barbecue summer-house.
This is a secluded, off-grid treehouse for two rather than a hotel. The listing describes a cosy space with a double bed, a log-burning stove and a balcony with views over the trees and the lake. Cooking is basic, on a two-ring gas camp stove with pots, pans and utensils, so it suits guests who like a simple, back-to-nature stay.
Guests can use the summer-house for barbecues and a rowing boat on the private lake. The surroundings are described as quiet and wooded, with birds and deer for company, and dogs are welcome. Free parking is listed. The same property may appear under another name online, and only a few details are given, so confirm facilities, bathroom arrangements and access with the host.
