Sleeps 6 | dog friendly
From £113 per night
Safari tent in Cornwall with a hot tub and use of a sauna: a spacious family-friendly retreat with breathtaking views of the ocean and the iconic St Michael's Mount.
Overview
Step Inside
The moment you step up onto the deck and get a glimpse through the canvas doors, you’ll see that Mount View Horizon is as special inside as it is out. In the open plan layout you’ll find rustic, country interiors and ample living space, including a comfy sofa and a wood-fired range, so you’ll be cosy and warm whatever the weather. The kitchen area features an electric hob, microwave and full-sized fridge with a small freezer - everything you need to prepare a picnic or a hearty meal to enjoy at the family-size dining table. There are two bedrooms (a double and a twin) as well as a charming double cabin bed, providing comfortable sleeping space for up to six. At the far end of the tent there’s a modern en suite shower room to freshen up after a day of exploring and wild swimming, with a heated towel rail for an extra little bit of luxury. The retreat is also kitted out with wifi.
Outdoors
Outside, there’s plenty of space for you to relax and for the children to play. Settle into a chair on the decking and enjoy the breathtaking views while you sip your morning coffee. Or lie back in the hammock and soak up some sunshine while the children let off steam in the play area, complete with trampoline, climbing frame, football goals and volleyball net. As the evening draws in and the sun starts to set, unwind in the hot tub and watch the sky turn shades of pink and orange or wander up the field for a soul-warming steam in the sauna (one-hour slots are bookable through the owner) or refreshing dip in the plunge barrel. And before bed, light up the fire pit, huddle round and toast marshmallows together in this magical setting under the stars.
