Honeycrisp, Apple Tree Glamping Wells, Somerset

Honeycrisp’s contemporary design creates a really gorgeous space for relaxing breaks away with a loved one, and features an outside deck with wood-fired hot tub, as well as furniture and a firepit / barbecue for fresh air dining. A sprawling lawn to the front of the pods rolls down towards the River Axe, so if you like to start the morning with a dip in the hot tub you’ll be hard pressed to find a more idyllic setting for it. Inside, there’s plenty of space to get comfy in, with a lounge area and TV, dining nook, thoughtfully-equipped kitchenette, shower room and bedroom.

Just a 10 minute walk away, the Pheasant Pub (a favourite in the area) is a terrific place to while an afternoon or two away with good food and drink, or for those who don’t mind a short drive, The Ring O’Bells and The Burcott are also close by. A wealth of nature-infused attractions such as Wookey Caves (about 8 minutes’ drive), Cheddar Gorge, and Kilver Court and Gardens (both about 20 minutes) lie within easy reach, while Wells with its cathedral, shopping, restaurants and heritage sites, is the perfect day out. There are also several good beaches in the area including Burnham-on-Sea (with Britain’s shortest pier) which is about 30 minutes’ drive away, and the pebbly Kilve which is a little over an hour’s drive.
