Conversion Story: Newly converted in summer 2022, Livia has a stunning home-from-home feel. Birch and Oak aromas greet you with a Scandi hygge hug. Professionally crafted by John Ryan [Head carpenter of Woodend Woodwork, whose work appears on Film and Theatre sets, and the Tate Modern]. We wanted to create a very light contemporary space, with a modern tiny-house vibe.

In the summer months, you will be the envy of your fellow campers when you sit relaxing at the rear dining table, enjoying your home-cooked food, taking in unforgettable views, and enjoying the very best the British countryside has to offer. In the winter months after hard days adventuring Livia is the perfect warm cosy den to retreat to, whilst contemplating where to wander next.
