Larch Block – New for 2025!

Introducing Larch Block – our stunning, brand-new facilities block that’s taken the place of the former House Block (for those who remember!). After a full winter of hard work, we’re thrilled to unveil a space that’s been built from the ground up and thoughtfully designed with your comfort and needs in mind.

Step inside and enjoy modern privacy shower and wash cubicles, user-controlled power showers with luxurious underfloor heating, hair and hand dryers, and shaver points. Families will love the dedicated family shower room, featuring a tots toilet, main toilet, temperature-controlled shower, and baby changing area — perfect for making life easier with little ones.

But that’s not all… relax and unwind in our brand-new sauna room, pamper your pup at the dog washing and grooming station, and take advantage of our sparkling new pot washing facility.

Purpose Built Sauna

Our sauna is purpose built, hand crafted of western red cedar with an electric sauna heater. It comfortably seats up to 10 people and access is directly from the ladies and gents shower rooms within Larch Block, meaning that it is a unisex sauna. Cedar benches either side of the sauna are at two different heights to achieve different temperature sensations.
