Top 5 reasons to have a Great British getaway

With its rolling green hills, honey-hued villages, and stunning Jurassic coastline, Dorset has been enchanting holidaymakers for years. There’s no denying that the love for a great British getaway has exploded over the last year, with lockdown restrictions allowing our own landscape to be the main attraction – and only option. However, those in the know will tell you just how much of an adventure can be had on England’s green and pleasant land. In many ways, we’re a little sad that the secret charm of ‘staycationing’ has been let out of the bag!

Here’s our TOP 5 Reasons to stay at Burnbake:

1. IDYLLIC LOCATION

A stay at Burnbake is like stepping into the pages of Enid Blyton’s ‘Famous Five’ adventure stories – beautiful landscapes, magical seaside explorations and all the things you would wish to do on an escape to the country. It is an enchanting woodland oasis where birds sing, campfires crackle and the waves crash along the nearby dramatic coastlines. On a relaxing retreat in Burnbake’s great outdoors, your back-to-nature adventure can be as action-packed as what you want it to be.

2. TRADITIONAL CHARM OR TOUCH OF LUXURY

The perfect place to unwind, Burnbake can be tailored to your getaway dreams. The alluring traditional charm of camping with its crackling campfires and toasted marshmallows at twilight or a contemporary, relaxing retreat in one of our luxury forest lodges with its own hot tub. Either way, you will be kicking back, escaping the daily stresses of everyday life and soaking up the hearty welcome of the British countryside.

3. GOOD OL’ FASHIONED PLAY

A rural wildlife haven with birdsong orchestrating your adventure, butterflies creating a kaleidoscope of colour, and brave woodland creatures greeting you each day. From beavering by the stream and foraging firewood to hiding in the woods and absorbing nature’s wonderful gifts, good ol’ fashioned play is aplenty for children and adults alike. Burnbake offers a sense of freedom that is simply magical.

4. DORSET HERITAGE

With one of Dorset’s iconic landmarks, Corfe Castle, nestled in the very close by and picturesque village of Corfe, and a designated Jurassic Coast World Heritage site at your fingertips, Burnbake is steeped in rich cultural opportunities. That’s before we mention the historical and literary landscapes dotted across the county within minutes in every direction. The stunning beaches of Studland, the quaint, Saxon town of Wareham and the natural wonders that are Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door. You are spoilt for choice.

5. ENDLESS ADVENTURES

If you are looking to add some action-packed adventures to your staycation at Burnbake, then the options are endless. Natural adventures from rock-pooling, foraging, fossil-hunting, climbing, and coasteering are exciting and exhilarating in equal measure. Alternatively, you can boost your voyage into nature by cycling, horse-riding, kayaking, playing golf, abseiling, or seeking an adrenaline rush at the Burnbake Ropes Course – a challenging mix of zip wires and ropes high in the forest trees – to name but a few. If your adventure is to have the ultimate relaxing retreat, then book one of our spa treatments or a private dining experience with Christian, our fine dining chef.
