“Cross Hill Glamping offers a genuinely restorative escape, where thoughtful touches like heated bathroom floors and exceptional private dining elevate the stay far beyond simple luxury. The comfort of the expansive domes, particularly the beds and the ability to stargaze from them, creates an unparalleled sense of peace. It feels less like accommodation and more like a curated experience, especially with the warmth of the owners and their pup, Digby, making you feel truly welcomed.”
