Enjoy a holiday with a difference, relax under canvas and soak up the peace and tranquility of the rolling Dorset countryside, with luxury en suite facilities, glamping style. Black Pig Retreats is part of Bittles Brook Farm, on the outskirts of the village of Motcombe, where you leave your car in the car park and your luggage will be taken over the little bridge to your canvas retreat! Nestled beside a little brook in a sheltered meadow, Mukota is a spacious safari tent sleeping four with an earthy African theme, surrounded by greenery.
The south-facing deck looks out across the large meadow to a woodland trail that takes you around the farm and into the village. This colourful tent sleeps four very comfortably in a king-size bed and twin beds divided by canvas. The cosy wood-fired range keeps the tent toasty warm out-of-season and the kitchen is well-equipped with a two-ring gas hob, sink with plenty of hot water and a fridge/freezer for those holiday luxuries. The quirky en suite facilities are in a sturdy horse-box at the back of the tent accessed via an enclosed walkway, fully insulated the horse-box contains a double shower, wash-basin and flushing WC.
Mukota takes its name from a breed of indigenous domestic pig from the Mukota region of north-eastern Zimbabwe and shares the meadow with a delightful Bothy built with straw bales and timber clad. Tables and seating for twenty allow groups to dine together if they book the whole site. Pilates classes are often available in the Bothy on a Wednesday from 10am to 11am at a cost of £15 per person per class; if you wish to attend during your holiday, please let the owner know when you arrive and pay her directly.
