Daisy

Daisy comes fully equipped for self-catering: electricity, bed linen and towels are all included, and the kitchen has a gas hob and barbecue for cooking. The pod itself is compact—an open-plan living space on the ground floor with a double bed and pull-out single beds (for children). You have your own external shower room and a decked sitting area with garden furniture. Heating keeps things warm through cooler months.

The property sits in ten acres of ancient woodland on the Berkshire and Hampshire border. You get private parking for one car and access to the grounds, which feature a shared firepit and seating area. The woodland itself is yours to explore on foot or by bike—there's a bike store on site, and paths wind through trees where you might spot wildlife. One dog is welcome. The nearby village has shops, a post office, three pubs and a monthly market all within walking distance. Smoking is not permitted inside.
