About Dukeries Retreat
Tucked onto seven acres at the edge of Barnby Moor village, Dukeries Retreat delivers glamping with genuine polish. Each bell tent sleeps up to five and comes hotel-ready—bed linen, towels, bedside lamps, electric heater, kettle—plus a private shower and toilet block a short stroll away. Outside, your own hot tub takes centre stage alongside a fire pit with griddle, hammock, garden bar and seating, so sunset drinks and alfresco suppers sort themselves out. A communal kitchen (with fridge-freezer and microwave), a pizza oven and a few outdoor games round out the facilities.
Guests rave about the spotless bathrooms, peaceful countryside views and genuinely helpful hosts who share local tips. The site sits just five minutes' walk from a luxury spa, a gastropub and an Indian restaurant, though with a hot tub on your doorstep you might never leave. A few reviews note that booking slots can fill quickly—testament to how polished the whole set-up feels.

What visitors say
We had a fantastic stay at Dukeries Retreat and would highly recommend it for anyone touring with a caravan. The pitches are incredibly spacious and thoughtfully set up to feel private, each with its own hot tub, rustic bar, fridge, washing-up facilities and fire pit. Having access to our own private toilet and shower room (with a key for the duration of our stay) made everything even more comfortable and convenient. The hosts were really welcoming and helpful from the moment we arrived, and it was a nice bonus to receive discount codes for local restaurants along with information about nearby attractions. The location is ideal. It is peaceful and quiet with lovely views, yet still within walking distance of the village and amenities, and only a short drive to a larger town. The site itself is very well maintained, and it’s definitely somewhere we’d love to return to in the future.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Dukeries Retreat; it was a perfect getaway! Lyndis and Mick were welcoming and friendly hosts, and the site was perfectly set up. We loved the hot tub and the hammock! There was a lot to do in the local area, and we highly recommend staying!

Fantastic stay. Relaxing and great facilities. Being able to pitch up in our own van was great. Ideal for family get togethers whether in your own van/motorhome or in the Yurts themselves. Very well equipped. Would also recommend the White Horse Inn for a meal. Will return
