Cosy Off-Grid Stargazing Dome in the Jurassic Coast with optional Hot Tub & Sauna

THE HOT TUB AND SAUNA ARE AVAILABLE AT AN ADDITIONAL COST. A £50 SECURITY DEPOSIT WILL BE TAKEN AFTER YOU BOOK.

Unwind in a clear stargazing geo dome at Hartridge Springs in Devon’s Blackdown Hills. Your private pitch is set apart for privacy, with a fire pit and valley views. Sleep in a cosy pod double bed, with solar lighting and heating. Use the communal wood-fired sauna and modern shared wash block with hydrotherapy showers, and add on optional wood-fired hot tub for an extra fee.

This clear 15ft mirror wrapped geoidome is designed for panoramic views and stargazing, ideal for slowing down and spending your evenings around the fire or watching the stars from the comfort of the dome. You’ll also have optional paid access to the communal wood-fired sauna and a free-of-charge modern shared wash block with hydrotherapy showers. A welcoming pub is around a mile and a half away, and the Jurassic Coast is within easy reach by car for day trips.

You’ll have your own purposely separated pitch for privacy, plus a deck for outdoor living, valley views, and the simple pleasures of evenings by the fire. With shared facilities just a short walk away and optional wood-fired extras available, it’s a memorable base for couples or a small family who want nature, stars, and space to unwind.
