I think a treehouse holiday would be so memorable. For the adults maybe the hot tub. Activities wise I would say the bike riding, it always feels so free somehow cycling around surrounded by nature.

I love being in forests amongst nature. To spend the day walking or cycling in the forest, then home to my hot tub in the cabin sounds wonderful.

Oh my goodness! I wasn’t familiar with Forest Holidays but they look amazing! We would absolutely love some of the adventurous activities on offer (but I secretly want to do a bit of ‘forest bathing’ myself). But the thought of sinking into a private hot tub at the end of a long day of woodlands walks is irresistible.

We have twin boys who are almost 3 - both have autism and taking them away on holiday seems absolutely impossible. At the moment we can’t even take them out into our garden as it’s not safe for them. I’ve been looking recently for places we could go and several of these seem ideal. Just the thought of being able to take them into the woods and play sounds like absolute heaven to me right now!

The peace and quiet. We live in a busy block of flats, in a busy area of a busy town.
The fresh air and slower pace.

Forest walks are such a peaceful way to spend time, and my children love outdoor crafts. Plus the tree houses look amazing!

I like the way that the cabins have verandas that are enclosed with vertical post fences. It means that my very climby 2 year old can't climb the bars and fall over the top. Much more relaxed Mummy!

Being able to take the whole family including the dogs. Peaceful walks and a hot tub.

I want to go here and sit in the hot tub looking out at the scenery. I've looked a couple of time but haven't been able to stretch to it. I love these types of holidays but haven't ever been able to have one with a hot tub.

Being in the forest and close to nature. Being able to bring our dog.

I think the best part would be spending days exploring on our bikes with the kids, then relaxing in a hot tub with a glass of Prosecco once they're fast asleep Grin

Being in the outdoors, teaching my children about nature, and a hot tub would be a great bonus!

For me it's spending quality time with the family and relaxing in the hot tub in the evening.

I love the idea of a family bike ride followed by a private hot tub. Sounds heavenly!

Staying in a Golden Oak cabin would be such a treat for us, my daughter would think it was magical. Spending quality time together making memories as a family is so important, particularly with current health issues x
