Guest reviews and alternatives
The treehouse has a near-perfect Airbnb rating of 4.99 stars from 144 reviews. One guest said: "We just came back from a magical couple of nights at Hoots Treehouse. What a place! Beautiful views, surrounded by remote and gorgeous woodland with amazing nature and walks."
Another added: "A very special and magical place. Very thoughtfully designed and everything you need. Beautiful and peaceful surroundings. Our son didn’t want to leave."
One review noted: "Was a lovely stay, however it was reasonably loud one day with chainsawing taking place behind the treehouse for about 45 mins and a few crumbs left around from the last people staying there. Felt a bit less private than we had hoped, but still a very unique and lovely stay!"
For those preferring a northern location, alternatives include The Oaks in Great Harwood, Lancashire, from £1,024 for seven nights (sleeps eight, pet friendly), and Chestnuts at Youlton Lodge in North Yorkshire, from £860 for seven nights (sleeps six).
Airbnb notes the treehouse is not suitable for four adults due to limited beds, advising larger groups to seek more spacious accommodations.
