BURRENMORE NEST

A TranQuil Forest Escape rooted in Nature

Burrenmore Nest is an adults-only forest retreat designed for those seeking stillness, comfort, and connection. Tucked among towering pine trees, each lodge offers a sense of seclusion and calm — where mornings begin with birdsong and evenings wind down beside the glow of a wood-fired hot tub. It’s a place to pause, breathe deeply, and let the quiet of the forest set the pace.

Every lodge has been crafted to blend naturally with its surroundings, offering thoughtful details that bring the outside in. Guests can unwind in the woodland sauna, soak beneath the trees in your private hot tub, or sit by the fire and simply enjoy the soft light filtering through the forest canopy.

Wild peacocks wander freely among the trees and lodges, adding a touch of unexpected magic to the experience. With select lodges welcoming dogs, Burrenmore Nest makes it easy to share this peaceful escape with your four-legged companion.
