WHY STAY
KUDHVA is a creative community and 100% sustainable glamping site focussed on off-grid living in Cornwall, United Kingdom. Surrounded by willow forests and 180-degrees of the North Atlantic ocean, the unique space also harbours a 40-foot waterfall and a 43-acre slate quarry, presenting full landscape integration.
Stay at one of four architectural Kudhvas (‘hideout’ in Cornish), built with larch, glass and steel, and standing 7 metres off the ground. The futuristic treehouses juxtaposed against organic surroundings have been designed with floor to ceiling windows and built to experience both the sunrise and sunset. Those who would like to take sleeping in the wild to the next level can stay in one of five Tree Tents in the willow groves, or the Shanti Tipis with the ocean below. Families and groups can reside at the solar-powered wooden Danish Cabin, suitable for 6 people, with a unique location above a waterfall.
Kudhva’s essence of wellness, adventure, nature, and design, combined with its one-of-a-kind accommodation offers a surreal and unparalleled nature experience.
WHY WANDER
See the English coastal county from a new perspective. Discover over 150 beaches, with some of the best surfing Britain has to offer. Go swimming through the onsite reservoir. Walk along the famous South West Coast Path. Go rock climbing along the wild North Cornish coast. Take part in Silence & Noise sound therapy or yoga. Learn about sustainable living by taking a land management course.
INDULGE IN
Local organic food cooked over your own firepit. Dinners by Beautiful & The Feast every weekend through the season, at their own onsite kitchen called New Eyes. Cocktails made with Kudhva’s own botanicals - wild strawberries, gorse flowers, spotted orchids, cotton grass, honeysuckle, king ferns, wood violets and water mint. Visit Port Gaverne, a 17th-century hotel, for a dinner away.
GETTING THERE
Fly into Newquay Airport which is only 45 minutes away or take a scenic 5-hour drive from London.
