Glamping Pods with Hot Tubs
Stay near Edwinstowe, sleep in the countryside
Edwinstowe is the village at the heart of Sherwood Forest. The Major Oak is a short walk from its high street, the church is where legend says Robin Hood married Maid Marian, and the Robin Hood Festival fills the forest every August.
Eden Pines has six glamping pods for two, each with its own private hot tub on its own terrace, on a four-and-a-half-acre working smallholding at Oxton Hill near Southwell. It is about 25 minutes south of Edwinstowe, which puts the forest within easy reach for a day while keeping the nights properly dark and quiet.
The park is adults only, so it suits couples looking for a quiet break rather than families with young children. If you want the forest by day and a hot tub under the stars by night, this is the arrangement. The park opens in December 2026 and you can register interest now.
