life’s simple pleasures
Many of our guests keep it simple and stay at the Bide for the duration of their stay… spending time soaking up the views from the hottub, making homemade pizza (Gozney pizza oven available to hire), toasting marshmellows on the fire pit, movie nights on the projector, board games & books…
a stone’s throw
