The Base is much more than a place to stay; it is a dedicated non-profit sanctuary where guests share the grounds with rescued chickens, turkeys, rabbits, and guinea pigs. Located on the edge of Bristol—frequently called the UK’s vegan capital—this retreat offers a rare opportunity to wake up to the sight of liberated animals roaming freely in the garden. The property is strictly plant-based, ensuring a "safe haven" atmosphere where no animal products are permitted on-site, making it a dream destination for ethical travelers.

The standout reason to book here is the Luxury Cabin, which sits at the top of the garden and offers dramatic sunrise views over the Cotswolds. It features underfloor heating, a cozy wood burner, and "soft-as-down" microfibre bedding (because the down stays on the ducks here!). For an extra touch of indulgence, you can book an exclusive-use Spa Session featuring a hot tub, sauna, and cold plunge. Whether you’re enjoying a legendary vegan afternoon tea delivered to your door or taking a "leafy stroll" to the nearby Cock Road Ridge nature reserve, your stay directly supports the care and feeding of the resident animals.

Spa Bundles: Spa sessions and vegan breakfast platters can be added as discounted bundles during the booking process
