Our chalets vary in terms of the number of people they can accommodate. Some chalets, for example 443 Norton Park and 429 Norton Park, sleep two guests, making them a perfect option for couples looking for a cosy stay.

The majority of our chalets comfortably accommodate up to four people, in two spacious bedrooms. 328 Norton Park, 40 Norton Park and 51 Norton Park have been particularly popular amongst families and smaller groups of friends. If you’re a bigger group, we also have a handful of chalets that can sleep up to five guests, for example our newest addition, 17 Norton Park and the very spacious 5 Norton Park.

All of the chalets’ clean and modern kitchens are fully equipped with crockery, cutlery, cooking utensils, hob and an oven, meaning you won’t need to bring anything with you to cook with.

Many of the chalets will also come with a dishwasher, washing machine and microwave, but feel free to get in touch with us to double check prior to your stay.

All of our chalets have WiFi with a great signal, although we doubt you’ll need it with so many things to do and see during your stay!
