what is the retreat?

Architects Buckley Gray Yeoman, a practice more used to creating projects as diverse as the British Council’s offices in Milan and The Bridge for Channel Five Television, were challenged to design a new Holiday Caravan Home / Lodge. The result is The Retreat.

Contemporary, intelligent and rigidly constructed. The design and quality of materials used are nothing like the preconceived idea of a holiday home. The Retreat is extensively built from timber, from sustainable forests, because it is the world’s most sustainable, and arguably most beautiful, building material.

There are no faux finishes. Where there is wood, it is solid timber, where there are windows, they are floor to ceiling glass. Several models feature a unique private decked courtyard unheard of in a Holiday Caravan.

Ever conscious of environmental issues, all of The Retreat models have been designed with sustainability in mind and we even produce a dedicated Sustainable - Model.
