Fire up the barbecue for a memorable outdoor meal, or gather around the fire pit in the evening to toast marshmallows and share stories under the stars.

This peaceful environment is alive with wildlife and offers a touch of magic as the occasional steamtrain glides past.

Stepping over the threshold, be delighted by an open-plan, bespoke oak and wood interior that incorporates many of the original bus elements into its design.

Staying comfortable year-round is effortless, as Walter is equipped with central heating and radiators to keep you warm during the colder months.
