About this home
This eco-friendly cabin is powered by solar panels and is far from the trappings of modern life.
On arrival, you can choose to put your phone away in a lockbox – your host recommends at least 72 hours away from the pings of email and endless scrolling.
Should you need to get in contact with friends and family (or make a booking at the local pub, a twenty-minute walk away) you’re given a replacement, old-school Nokia. Plus, a manual camera to snap a few photos.
Timber-clad, this cabin sits in a patchwork of fields with a picnic bench and chairs on the patio to enjoy the view. Big windows inside let you read in bed while admiring the countryside and there’s a wood-burning stove for chilly evenings.
Despite its off-grid status, there’s plenty of hot water for showers after a long hike in the countryside. Your host even provides paper maps and compasses so you won’t get lost.

This place is all about escaping the modern world, so there’s no Wifi or TV and there’s even a lock-box for your phone for the ultimate digital detox. There is a gas hob, fridge-freezer, kettle and toaster in the kitchenette but not a full oven or microwave. Parking is a three-minute walk from the cabin, and your host provides a trolley and wellies for the walk with your luggage.
