Such a beautiful stay away
Recommends site
Me and my partner decided we needed to get away from the January blues and disappear out to the middle of nowhere to properly prepare for the year ahead, and we could not have picked a better place.
Whilst wheeling our stuff to the cabin in a wheelbarrow was not what we were expecting, it sets you up for the off the grid experience, and feels so novel and fun, just beware the incline (I was gasping by the time we made it.) It's an absolutely stunning site, with views you can't help but stare at, and even in the miserable January weather, we found ourselves sat outside taking it all in.
We opted for the 'introverts only' kind of trip, and whilst I imagine there are lovely walks, and the activities offered are great, sitting in the hot tub in the freezing cold wind and doing rock, paper, scissors to determine who needs to run out and throw another log on the fire was just as fun.
You're a really spaced out distance away from the other cabins, meaning that you feel secluded whilst not feeling like you're squatting in someone's shed, so if you're nervous about safety, I would 100% say that me and my partner felt like we were totally protected.
Inside, there are teabags (with an old school gas kettle), coffee (with a brewing pot), hot chocolate ingredients (powder and marshmallows), oil, salt and pepper, and a few other dry foods, plus some milk in the fridge, that mean we came home with way more salt than I bargained for, but was such a lovely touch. The kitchen has a gas hob but no oven, but we didn't find this an issue at all, and opted to spend our visit eating cheese and bread which I would absolutely recommend, for no reason other than it's delicious.
There are also games provided which we relied on for entertainment (even though I lost every single game of Uno), and the Guess Who replica we had in our cabin called 'Who is it: Is your card a boy?' gave us endless laughs.
We did ask for a call out for help at one point as something started beeping and this was resolved in a timely and friendly manner, with help coming within an hour of request, and the man who came to assist was so friendly and helpful. This just added to the lovely vibe, and made us feel looked after and just so glad we'd picked this spot.
Overall, if you're interested in going here, go. You will not regret picking the pheasant cabin (maybe I'm biased), but any of these little huts would make a lovely stay.
Thank you for having us, Jo and the team!
