Featured in The Guardian’s top 10 best UK off-grid retreats, this cabin in Plush, Dorset, is a rural hideaway from busy lives.
This cabin offers a warm and homely feel whilst being free of clutter, making it the perfect space to relax and unwind without being surrounded by unnecessary mess.
Situated in a field, you can relax in nature, listen to the wind in the trees and take in the breathtaking views of the valley.
Not to worry though, if you need to see some civilisation, there is a pub a 2-minute walk away, so you can grab a bite to eat and a drink before strolling back to your cosy cabin retreat.
Dogs are also welcome, so you can bring your furry friend and let them roam free in the vast field that is safe and secure.
Whatever the weather, this cabin offers so much for a calm few day’s break away; you can explore the countryside in warmer weather and if it’s rainy and cooler, you can cosy up in the cabin with a good book.
The hut has a large window facing out to the amazing countryside views, the double bed is facing the window, letting you lie in the cosy cabin and look out to the fields and hills of Dorset.
You will feel instantly relaxed and carefree, taking in the view.
Although the cabin is built in a studio style with the bedroom and living space as one, this doesn’t stop you from having enough space to move around and, in fact, adds to the cosy vibe.
The kitchen comes with everything you need and has a gas hob, cooking equipment, stovetop coffee maker and a fridge freezer.
Basic cooking ingredients are also included; once you’ve provided the food, there isn’t much reason to leave!
There is a light and airy feel to the place with the amazing light that filters in through the windows, everywhere you look there’s a gorgeous view.
You can experience peace and quiet on a whole other level.
This retreat is designed to escape the distractions of mobile phones and Netflix and bring you back to basics, read a book or play a board game, talk and laugh without any distractions.
If the nights are cooler, you can enjoy the wood burner, which will warm you up and relax you even more.
There’s a cute breakfast bar where you can enjoy your food and socialise with a glass of wine or birdwatch from the window.
There’s plenty of storage for your things, so the area doesn’t feel too crowded.
There are also some books provided for you to enjoy and a sound system so you can relax with some music.
There is an ensuite complete with a shower with hot running water to refresh you after a day of adventure around Dorset and a toilet. (This adds a nice touch being in the cabin, as with a lot of rural getaways, the toilets aren’t always inside.) Eco-friendly soap, shampoo and towels are provided.
There is ample outside space, a BBQ and table and chairs are provided so if the weather is suitable you can dine outside with nothing but the countryside for you to admire.
There is even a mobile lockbox, so why not lock away all the electronics and spend quality time together?
There is no TV or wifi on the property, so you have nothing to lose, locking your phone away for a few hours and exploring the country the ‘old fashioned way.’
This cabin is the perfect getaway for anyone who enjoys being in the country with no distractions and is far away from ‘normal’ lives full of noise, electronics and forgetting to live in the moment.
There are places you can visit in Dorset that are a short drive away from the cabin, so you can go out and explore different towns and attractions.
If you want solitude and tranquillity, then get booked in!
