“We’re originally from the local area, and after living away in London and Berlin we decided to renovate a property here in our home country. We had done up a few places in London previously but wanted a bigger challenge. After renovating our own house, we wanted to create a unique luxury retreat to share with others, a comfortable place with beautiful interiors where guests could come to stay year-round. And so, this cabin was born!” Owners, Amy and Bryn
They love
“Sitting on the balcony in the mornings and listening to birdsong.”
We love
The handmade details – the cushions were made by a friend of the owners, and vases are by London designers.
