“I wanted to create an antidote to modern life. I was finding the pace of city life exhausting, with its relentless focus on productivity. We have the ability to always be ‘on’ but it’s not always good for us. One of the antidotes I found was going into the countryside and switching off. So I wanted to provide small spaces where I and others can do the same.” Founder, Jimmy

“Nature as far as the eye can see.”
We love
The sheer style of the interiors: hotel-room style beauty deep in the wilds of Exmoor. It’s a heady mix.

There is an additional fee of £25 per dog for the extra cleaning (payable upon booking), and owners are liable for any damage their dog causes to the cabin or surrounding farmland and livestock.
