Teal Lodge on Kip Hideaways

Wild stays within 2 hours of London.

Kip Edit.
Red Cabin Blickling on Kip Hideaways

This is the great magic trick of a wild stay near London: one minute you’re in a Pret at Waterloo, the next you’re barefoot on a deck in Norfolk watching steam curl up from a cedar hot tub while a barn owl swoops over the field in front of you.

No emails. No train-platform queues. Just trees, silence, a glass of wine, and maybe a sauna hidden under the trees.

In this edit, we’ve gathered the kind of places that make you recalibrate without trying too hard. Architectural cabins in East Sussex that look like they’ve landed from another planet. Rewilding stays in Somerset where the mornings are all birdsong and early morning dew drops on long grass. Cosy huts in Oxfordshire and the Cotswolds made for stunning walks, river swims, and reading half a novel before dinner. The sort of places where dinner somehow tastes better eaten outside, where you remember what darkness actually looks like, and where the entertainment for the evening is mostly just “listen to that”, or “look at the stars!”

Come alone with a yoga mat and an eyemask. Come with someone you like and a bag full of good snacks. Leave your group chats unanswered for 48 hours. These are stays for switching off properly – not in a performative, wellness-retreat way, but in the deeply restorative business of being outside, sleeping well, breathing deeper, and taking it all back to the simple basics.
