Step into a world of cosy off-grid magic at the Nova Dome, a beautifully crafted circular hideaway tucked deep into 18 acres of peaceful Herefordshire pastureland. With its sweeping picture window framing the rolling hills and a skylight perfectly positioned above the bespoke king size bed, this stay is all about slowing down, tuning in to nature and drifting off beneath a glittering night sky. It’s a retreat made for stargazers, quiet-weekend seekers and anyone craving an adults-only escape surrounded by birdsong and wide-open countryside.
Days here move gently. After a scenic walk up the steep path to your dome, drop your bags, sink into a bean bag by the firepit and soak up the uninterrupted rural views. In summer you’ll dine alfresco on your private deck, cooking pizza or BBQ feasts on the Kamado grill as sheep amble through their nearby fields and a stream babbles softly in the background. In cooler months you’ll curl up inside, book in hand, listening to the comforting crackle of the wood burner while rain patters on the curved roof above.
The living space is snug, warm and inviting – a place to read, sip wine and simply be. After days spent hiking Offa’s Dyke or canoeing on the River Wye, you can melt into your private wood-fired hot tub, watching steam rise into the dusk while the hills fade into silhouette. The compact kitchen is well equipped with a gas hob, fridge and kettle, making everything from morning moka coffee to lazy suppers a breeze.
A few steps from the dome you’ll find your private bathroom, complete with a hot shower, sink and eco-friendly touches throughout. Built with conservation in mind, the dome runs on solar power, uses compost loos and spring water, and has USB-only charging to keep life simple and sustainable. As night falls, retreat to the elevated mezzanine bedroom where the comfort of the king size bed and the stargazing window above make drifting off a joy.
When you’re ready to explore, the surrounding Black Mountains, Offa’s Dyke trail and the bookish town of Hay-on-Wye offer endless adventures. Whether you’re here for countryside rambles, good local food or simply to watch the stars from bed, the Nova Dome is an unforgettable escape.
