Beautifully secluded and nestled on the edge of a magnificent forest, this modern eco-cabin offers couples a wonderful and romantic retreat with spectacular views of the surrounding countryside. You’ll want to lock your phones away and spend your days appreciating your marvellous surroundings as you disconnect from the day-to-day.
The cabin, called Bunty, boasts a fab picture window that frames the amazing view, which you can enjoy from the comfort of your super-comfy double bed. The bed is made up with top-tier hotel-quality bedding, which, combined with the tranquillity of your surroundings, all but guarantees you a peaceful night’s sleep. When the sun is shining you can leave the door open and let the fresh summer air in, and when it’s cold outside, throw some logs on the wood burning stove and stay toasty and warm.
In the morning you can indulge in a luxurious hot shower before preparing a delicious breakfast in the fully equipped kitchenette.
Take your breakfast alfresco in the charming outdoor seating area, where you can unwind and relish the tranquil views. There are far fewer better places to enjoy a refreshing glass of wine in the evening than out here. And when the sun sets, your firepit awaits. This is the perfect place to toast marshmallows over crackling flames as you marvel at the star-filled night sky and chat long into the night.
Thoughtfully designed for a genuine digital detox experience, the cabin provides a lockbox to securely store your phone. Immerse yourself in the enchantment of a captivating book or enjoy the nostalgic entertainment provided, including an instant camera, a variety of board games, a cassette player and even a retro Nokia mobile phone with the classic game Snake.
Bunty embodies a commitment to environmental sustainability, relying primarily on solar energy as its power source. With low carbon impact materials used during construction and eco-friendly brands featured throughout, the owners have made conscious choices to minimise the ecological footprint, ensuring a sustainable and environmentally conscious stay.
Bunty's view is a showcase of British countryside with rolling hills as far as the eye can see. And, just a few minutes’ away, you can explore over a thousand acres of spectacular woodland. The closest village of Yattendon is also a short hop away and offers shops, cafes, pubs and even a brewery.
