Round n Round - Romantic Woodland Cabin for Two

Round n Round, a romantic woodland cabin designed exclusively for two. Its circular form creates a gentle sense of flow & calm, soft light and surrounding trees create an atmosphere that feels almost spellbound. Round & round & up the spiral staircase you go, to the mezzanine rising through the heart of the cabin, to find a kingsize bed beneath a beautiful dome, perfect for watching treetops sway by day & stargazing by night. Or swing dreamily in the hammock for two & let the world drift by. The space Round n Round - THE ROMANTIC ONE Round n Round is one of three handcrafted retreats at Little Menherion, our 12-acre Cornish smallholding in the middle of everywhere Cornwall. Here, meadow meets woodland, and wild spaces are carefully looked after. Round n Round is exactly that - two circular cabins joined by a timber link corridor. The smaller roundhouse houses the private copper-walled shower room, while the larger space holds the kitchen, dining area, log burner and mezzanine bedroom rising up through the centre of the cabin. The shower room is warm and atmospheric, with a walk-in hot water shower, heated towel rail and a luxurious composting toilet (think sawdust rather than water to flush). A sky dome above brings daylight pouring in, while soft lighting adds a gentle glow in the evenings. In the main roundhouse, the handcrafted circular kitchen is fully equipped with hob, toaster, cafetière, pots and pans and everything you need for slow, simple cooking. Three full-length slot windows frame different woodland views, shifting the light and mood throughout the day. At the heart of the space sits the wood burner - complete with Dutch oven - surrounded by books, maps and games, and a deep leather sofa for unhurried evenings. A handcrafted spiral staircase winds up to the mezzanine, built on tree trunks, where a kingsize bed rests beneath its own sky dome. Think treetops by day, stars by night. Please note: there is some restricted headroom around parts of the mezzanine bed and near the top of the stairs. Outside, a circular deck wraps the cabin, with dining table and chairs, hammock points and a private fire pit with rustic seating - your own woodland clearing for slow evenings. Guest access Round n Round sits within its own half-acre of private woodland at the end of a lichen-lined lane. Facing south-east, the circular deck catches the first light of the day - a quiet place for morning coffee as sunlight filters gently through the trees. Just beyond the deck you’ll find hammock points, and to one side your private fire pit for slow evening cooking. Beyond your woodland clearing, you’re free to wander the wider smallholding. Visit the wildlife pond and watch dragonflies skim the surface, explore over six acres of re-wilding meadow and woodland, or arrange a tour of our organic no-dig vegetable garden. You’ll park in your dedicated on-site space and use a wheelbarrow provided to transport your belongings the 250 metres down a leafy lane to the cabin... part of the gentle arrival ritual that helps you leave the outside world behind. Along the way you’ll pass the Wee Shop, stocked seasonally with homegrown fruit and vegetables, freshly baked bread and pastries cooked to order, and a small selection of carefully chosen local & organic essentials. Other things to note Access to Little Menherion is via half a mile of unmade track - please drive slowly and take your time; it’s the first gentle nudge into the slow lane. In summer the Cornish hedges grow enthusiastically (farmers aren’t permitted to cut them during nesting season), so parking sensors may protest a little. The lane is wide enough for standard vehicles - even delivery lorries make it up comfortably. Each cabin has one allocated parking space. Little Menherion is home to just three cabins - Log Jam, Round n Round and Tylda Krow - carefully spaced across the land for privacy and peaceful stays. You’re welcome to borrow one of our up-cycled bicycles during your stay, or hire an e-bike if you’d prefer a little assistance. Please just let us know in advance so we can have everything ready for you. There’s also a natural wild water pool in the stream, heated only by the sun and filled only by the rain... the ultimate eco-friendly dip for the brave. Little Menherion sits in the middle of everywhere, Cornwall. It’s a place to hide away and switch off, or use as a base to explore the county’s coastline and culture. St Ives and the Eden Project are each around 45 minutes away in opposite directions, the nearest beaches are about 15 minutes by car, and the harbour towns of Truro and Falmouth are roughly 25 minutes away.
