The Cabin in the Woods

The Cabin in the Woods is tucked away in a secluded woodland location in the midst of nature with a private outdoor bath and a sunken firepit that doubles as a BBQ for cooking under the stars. We designed the space to encourage a balance of indoor/outdoor living to make the most of the tranquillity. A babbling natural spring and birdsong provides a natural soundtrack for most of the year while regular passers-by include deer, pheasants, owls and buzzards. The space The Cabin is simple and rustic but well appointed. It has been designed to help you wind down, switch off and recharge - an oasis of comfort in the midst of nature: * a king-sized bed with quality linen - and woodland views to die for * a proper bathroom - flushing toilet and electric shower. * a cabin kitchen (hob, fridge, sink & microwave) - to rustle up culinary delights or heat the takeaway! * a cosy electric "wood burning" stove to set right the mood * a high-speed Wifi connection, Sonos and Smart TV - for when the weather doesn't play nice! PLEASE NOTE: During freezing weather the outside bath may not be available due to frozen external pipework. Otherwise it has endless piping hot water. The Cabin itself overlooks a wood just moments from the Monarch's Way footpath and a 10-15 minute walk through country lanes from the long-distance Test Way with the Clarendon Way close by. Our rural location isn't well served by public transport so you'll need a car to get here but be sure to bring your boots, bikes and binoculars to enjoy the best that the Hampshire countryside has to offer. The Test Valley is famous for some of the best fly fishing in the world but its also home to some wonderful downland walking and cycle ways. We're in open countryside about 3 miles from historic Romsey (home to Broadlands, Mottisfont Abbey and Fishlake Meadows Wetlands Reserve) with several great pubs and a village community shop within easy reach - yet only 15 minutes drive from Winchester, Southampton, or the New Forest. Let us know if you have a particular interest in fishing The Test, bird watching, local walks or cycling routes, or places to visit for food and treats - we'll do our best to share the latest local info to help you make the most of your stay. About Us Welcome to the Cabin! Now that the kids have grow up and left home we are channelling our energies in new ways. We've been hosting guests in UK and overseas since 2008 and now look forward to welcoming you to our latest favourite spot. What started as a hobby, became our "away-from-it-all" bolt hole and is now a space we are proud to share. We hope you enjoy the peace and quiet it brings.
