The locally built huts & cabins have been designed with an eye for detail, comfort, and individual luxury. Built by hand from reclaimed wood, the huts’ eco-credentials run high: the walls are insulated with sheep’s wool, the wood comes from an old Cheshire Mill and the kitchen work top is an old chemistry lab table! The electricity is produced by the farm’s own wind turbine.
Owners, Philip and Fiona live on the farm with their 3 dogs, Lottie, Saba and the legendary Joe. The farm has been managed on ecological lines for many years and as a consequence, its hedgerows, woodland and wildflower meadows are noted for their bird and wildlife.
The huts have everything you need both inside and out, including lots of little luxurious touches you probably wouldn’t expect: Egyptian cotton bedding and gorgeous soft towels to name a few. All the huts have central heating with heated towel rails in the bathrooms. The bathroom comes complete with a shower, washbasin and flushing loo and one of the cabins has a freestanding bath. Outside you have a private deck boasting views towards the sea, with your own wood-fired hot tub and firepit.
On arrival, you will have a delicious welcome basket of homemade chocolate cake, fresh farm eggs, milk and local tea and coffee to get you started. Our food hampers are locally sourced, for instance our coffee supplier is Pilgrims Coffee on Holy Island and our milk and eggs come from local producers!
Our goat’s milk soaps are made locally by Todburn Soaps at Todburn West Farm – a traditional working farm just 3 miles away. The goats Hyacinth, Marigold and Dandelion produce the milk and Sophie, the farmer, turns it into the most gorgeous soaps. The soap we have supplied is for you to keep and take home with you.
A stay at Hillside Huts & Cabins allows you to get closer to nature and the outdoors. Both have proven beneficial effects on our health and well being and make eco-conscious choices a real pleasure. You can take part in some of our unique experiences such as wild yoga, fitness & swimming.
