Nestled among the trees within the fringes of a peaceful meadow you’ll find this adorable hand-crafted railway carriage, boasting cuteness and cosiness from every corner. It’s just perfect for couples looking to escape the real world.

After making your way through the beautiful countryside and over the wooden bridge, hiding at the edge of a shaded woodland this charming cabin will come into sight. Soak up the emerald views before stepping through the double doors into the gorgeous open-plan living space. The meticulous attention to detail exudes an undeniable warmth and welcome the moment you enter; cosy chairs sit beside the fire and look out to the meadow – a delightful spot to snuggle up and enjoy a hot cocoa as the sun sets outside.

Although small in size, the kitchen area has everything you could need to cook up delicious meals, there’s even a pull-out table and chairs to enjoy a spot of candle-lit fine dining!

When the day is done, climb into the cabin bed and sink into the squashy bed linen, knitted cushions and fur throws – with the wooden ceiling above you, you really will feel like you’re a million miles from anywhere! There’s also a shower room with a loo within the carriage, so no need to forego the luxuries like with more traditional camping.

The outside space is utterly charming. Wake up with nature, let the outside in and enjoy breakfast on the terrace with nothing but birdsong and fresh countryside air surrounding you. This charming terrace area is a perfect sun trap, yet has a cover for cooler autumn evenings, although the iron fire pit is sure to keep you nice and warm – gather on the log stools, toast marshmallows and gaze up at the starry night sky above.

Make the most of the serene outside space and take a dip in the natural plunge pools or have a swing on the hammock. With nothing but the welcome shade of the trees, comfy cushions to lay your head, the sweet smell of wild flowers and the faint sound of the babbling brook – you can laze away your days in complete and utter bliss.

A beautiful little cabin in the woods. The sky at night is spectacular, with no light pollution, the stars just pop. If you want peace away from the world, then I'd thoroughly recommend

The wool washers hut was really cosy, everything was catered for. The shops were only 10 mins away, and there was a great selection. The brook was a peaceful and calming sound. The fire pit was easy to use as was the gas barbecue. The hut was warm and the water was hot. We would visit again.

We had a wonderful few days here. The gorgeous hut is very cosy, the bed very comfortable and the location is secluded, peaceful and surrounded by nature. We saw a kingfisher on our first morning! We will definitely return. Wool Washers is our new favourite place to stay

Relaxed and peaceful week in this idyllic shepherds hut. The hut is beautiful and warm, and everything provided for a comfortable stay. So much nature and the sound of the babbling brook is wonderful to go to sleep and wake up to, beats any wellness app. Thank you.

A wonderful secluded hut, excellent atmosphere with the noise from the brook filling the private garden. Access for the car is good, but for the most part it stayed where it was while we relaxed and read/dozed in the garden. The covered deck adds an excellent element to the holiday to help cope with the weather when it comes over all Welsh (rain).
