I think this might be my favourite way to spend a weekend 🤍

Slow mornings watching the sun rise over the water.
Steaming outdoor baths before anyone else is awake.
Sauna sessions with that view.
Outdoor showers under the sky.
Pizza nights on the deck with a drink in hand.
Music on,
Glitter ball sparkling, nowhere else to be 🪩

And when the sun goes down?
The whole place glows.

I could stay here forever ✨

This is your reminder that the best weekends aren’t always busy ones. Sometimes you just need a private cabin in the countryside, fresh air, hot baths and someone you love beside you.

You need this…..

A private cabin in the woods, just for grownups ❤️

From the sauna overlooking the pond to the outdoor baths under a glitter ball - guests book The Longhouse for the WOW factor and feeling of staying in a cabin that in their words is “Truly Spectacular”

For me when I’m in The Longhouse, I can’t believe we built it - I say “we” - it was mainly hubby with me as a wonderful assistant 😂. It’s such a beautiful space that’s completely private, with an incredible view where you can completely switch off for a little while.

This and no alarm for 48 hours >>> 🌿

A slow few days at The Longhouse looks a little like this:

morning coffee in outside, woodland walks, long soaks under the stars together, good food, sauna with an incredible view and nowhere else to be.

No schedules.
No rushing.
Just time to properly switch off.

Hidden away in the Rutland countryside, The Longhouse is made for cosy evenings, lazy mornings and the kind of quiet you don’t realise you’ve been craving.

This is your sign to book the cabin escape you keep talking about ✨

Today marks one year since our 1st guests arrived to stay in The Longhouse cabin.

What a wonderful year it’s been. We’ve have so many lovely messages in our guest book, recommendations and rebooks.

We built the cabin ourselves and couldn’t be any prouder. Every time I walk into the cabin I get that “pinch me” moment as it really is so very beautiful….but then I would say that.

I guess you will just have to book and come and experience it for yourself.
