Secluded Off-Grid Woodland Hideaway with Scenic Trails
Nestled at the edge of a quiet field in Staffordshire’s ancient woodlands, Alcor is a peaceful off-grid retreat with sweeping views across parkland. It’s deliberately hard to find—only guests with the right directions will uncover this hidden gem. Once you’re settled in, you’ll feel worlds away, yet still within walking distance of two standout country pubs and a network of trails perfect for hiking, cycling, or a morning run. Step straight into Swynnerton Old Park, part of the Hanchurch Hills trail system, where winding paths lead through forest and open countryside. When it’s time to refuel, the Fitzherbert Arms (Staffordshire’s award-winning pub) and the Mainwaring Arms are both nearby and well worth the stroll.
Alcor suits couples seeking a romantic escape, friends chasing fresh air and adventure, or solo guests looking to unplug and recharge. The cabin sits 300m from the parking spot—just a short walk uphill to panoramic views and total tranquillity. Swynnerton village is a few minutes’ drive away, and Eccleshall offers more dining options, independent shops, and a top-rated butcher. After booking, you’ll receive our curated guide with local highlights and hidden gems.
Alcor cabin is well connected by car - only 1h 20mins from Liverpool, 1h 15mins from Manchester, 50 mins from Birmingham,or 3h from London. Well setup for public transport - only a 15-minute taxi ride from the nearest railway station (Stone station). Parking is just off the road - followed by a short walk to the cabin. Wellies are supplied in the log store in order to assist guests to access the cabin if required.
The cabin features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. The cabin also includes a coffee maker.
