A very unique and beautiful cabin in the garden, in a nice part of Winchester. We had a great time during our stay.The only watch outs would be that the bedrooms are unique and small (but just per the pictures) so more than a night or two might be a bit much! Also it has an inside composting toilet, so may not be to everyone’s taste. Finally, the outside kitchen was very cool, but in mid September was already nippy in the mornings, definitely more of a summer spot!

Lovely night away
Lovely place to stay, friendly host who is very helpful with ideas. Cabin was homely and cosy, kids loved the bed set up. Outdoor kitchen was perfect, we cooked burgers and steaks to perfection. Kids where given the run of the garden and the boys have told me to give a 5 star review. Thank you for having us.
