Responsible tourism
As the pioneers of responsible tourism, we screen every trip so you can travel knowing your holiday will help support conservation and local people.

Water is provided by the source which is ultimately supplied by rain water so its in our own interests to use it efficiently. The water is pumped up and stored in a large tank behind the cabin. We provide drinking water. Visitors to the cabin are given written info on using water efficiently.
By providing bike hire, we are encouraging visitors to make the most of the local shops, restaurants and businesses. We provide written info on local business and events. Any money spent here helps to strengthen the local community.
We shop locally ourselves when we can and all materials and stocks for the cabin are purchased through our local network of suppliers. Much of the cabin has been built and furnished with second hand materials, ie the roof tiles were salvaged from a tumbledown barn, and the timber was coppiced locally. The woodland surrounding the cabin is a haven for wildlife as it's quiet and remains generally undisturbed. Guide books are provided on what visitors might expect to see. Our ethos is to provide visitors with a unique holiday experience which provides good value for money with minimal environmental impact.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
Spending lazy days floating on the lake, feeding the tame carp.
2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
Make good use of the bikes, there is a lot of fantastic countryside all around.
3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, and minimized impacts on the environment?
The cabin is as about as eco-firendly as you can get whilst retaining a few creature conforts (i.e. gas fridge and cooker).
4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
Excellent, a unique place to spend a week or so, totally relaxing, lovely people.
