Located all over the UK, they offer a mixture of luxury and back-to-basics type of living where you can either indulge yourself or disconnect from the rest of the world. Get ready to be fully immersed in nature, while taking in some breathtaking landscapes and living off-grid for a few days or more.
Here are our top 6 unique stays in the UK:
Hudnalls Hideout Treehouse
Who doesn’t love a secret hideout? Especially when it’s a treehouse. This adult only luxurious single secluded A-frame is located in the beautiful Wye Valley which is a 3-hour drive from London. Surrounded by dense woodland, you have the whole place to yourself where you can have the chance to unwind and relax.
Offering a private lookout bar, it also includes a gorgeous outdoor brass bathtub to soak up the noises of nature, a fire pit which is perfect for toasting marshmallows and a cosy woodland sauna.
You can really hit the pause button here and switch off from the outside world. Take a walk through the wildflower meadow, or lounge in bed gazing out of the floor to ceiling windows. It could be the perfect time to grab a book and immerse yourself in the stylish Scandi-Lux interior or play some board games in front of the roaring suspended cocoon Aeris fireplace.

Unplugged Rest
Temporarily withdraw from the responsibilities and obligations of everyday life by disconnecting from social media, emails, work and life. Unplugged Rest is the perfect place to get your digital detox and recover from burn out. These fantastic off-grid cabins are usually only an hour’s drive from London and are nestled within nature with some basic rules on arrival. Lock your digital devices in a box, store it away and open it again when you leave. This leaves you to your own thoughts, opening your mind and reconnecting with nature.
It’s a really back to basics kind of stay. There’s no Wi-Fi, but it includes an instant camera to capture memories, books to bury your head in, games to keep you entertained, a radio/tape player to dance to, and they include everything you would need to survive. The best part is waking up for sunrise and watching the colours explode right before your very eyes from the cosy linen sheets of your bed and the large cabin windows. This place is designed for switching off and we can’t recommend it more.

From the delicious Grind coffee machine, to the comfortable double bed where you can watch the stars at night, it’s your own literal bubble.
The Olive Pod offers a seducingly wonderful wood-fired hot tub where you can soak and relax for hours on end, and then head to the fire pit to watch the sunset over the backdrop of trees.
