Cuddle up this winter in a log cabin in Suffolk

Cuddle up this winter in a log cabin in Suffolk

You’re curled up on the sofa with a hot chocolate or red wine as it snows outside. You can barely see the snowdrops through the window because it’s so dark. You’re cuddled up in an isolated log cabin with your loved ones enjoying a winter break.

Tell us this isn’t your ideal winter holiday dream.

We all love being cosy and taking a break away from the big city in the winter months. It’s a great opportunity to recharge before the madness of Christmas. Whether you’re holidaying as a family, a couple or as a group of friends, hiring out (or owning) a winter cabin is a great way to all enjoy a relaxing mini-break.

With winter days so short you can rise late, cook a delicious breakfast and relax on the sofa playing games or watching movies. When it is light outside you can enjoy brisk winter walks and a trip to the local pub to enjoy a pint and pub lunch.

The darkness of the season is the perfect excuse to enjoy each other’s company and securing your own luxury log cabin is a lovely way to spend a weekend in the UK.

Why do log cabins and winter go hand in hand?

What is it about log cabins and snowy scenes that just work so well? Whenever we think of a winter scene or a Christmas card there’s likely going to be a little log cabin on a mountain surrounded by trees and snow. They always look so inviting but where did that image come from?

Essentially, log cabins were the homes of woodsmen and hunters who used the surrounding trees to literally build their own log homes. These were designed to be snug and warm to help the inhabitants stay warm in the harsh winters when they were logging or hunting.

As time went on people began using these cabins recreationally and now, when we think of a log cabin, we think of a cosy winter getaway.

3 fun things to do when you’re holidaying in one of our cabins this winter.

A cosy weekend in a cabin is the perfect holiday if you want to relax, unwind and catch up with friends or loved ones. Spending a few days in a cabin might sound like there’s not much to do but there’s actually loads of fun to be had whether you’re on a romantic getaway or a family holiday. Below we’ve listed just some of the things you can do if you’re on a getaway in one of our cosy cabins.

Are you a couple? How about a romantic evening

A cabin is a great romantic getaway for a couple that want to spend a distraction free weekend together. You can lounge around the living room, drink some wine and enjoy a romantic meal together before hitting the hot tub or watching a film. Perfect couples bliss.

If you’re holidaying as a family then a nature walk is a must

A remote cabin in the middle of the countryside is the perfect place to go if you want to explore and experience nature. If you have the little ones in toe it’s a great opportunity to show them the countryside during the winter months and get some much needed fresh air if you’re on holiday from the city.

Are you a group of friends then it’s a board game and film marathon

If you’re on holiday with a group of friends then this is the best time to crack out a board game and enjoy a film marathon all whilst having a few glasses of wine or beers. Take it back to basics and enjoy each other’s company while watching some Christmas films or playing monopoly. What more could you want?
