Welcome to Quabbs Cabin – A Romantic Eco Retreat in the Heart of Green Mid Wales
Hidden away on a peaceful sheep farm in the rolling hills near Knighton and Offa’s Dyke, Quabbs Cabin is a handcrafted hideaway made for those seeking seclusion, serenity, and a deeper connection with nature. Thoughtfully designed and built by the owners using local and reclaimed materials, this eco-conscious escape blends rustic charm with luxurious touches, offering an unforgettable retreat for two.
Inside, the cabin exudes warmth and character. The open-plan living space features a comfortable lounge, French doors framing sweeping views across the Mid Wales hills, and a fully equipped kitchen complete with everything you could need — from a hob, electric oven, and fridge-freezer to thoughtful extras like a slow cooker, air fryer, and coffee station. You’ll even find a welcoming homemade cake on arrival, along with milk in the fridge and a cupboard stocked with essentials — the little touches that make this cabin feel like home.
In the tranquil bedroom, a handmade bed looks out across the meadow, with double French doors that open onto a covered porch — perfect for lazy mornings with birdsong and fresh country air. The boutique-style bathroom is a true sanctuary, featuring a deep copper bath, double rainfall shower, and a touch of magic from the rose-gold mirror ball that sparkles as you soak beneath the bubbles.
Step outside to enjoy a wraparound porch and sundeck with far-reaching countryside views, or unwind beneath the stars in your wood-fired hot tub. For a deeper sense of calm, visit the Sauna Shack — a rustic infrared sauna hut with doors that open directly to the meadow — before cooling off under the outdoor rainfall shower or taking a bracing dip in the cold plunge barrel. For those quiet, dreamy afternoons, sway between the twin hammocks in the glade and let the world slow down.
Sustainability is at the heart of Quabbs Cabin. From the use of locally sourced materials and homemade eco toiletries to a seasonally decorated interior and a welcome basket of Welsh treats, every detail has been designed to reflect the natural rhythm and beauty of the surrounding landscape. The cabin is dog-friendly too, so even your four-legged friend can share in the adventure.
Whether you’re escaping for a romantic getaway, celebrating a special moment, or simply seeking stillness in nature, Quabbs Cabin offers an experience of peace, comfort, and quiet luxury — a place where time slows down, stars shine brighter, and every detail feels like it was made just for you.
