Elfie

Nestled in the heart of the Shropshire Hills, this unique hideaway is a fairytale getaway, come to life. Only five miles from the Welsh border, this otherworldly structure could have been plucked straight from the pages of a storybook.

Step inside this circular haven and you’ll find wooden walls; branches wrapped in fairy lights and never-ending views of the surrounding countryside. This cosy bolthole for two has everything you’ll need for an enchanting getaway. On one side, you’ll find the kitchenette which features a gas hob, fridge, toaster, kettle and kitchenware for rustling up romantic meals. After a brisk walk in the surrounding countryside, spark up the wood-burner, which also doubles as an oven, and indulge in some delicious slow-cooked treats. For dining, there’s a foldaway dining-table that has a prime position by the large porthole window. You’ll find a selection of boardgames and books to enjoy here too.

Taking centerstage is the sumptuous double bed encircled with twinkling lights and soft linens – we can’t think of a better place to spend lazy mornings than here. Inside, there’s a unique, curved bathroom too, featuring a compostable toilet, wash-basin and a rainfall shower.

Outside, Elfie’s private wrap-around verandah allows you to relax and soak up the infinite views – only punctuated by the amazing wildlife and farm animals you’ll spot. There’s a bench and table to enjoy sun-soaked lunches, as well as a hammock for whiling away peaceful afternoons. Cook up a storm on the charcoal barbecue, with produce from the onsite farm shop, and enjoy the warmth of the chiminea as the sun sinks below the horizon.
