THE CABIN
A simple but beautifully hand crafted cabin that has everything you need for a relaxing and restful stay. A rare chance to live the simpler life you’ve imagined.
More than just a place to stay, Craftsman’s Cabin is full of practical and beautiful things crafted by makers, artists and friends from all around the local area. Craftsman’s Cabin celebrates all that is authentic and made with heart and it is deeply rooted to its surroundings.
INSIDE
Perfect for a couples retreat or a family adventure, the cabin has been designed to be a flexible space. Craftsman’s Cabin is perfectly appointed to make your stay feel just right. The cabin is fully kitted out with everything you might need with timeless interiors and is full of handmade wares and vintage finds.
There’s one king bedroom, and one cosy double bedroom. A small-ish child can sleep on the bench sofa (max. height 1.3m). A travel cot can also fit in the larger room.
OUTSIDE
2 pairs of doors open directly out onto the wrap around the veranda where you can sit and breath in the views that stretch across the moors and catch the incredible sunsets. Soak in the outside roll top tub with a drink whilst watching the swallows or the stars.
Read a book in the rocking chairs or light the fire pit and cook supper under the moon.
Craftsman’s Cabin is on the very edge of the village of Kingsbury Episcopi. A footpath runs alongside the hedge of the meadow that takes you directly out onto the Somerset Levels known as West Moor or straight to the local pub and into the village in the other direction.
There is huge network of footpaths including the Parrett Trail and the village is on Route 339 of the National Cycle Network. So, bring your boots or your bikes.
This is a peaceful, restful spot but not completely secluded as it’s close to the village. You may see a few dog walkers and even the odd fox, badger, deer and some wetland birds.
NEARBY
There is a lot to see and do on your doors step. You may not get back in your car if you want to just decompress in the Somerset countryside but if you wanted to explore, we can connect you with the unique local characters and the hidden treasures in this patch of Somerset. Book onto one of the many courses or experiences to learn a new skill and immerse yourself into crafting something wonderful. If you want to learn about the rich local history of cider making, withy growing and glove making have a look at the Kingsbury Time Travellers website.
Maybe go on a tour of Burrow Hill cider farm and distillery under the iconic Burrow Hill (20 minutes walk) or book dinner at Holm (10mins) for the very best seasonal, local food in Somerset. Pop into the pretty town of Langport and paddle board down the Parratt (10mins) or even take a trip to the Dorset coast (45mins). Or you could sign up to one of the many courses that run nearby from stone carving with Tom Clark or a pottery taster day at Barrington Pottery. All within easy reach.
