About this property

Off the Beaten Shack | Romantic Woodland Retreat by Bodmin Moor

  • Tucked away in three acres of private woodland on the edge of Bodmin Moor, Off the Beaten Shack is a secluded retreat designed for slowing down, switching off, and reconnecting with nature. Whether you're seeking a romantic escape, a peaceful solo break, or an adventure with your four-legged companion, this cosy cabin offers the perfect balance of comfort and wilderness.

    Inside, you'll find a charming blend of rustic, boho, and vintage style, complete with a king-size Hypnos bed, log burner, fully equipped kitchen, Smart TV, Wi-Fi, and a spacious bathroom with a rain shower. Curl up by the fire, read on the covered veranda as the rain falls, or simply wake to birdsong and views of the surrounding woodland.

    Step outside to enjoy endless walks across Bodmin Moor, relax beside the wildlife pond, picnic in the wildflower meadow, or spend evenings gathered around the fire pit beneath some of Cornwall's darkest skies. The North and South Cornish coasts, along with the Devon border, are all within easy driving distance, making the Shack an ideal base for both relaxation and exploration.

    Dogs are welcome by prior arrangement, and guests have exclusive access to the woodland and meadow throughout their stay. Please note there's a short woodland walk from the parking area to the cabin, which may be muddy and is not suitable for those with limited mobility.

    Come and discover why so many guests say the name doesn't do it justice—Off the Beaten Shack is far more than a shack; it's a place to breathe, unwind, and make lasting memories.
