Our ten beliefs

View all

#1 Look up.

Off-grid shacks strip away the distractions of modern life, allowing us to reconnect with the natural rhythms of sunrise, sunset, and the changing seasons.

#2 Reconnect with natures rhythms.

Reconnect with natures rhythms. Life evolved in 24-hour days, against the backdrop of sunrises and sunsets. Humans (and almost all plants, trees, animals and microorganisms) have an internal, 24-hour circadian…

#3 Embrace the art of disconnection.

In a hyper-connected world, disconnecting from technology is a radical act of self-care. shacks offer a sanctuary for digital detox and mindful presence.

#4 Rediscover the power of silence.

Away from the constant noise and demands of daily life, silence becomes a source of clarity, inspiration, and inner peace.

#5 Foster meaningful connections.

Shared experiences in nature forge deep bonds with loved ones. Shacks become spaces for intimate conversations, shared meals, and lasting memories.

#6 Unleash creativity and imagination.

Simplicity fosters creativity. Without distractions, the mind is free to wander, explore new ideas, and tap into a wellspring of inspiration.

#7 Embrace the beauty of imperfection.

Off-grid living is about embracing the raw, unfiltered beauty of nature. It’s about finding joy in simplicity and appreciating the imperfections that make each shack unique.

#8 Live with intention.

Shack life encourages us to live with greater intention- ality. We become more mindful of our consumption, our impact on the environment, and what truly matters in life.

#9 Find freedom in simplicity.

By shedding material possessions and embracing a simpler way of life, we discover a profound sense of freedom and contentment.

#10 Return to the wild within.

Nature is a powerful mirror. Time spent in the wilder- ness allows us to reconnect with our own wildness, intuition, and innate wisdom.

“Three days spent in blissful peace, star gazing after a long day of hiking in the Welsh hills…Just the thing! Location very easy to reach. Thestylish cabin, affording stunning views.”

– Elliott

We honestly loved all of it. The surroundings were just beautiful, we loved watching the partridges whilst having a lazy morning. I loved the cassette tapes, the coffee and mostly the fire. We walked along the river to Llangollen which was beautiful.

– Ciara

We’ve wanted to stay in a secluded cabin for years and Tawny didn’t disappoint. We loved sitting and reading with freshly ground coffee next to the huge window during the day and a glass of wine by the fire in the evenings. Beautifully private whilst also being just a 10 minute drive from good food and coffee in Tarporley. We’ll…

– Mark

We absolutely loved every minute just spent in the shack – that was probably our favourite part of the trip. It was so cosy with the storms we had and the fire keeping us warm.We want to also note that we tend to go on cabin trips about once a year, and this cabin was by far the best we’ve…

– Katy

For us we just moved the whole being in a field in the Shack, being off grid and just stopping! The shack was so well equipped, and we christened the wood burner on a wet day, and it was really cosy. We loved being woken up by the sheep clip clopping over the decking each morning and then rubbing themselves…

– Katie

Simply idyllic! It truly is an escape from the world, but with all the creature comforts that this type of retreat is usually lacking. Can’t wait to book our next stay.

– Julie

It was fab, super beautiful 10/10. We noticed Compost loo could get a bit fousty when we were out all day so maybe some additional air freshener/spray for the bathroom, but that was minor.Have a lovely time and super quick problem solving from the team when the gas ran out – fixed within 30 mins.

– Emily

We had a fantastic stay, perfect and want to rebook.Very small points of improvement, nit picking really- fix the gate to carpark, maybe attach a small sign on gate signifying Altair. Solid cafetière instead as well of coffee mug filter. Otherwise all was brill!Get one in the Peak District/Derbyshire, it would do very well!

– Altiar

Loved our stay! The accommodation was very peaceful views! The bed was very comfy and it was great to escape reality!

– Sam

We had a fantastic stay at Alcor Cabin. The facilities were excellent, providing everything we needed for a comfortable off-grid experience. It was the perfect getaway, allowing us to fully disconnect while still enjoying all the comforts of home. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy some peace and tranquility in a beautiful, secluded setting

– Seycha

Good morning Thank you so much. I really enjoyed my stay at Altair. It was more than I expected, and I didn’t want to leave 😇. The views and serenity gave me peace of mind. I really enjoyed spending my birthday at your place. Will do it again soon

– Kayleigh

We came with our two children (10 years old & 7 years old) and all thoroughly enjoyed it. The kids really loved their bunks whilst I adored sitting on the bed & watching the world go by. The setting was beautiful and the expansive space meant the kids could play & be noisy without having to be mindful of any…

– Altair

The stay at Adhara was amazing! It felt so private and was perfect for the dogs. The shack had everything we needed and we loved the comfy bed and the blackout blinds. Never slept so well! We will definitely book with Shacks again.

– Lianne

We loved our stay in the Hydra cabin, everything was perfect, the walk to the cabin from the car in a field with sheep, to the silence of the night with a nice warm fire.Location was really good and we had rainy nice weather which helped to. Would definitely do this again,

– Wayne

We loved out off grid stay, we had everything we needed and it was totally relaxing and so nice just to unwind. Everything we needed for the dogs was catered for as well, and they had a great time too.

– Cyra

Incredible location, unspoilt views, fabulous ‘shack’. So peaceful & tranquil… couldn’t have wanted more. Will most definitely try other locations!

– Kerry

What a magical place.We arrived in a snow storm, luckily the directions were clear with the help of what.three.words, as you couldn’t see ten foot in front of you, so finding it was no problem.The hut was so cosy and well stocked, the bed was incredible, and when the fire was lit, it was beautifully toasty. I’d suggest paying for…

– Andrew

100% couldn’t recommend this more. Getting back to nature was great. Had all tge modern facilities. Will absolute be going back. Don’t be put off by the compost toilet either

– Mike

My stay was perfect! The shack was very well designed and thought out. If you are looking to get away from the busy 9-5 and reconnect to nature through camping but in a more luxurious way then I highly recommend.

– Jack M

A beautiful peaceful off grid cabin in a great area, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and the chance to completely unwind away from the world 😊

– Madeleine A

Had a blissful stay at Vega above Llangollen mid March. I really needed a break from everything and it delivered – I didn’t see a soul other than rabbits or pheasants for the week! The weather was gorgeous, but still early in the year so chilly at night – not a problem at Vega with lots of wood for the…

– Jules J

Our stay at Altair was exactly what we needed. Off grid, in nature, to connect as a family. We spent the 3 days together playing games, exploring outside, and eating more marshmallows on the campfire that we really should have! The highlight for our 2 girls (aged 8 & 10) were the bed boxes! They absolutely loved these little hiding…
