ABOUT THE CABIN

Sit back on your deck overlooking the woods and hills, while observing the owls, bats, badgers and song birds in the wildlife haven surrounding you. Located in Britain's only coastal National Park, with minimal light pollution and glorious starlit night skies, Whimsy by the Sea is a magical, tranquil place to rest, relax and revive.

COSY CABIN INTERIOR

The light-filled open plan living space has a double-glazed glass wall looking out over the woods and opening onto the deck. There are two sofas, a wood-burner-style electric fire, a dining area with a table and chairs for four, and a compact kitchen with fridge-freezer, dishwasher, oven and microwave. There are two main bedrooms; one king and one double, plus a separate dressing room / third bedroom (fold up single bed). There's also a shower room with WC, hand basin, and an electric shower (the bath tub just serves as the shower tray).

There is a portable WIFI hot spot, a SMART TV, a DVD library, books and games. Dogs are welcome. If you book direct, I accept up to 4 dogs.

All on one level, the cabin is entered via a short flight of steps onto the deck. Inside the entrance door there’s a coat cupboard with hanging rail, small heater, hooks and space to take off and store shoes, wellies and dog leads. Unfortunately the cabin is not suitable for children under 5 or people with mobility, visual or hearing difficulties due to the potential difficulty of exiting safely in the event of a fire.

SUPERB VALLEY & TREETOP VIEWS

Whimsy by the Sea has a sunny south facing position surrounded by grass, bushes and trees. Sit out on the deck running the width of the cabin, and soak up the amazing views over the valley (the deck is gated too, great for dogs). At the side, there’s a dining patio and an outdoor tap; and there’s also on-site parking.

Bikes, boards, SUPs and other equipment can be stored outside in a sheltered area at the back of the cabin or under the deck. Neither area is enclosed. I have a roll-up wire fence by the dining patio that you can pull around the patio and the bit of lawn at the front to create a safe dog space while you are outside. Roll it up again when you go inside or leave.

TIMBER HILL

Whimsy by the Sea is in Timber Hill, a 100-acre family-run estate shared with around 40 other cedar cabins, many of which are privately owned like mine. The layout of the grounds has been designed with peace, privacy and nature in mind, making it the perfect natural hideaway by the sea.

My cabin is in a great spot at the top end of the grounds, and has lots of space between it and our neighbours. Although there are other cabins around, mine feels very private and secluded. You have your own outside dining patio at the side, and there are large unfenced grassy areas between each cabin, adding to the sense of space and privacy. The grounds themselves are shared.
