About Unplugged cabins
We make off-grid log cabins in some of the best corners of the UK countryside. Each one sits within an hour or two of a major city - ours in Herefordshire are tucked into a private estate near Kentchurch, right on the edge of the Black Mountains. Why are we different from other cabins? Your phone goes in the lockbox when you arrive.
3 NIGHT DIGITAL DETOX
The cabin experience
Swap your phone for a Nokia with Snake loaded up, an instant camera with film, board games, a cassette player, a stack of books, and a lot of outside. Reggie is hidden in a small woodland and Daisy and Bella come with a hot tub. All are dog-friendly.
NOT JUST A NORMAL BREAK
Backed by science
We fix our stays at 3 or 4 nights for a reason. Research shows cortisol levels begin to drop meaningfully after 72 hours in nature and away from screens. Sleep quality improves. The reflex to pick up your phone starts to fade. We built the stays around that window because one night is nice, but three nights is where something actually shifts.
In the local area
By foot or by car, there is amazing nature to explore by our cabins in Herefordshire — from Garway Hill to the Black Mountains with great local gems in walking distance.
Garway Hill
Open moorland walking a few minutes from the Kentchurch estate, with views across Herefordshire into Wales. The views are 360 degrees and you might even spot the resident ponies.
The Black Mountains
The eastern edge of the Brecon Beacons starts almost on the doorstep - Sugar Loaf, Skirrid Fawr, the Offa's Dyke path. Big ridge walks, big skies, and exactly the kind of landscape you need.
Sauna and Supper Club
Dragons Gate Wild Swimming Lake has a wild sauna with incredible views of valley is just 15 mins away. Under The Nut Tree hosts great BYOB supper clubs on Friday and Saturday evenings.
Questions about our cabins in Herefordshire
Frequently asked questions about Unplugged cabins in Herefordshire.
How far are the cabins from London and Birmingham?
Our Herefordshire cabins near Kentchurch are around 2 hours from London, just over an hour from Birmingham, and about 1.5 hours from Bristol by car. The exact drive time is listed on each cabin page.
Do I need a car to get to the cabins?
The cabins are best reached by car but you can reach the them via train a taxi ride.
Are the cabins in Herefordshire dog-friendly?
Most of them, yes. Each cabin listing shows whether dogs are welcome, and a few are set up with fully enclosed outdoor spaces. We know your dog also needs a break from the city.
What actually happens with my phone?
There's a lockbox in every cabin for you to lock your phone away. Alongside it you get a Nokia, an instant camera, a cassette player, books, and board games. It's completely self-policed so you can access your phone if you need to.
Why 3 nights? Can I book for less?
All our stays are fixed at 3 nights and we're deliberate about it. The research on digital detox and stress recovery consistently points to 72 hours as the threshold where the physiological change actually happens - better sleep, lower cortisol, slower nervous system. A weekend break is lovely. Three nights offline is something that actually carries over when you get back.
Is there any wifi or phone signal in the cabins?
No wifi, by design. Phone signal varies by location - some cabins have 5G, some have none.
