  • Peaceful site with a two-bedroom cabin near the Wales–England border
  • Alderford Lake watersports 10 minutes’ drive; Chirk Castle 35 minutes
  • Dog-friendly; well-equipped kitchen; sun lounger in the garden
A peaceful site surrounded by splendid Welsh countryside, Nook Cabin sits close to the border with England, a 15-minute drive from the Shropshire market town of Whitchurch. Fenn’s, Whixall & Bettisfield Mosses National Nature Reserve, with its wild peat bogs and heathland (not to mention thriving birdlife, including curlews and hen harriers), stretches just to the south. Accommodation is in (you guessed it) a cabin – a two-bedroom log cabin, to be precise. And a pretty well-equipped one, too. There’s a bathroom with a hot-water shower, plus a kitchen with a microwave oven, a kettle and a range of utensils, along with a table where you can gather the troops for family meals. If you’d rather head to the pub for a traditional dinner, the nearest one is about 10 minutes’ drive away, in Hanmer. Added bonus: after eating here, you can kickstart your digestion with a stroll on the banks of Hanmer Mere lake. Back at base, step outside and breathe in the clean forest air as you unwind on a sun lounger with a glass of wine. Active types can lace up their boots, put the dog on the lead and set off to explore the area. Within a 10-minute drive, you can reach the Llangollen branch of the Shropshire Union Canal, with its waterfront paths, fishing spots and canoe launches. If you’re into watersports, head to Alderford Lake (10 minutes) for an inflatable adventure course, in addition to paddleboard and canoe hire.

2 bedroom cabin

Liked Fantastic cabin set in idyllic countryside, a very peaceful location.
The cabin was a really good space, everything was provided and Bryan the host was amazing !!

We arrived late after travelling through a storm and Bryan had kindly waited for us to arrive to show us around.
Bryan the host was a proper legend and provided us with pizza on the first night as we had not been able to shop for dinner !!

We were able to relax outside after the storm had passed with a small fire in the fire pit provided and spent our evening relaxing on the outside furniture, the rocking bench on the porch was super cool !!

The cabin was equipped with everything you would need and the decor was different and fun

We loved our stay at the Nook and were sad we only stayed one night and had to leave. Highly recommend and we will definitely come back

2 bedroom cabin

Liked If you want to stay in a really quiet, rustic setting, away from everyone and close to nature, this is the perfect hideaway. Beautiful setting, unusual and quirky. A sweet log cabin in a rural paradise. Perfect!

Disliked Could do with a few extra utensils but we managed I.e … bottle opener and cheese grater 😊 but things we managed without :)

Liked Everything, we had a wonderful stay here, Bryan the owner was so helpful and really made our stay perfct, nothing was too much trouble The Nook Cabin had everything you could need for a relaxing stay and is exactly as described in the description, if your looking for an escape from the hussle of life amongst nature then I can't recommend the Nook enough, tranquil and quiet , but with all the home comforts you could neeed , well equipped kitchen , large bathroom and two comfy bedrooms with a lovely veranda to sit out on plenty of seating . Shops are only a ten min drive away so handy for supplies. Thank you Bryan you were a perfect host .

Disliked Going home !

2 bedroom cabin

Liked Absolutely amazing so peaceful and so accommodating and welcoming was a last-minute booking and yet all standards were still met. My two young girls were very happy to see that there was two horses in the field out the front of the cabin. It was nice to feel safe and away from the world to enjoy some downtime quality time with the babies.
We have already said that we will most definitely be back ,,

Local attractions

Inspired by and based on Tom Blofeld’s children’s books, the adventure grounds at BeWILDerwood Cheshire (15 minutes’ drive) include treehouses, rope bridges, zipwires and assorted timber structures in the middle of a lush forest. There are also picnic areas, plus organised activities throughout the year. Built in the late 13th century, National Trust - Chirk Castle (35 minutes) has elegant interiors hung with tapestries and paintings, plus displays of medieval weapons and other decorative objects. In the surrounding parkland, you might be able to spot birdlife including woodpeckers and kestrels, as well as a well-preserved stretch of Offa’s Dyke. High atop a green hill overlooking Llangollen is Castell Dinas Brân (40 minutes), which was built in the 1260s and destroyed less than 20 years later by the English. Take a stroll among its imposing ruins while taking in spectacular and far-reaching views of the Dee Valley.
