The Red Shed - A cosy woodland cabin with woodburner

This cosy 'Red Shed' is tucked away in tranquil 22 acre woodland in the Clwydian Hills, hosted by Rob & Claire. Our quirky one-up, one-down self catering cabin is designed to accommodate 2 people, but could sleep up to 4 if you don't mind being cosy... just ask! It is well equipped and most furnishings, including a beautiful greenwood bed are handmade.

The Red Shed is in a secluded location within Wernog Wood, nestled within the Clwydian Hills. There are stunning views from our wildflower meadow, with far reaching views across the Vale of Clwyd, towards Snowdonia.

There is a public footpath running past the back of the Red Shed, down through Wernog Wood down to Ruthin in one direction, and up to Offa's Dyke in the other.

We live in the house which is 50m from the Red Shed but we have no other nearby neighbours. You may see people coming and going in Wernog Wood as we run a variety of traditional and contemporary craft courses, but these are peaceful as students are using mainly hand tools. Being in a rural setting, don't be surprised to hear normal farm activities and noises taking place in neighbouring fields.

We welcome people attending craft courses in Wernog Wood, as well as walkers & other visitors to the area. All guests must be aged over 18yrs.

N.B. On the 9th, 10th & 11th September we have an Open Studio event (an exhibition of handmade crafts) in Wernog Wood workshop between 10am & 5pm, to which you are very welcome! This building is about 75m from the Red Shed and there may be a lot of cars coming and going from the venue during the day. This may affect your access by car... (but we will sort this out). The evenings will be quiet again.

More than we bargained for

My husband and I booked the cottage for a little getaway over the weekend. We were unprepared for the beautiful surroundings and wonderful silence. The hosts Rob & Clare reached out to us before our arrival with all the information we needed making the journey very smooth. They also gave us information about the local area and walking paths that came in very useful. Upon arrival at the cottage it had everything we needed and Rob had lit the fire which was wonderful and made everything all the more cozy. Absolutely planning to book again and hopefully attend some of the exciting courses on offer.
