Full instructions are provided. • Fridge only. No freezer 🌿 This is a remote countryside retreat on a private alpaca farm, not within walking distance of shops, restaurants or town. A car is essential. The hut is designed as a peaceful, off-grid countryside escape, so it is quite remote and best suited to guests looking for a quiet, nature-based stay. Perfect for guests who are looking to switch off, slow down, and enjoy nature - not for those seeking a busy location. Electricity is supplied by a large solar and battery system rather than mains power, allowing the cabin to run comfortably while keeping its environmental footprint low. 🚫 No Dogs Policy To protect the wellbeing of our animals and the safety of all guests, our site is strictly dog-free. No dogs are allowed anywhere on site - including in cabins, vehicles, or outdoor areas. Why this is important - Our alpacas are the heart of our farm. They are particularly vulnerable to stress, especially when pregnant. The presence or scent of dogs can cause them serious harm and may risk the loss of a pregnancy. For their safety, and to protect our livelihood, we must enforce this rule without exceptions. Thank you for helping us keep our alpacas safe and healthy! 🦙 We look forward to welcoming you to the Darling Woods of May!
