The UK has some seriously special settings to host visitors from home or away on holidays and long weekends. Be it enjoying remote spots amid centuries-old woodlands or direct access to an isolated stretch of beach, there is an array of impressive escapes to experience the Great Outdoors first-hand. Think cosy chalet interiors, budget log cabins ideal for families trying to cut costs and luxury romantic retreats in home-from-home lodges. And it isn’t just in the summer months that you can escape to the country, despite the predictably unpredictable British weather. Chalets, lodges and log cabins are often fitted with hot tubs, sun decks, wood-burning fires and BBQs to accommodate every season. If you’re looking for a place to spend a bank holiday with friends or to celebrate a big birthday with the whole family, check out these stylish lodges, cabins and shepherds’ huts that are on par with any country cottage stay.
