The Danish Cabin at Kudhva

• Sleeps: 6
• Bedrooms: 1 (shared)
• Bathrooms: 1 (shared)
• Minimum stay: 2 nights

Kudhva is the Cornish word for “hideout”. So, if you long to escape life’s everyday stresses and strains, there’s simply no better place.

The 45.5-acre site is set within a former slate quarry, nestled across a wildlife-rich Tintagel hilltop that boasts spectacular views of the dramatic North Cornish coastline. Preserving this incredible natural environment is paramount, so the accommodation you’ll find here is all proudly off-grid, and accessible only on foot, through wildflowers and ancient woodland.

Perfect for adventurous souls, The Danish Cabin is an expertly-crafted, one-of-a-kind hideaway (originally built in five days for a Carlsberg shoot!) that sits above a tumbling 40ft waterfall in its own temperate rainforest valley. A stream meanders past the private decking space, providing a gentle soundtrack for catch-up conversations over drinks.

The vista, meanwhile, takes in whispering trees and the old slate quarry beyond, in a way that makes you feel as though you’ve stepped peacefully back in time… when there were no TVs, phones, or laptops to worry about!

Sleeping up to six guests, the clean-lined, open-plan cabin includes a four-bunk cabin space upstairs, and two sofa-beds downstairs. You’ll have basic kitchen essentials, fresh bedding and towels, so you can pack perfectly light – something you’ll be glad of as you take the scenic 10-minute walk from Kudhva’s reception area to the cabin.

You’ll have access to your own private eco-loo close by, as well as a firepit for cooking under the stars. For a sensory treat, pre-order a delicious breakfast hamper, then start your morning with a sizzling meal cooked on the fire. We’re willing to bet you won’t want to cook inside ever again!

If the weather isn’t playing ball, you’ll find a communal kitchen at reception, with a long, sociable dining table for chatting with new friends (there’s a regular programme of culinary events, too). You’ll also find hot showers and flushing loos here, as well as solar-powered plug sockets for phone-charging, and a small shop.

More information

What else? Take an energising dip in the wild swimming lake that’s fed by the waterfall,  or book a session in the Japanese standing hot tub (an additional fee applies) for a stargazing treat. Off-site, you’re a short walk away from the mesmerising North Cornish coast, where you can try your hand – and test your balance! – at surfing, Cornwall’s favourite pastime.

If that all sounds like too much effort, you’re free to roll out your beach towel on the nearby Trebarwith Strand Beach, which is perfectly nestled between Tintagel and Port Isaac. And with not one but two of the area’s best pubs a mere wander away, you won’t have to worry about where to find welcome refreshment.

Things to note

The path to the cabin is steep and untamed – a backpack rather than a suitcase is recommended, along with sturdy footwear. Please visit the property website for details of the other off-grid accommodation options available. Whole site bookings for large groups considered.
