Monty’s Retreat
Sleeps 4
Hot Tub – Row Boat – Fire Pit and Log Burner – Private Beach – Pet Friendly
Hiding in the trees on the lake’s edge, Monty’s Retreat is one of our most private cabins. Perfect for honeymoons and romantic getaways. Both the hot tub and fire pit area frame long sunsets over the lake, offering an opportunity to really connect with whoever you have escaped with. The beach and wrap around deck at the front of the cabin get nearly all day sun, so outdoor time can be enjoyed in all seasons.
This hideaway has an open plan living area with a wood burning stove for a truly romantic atmosphere in colder months. From this open plan space, opening to the dining table and kitchen, you can easily enjoy the stunning outlook of the surrounding nature reserve. The bespoke kitchen includes everything needed for making delicious meals whilst on your log cabin holiday. The house is carefully furnished in a homely English style, with antique pieces and tasteful artwork. The modern bathroom features both powerful shower and bath, complete with luxury towels.
Glass doors open out from the kitchen onto the decked veranda, with steps down to its own jetty and rowing boat. There is no better place to wine and dine during the day or on a summers evening. A traditional Finnish hot tub is set into the deck (optional), outdoor furniture, and an open pit BBQ. In the surrounding grounds of the cabin you will also find a small private beach, fire pit area and swing seat hanging from the trees – to make enjoying quality time outside even more memorable. With so much space around your cabin this is also a great choice for a holiday with your dogs. Plentiful walks in the area make it perfect for your four legged friends.

Episode 4
Calmness awaits as soon as you arrive through our gates.
Unwind in your private pool or hot tub, overlooking the expanse of still water that surrounds you. A view that changes every day as seasons evolve and the lakeside habitats that we are carefully creating continue to grow.
From autumn reflections to banks of wild flowers in spring, the kiss of frost on a bracing winters day or a morning mist hanging over the water as another long summer’s day awakens.
And of course, no day is complete without a cosy fire under the stars with the sounds of nature all around. Reflect and reconnect at Log House Holidays. We can’t wait to welcome you back soon.
