Cool stay of the week: a romantic hillside cabin in the Peak District

Neatly perched atop Eagle Tor in the Peak District, Boulder Field Cabin is our pick for this week’s Cool Stay of the Week.

Both idyllic and romantic, this retreat for two has been beautifully handcrafted, offering a rustic, rural aesthetic. The views across the valley are unparalleled, especially as the autumn colours set in.

A quaint cabin that smartly makes use of its space, there’s a futon sofa bed that can be folded up during the day and is perfectly positioned to take in the 180 degree vista. The cabin also has a wood burning stove to keep you nice and toasty in the colder months, as well as a fold down table and space to charge your electricals.

Cook up a storm in the covered outdoor kitchen area, where you can sit and eat al fresco when the weather's warm. Here there is running water, a brand new gas BBQ with a gas ring, as well as a table and chairs. Basics such as pots, pans, kettle, cafetière, crockery, cutlery are all provided. The cabin's smart composting loo sits in its own wooden cabin 10 metres from the main space.

Perhaps the most romantic aspect of Boulder's Field Cabin is its wood-fired hot tub. This sits on a boulder and looks out across the valley, meaning you can hop in for a relaxing soak with a bottle of bubbly, whilst taking in the incredible view. There's also an outdoor shower nestled among the rocks. Guests are provided with fluffy towels and an Earth Kind shampoo bar.

When it comes to venturing out, the cabin sits on 15 acres of private land. This means you have plenty of privacy and peace, and lots of nooks and crannies to explore. If you head further afield then the entire Peak District National Park is right on your doorstep with miles and miles of incredible mountain scenery, pretty walking routes, and lovely country pubs. You even have some great hiking and climbing options that are accessible right from your front door.
