Near Ludlow, Shropshire
Four off-grid cabins tucked away on the Downton Hall Estate, 5,000 acres of rolling Shropshire countryside. Each sits on its own, in a field or in private woodland, with an outdoor copper bath placed for the view, a wood burner inside and a fire pit of its own.
No noise, no neighbours. Just rolling hills, open sky and total quiet.
There’s no wifi and there are no plug sockets, by design. Every cabin has USB charging points, and power banks can be pre-ordered. Each is a short walk from the parking area, between 70m and 250m.
Ludlow, a historic market town with a castle, a brewery and plenty of pubs, is ten minutes away, and Mortimer Forest, home to deer, birds of prey and butterflies, is close by.
Prices are live and follow your dates.

We stayed in the Wren and it had everything we needed, and the breathtaking view made us feel like we were in our own little world - we especially loved the outdoor bathtub! We couldn’t have asked for a more peaceful and unforgettable experience. Without a doubt, we’ll be recommending this place to all our family and friends. Thank you!

We absolutely love the REST+WILD experience - we have visited The Robin in the Shropshire Hills 4 times now and it never disappoints! The perfect retreat for a little rest and recovery in a beautiful setting - we will certainly be visiting again

We were looking for the perfect escape to pause on life. Then we found Rest+Wild. So we ran away to the Shropshire Hills. Into the woods, just us, the wilderness, and the quiet hum of nature. No noise, no rush. Just time to unwind and pause, reconnecting, and recharging again.

The most perfect get away from it all. Everything in the cabins is luxurious and you can tell so much thought has gone into them. The cabins are so so private meaning you can completely relax! The views were unbelievable. We will be booking again and will be regular customers. Could not recommend more!!
