Description from owner

Description

Rebecca is idyllically situated on the banks of a mountain stream in the heart of the Preseli hills, with the Pembrokeshire coast never far away. With the simple luxury of ethical eco-sustainability & no mod cons, Rebecca offers something truly different.

The absence of electricity with its busy reminder of modern life allows for an unusual peace and tranquillity and a real connection with the abundant wildlife here, offering the opportunity for a wonderful holiday/adventure whilst leaving a satisfyingly light footprint.

Rebecca is built on fine 100 year old wheels and provides intimate, elegant, cosy and perfectly appointed self-catering accommodation, with double bed, 2 small tables, 2 fold-up chairs, and underbed storage. The fully equipped kitchen area in the Hut has a dresser,a 2 ring gas burner, ship's toaster and locally handmade woodburning stove which will keep you toasty warm and can also be used to heat kettle/pans. The Treebog/washroom a few feet from the Hut houses a washbasin feed by rainwater and caters for simple toilet and washing needs (see photos). Rebecca has her own private patio area overlooking stream and mountain - rural, peaceful and private.

Ideal for walking, birdwatching, reading, painting/drawing, dreaming, stargazing, writing, romantic break, retreat or simply getting away from it all.

Please note: this simple accommodation - no electricity, no hot running water, no fridge. We provide a freezer box with ice packs from our freezer if required. Water for cooking, washing-up etc is from our own spring via an outdoor tap: we provide bottled spring water for drinking if you prefer. Bathing can be done in the Treebog using kettle heated water - or you might like to take a bath in the stream. Lighting is battery lanterns, LED lights, torches, safe candles.

Provided in the price: all bedding (inc spare blankets) and towels, 2 hot water bottles, all washing products (all eco friendly), candles, spare batteries, picnic blanket, books, reading lights, playing cards, recycled looroll, firelighters, kindling and one basket of logs (for further requirements we ask for £5 a basket).

Bed linen is fairtrade organic cotton; the duvet is oganic merino wool. All interior and exterior decorating is with eco paints.

There is a firepit for bonfires just outside the Hut.

“Perfect in every way”

Reviewed 19 Jun 2022

Wonderful and incredibly special place. Secluded , feels miles away from everywhere and yet just a drive away to places we wanted to visit. Immaculate, everything you could possibly need . I was a little apprehensive about the tree bog before we arrived ….no need it actually makes you wonder why we bother with modern bathrooms at all ! The wildflowers in the jug lovely touch. For our second week of holiday we moved on to the Brecon Beacons in a cabin with electric and running water and we wished we were back in ‘Rebecca’ the whole time . Hope it’s not too long before we can stay again .
