Saltbox Escapes, Forest of Dean, Coleford


In December 2024, we delivered and installed 2 of our Finman Retreats for Saltbox Escapes, based in Coleford, Gloustershire. It was a year in the making, after speaking initially to Simon in 2023.
These quaint retreats are nestled in a meadow in the Forest of Dean & Wye Valley. Designed for couples and families alike, these huts combine fairytale charm with modern comfort for an unforgettable escape in nature.
It was such a massive project to complete so far from home however, with our Essex based installation team, no stone was left unturned, and the results speak from themselves!


Inside
Each retreat features a circular living area with a double sofa bed, making a perfect spot to unwind with a movie or good book. A side bedroom offers a king-size double bed, dressed in quality linens, ensuring a peaceful night’s sleep.
A well-equipped kitchenette with hob, microwave, fridge and freezer - everything you need for preparing hearty breakfasts, easy lunches or picnic supplies.
Enjoy a 42-inch Smart TV with streaming apps like Netflix and Amazon, plus excellent Wi-Fi throughout the property and there are plenty of electric sockets and charging points.


Outside
Outside, the terrace offers alfresco moments with a firepit and umbrella. Across the 1½ acres of shared secure meadow and gardens, there is plenty of space to stretch out, play, explore or simply soak up the peaceful surroundings and wildlife.
