Log Cabins in the Midlands: Where to Stay for a Cabin Break

The Midlands doesn’t always get the credit it deserves for a cabin break. There are lodges in the Shropshire hills, by the Welsh border, around the Malverns, deep in the Peak District and out on the Lincolnshire Wolds, and most of them are within an easy drive of Birmingham, Nottingham, Leicester and Coventry. Here is where to look, and some of the cabins we list in each area.

We get asked about the midlands alot and would love to hear from people who often have holidays in the area. Where are your favourite places you have stayed and which are your favourite locations.

Shropshire

The pick of the West Midlands for a cabin break. Hills like the Long Mynd and Wenlock Edge, quiet market towns such as Ludlow and Church Stretton, and lots of lodges near Oswestry and Ellesmere close to the Welsh border. Many have hot tubs, and plenty take dogs.

Herefordshire and Worcestershire

Orchards, rivers and the Malvern Hills, with Hay-on-Wye and Ledbury close by. Quieter than the bigger parks further north, and a good choice for a peaceful couple’s break.

Staffordshire and Warwickshire

The closest options to Birmingham and Coventry. Cannock Chase and the edge of the Peak District around Leek in Staffordshire, and countryside near Stratford-upon-Avon in Warwickshire. Handy for a short break without a long drive.

The Peak District

Technically the East Midlands, and the best known spot in the region for a cabin break. Bakewell, Matlock Bath and Ashbourne are all close, with walks for every level and a cosy pub at the end of most of them.

Lincolnshire

More cabins than you might expect. Woodhall Spa and Horncastle sit among forest and heathland, the Wolds are perfect for quiet walks, and the coast around Skegness and Mablethorpe has long sandy beaches that welcome dogs out of season.

Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire and Rutland

A handful of cabins close to Rutland Water, Sherwood Forest and the Charnwood hills. Good for a night or two close to home, or a family break with bike rides and lakeside walks.
