Dragonfly

Reached by a gentle walk across meadows on a working Warwickshire farm, Dragonfly offers something increasingly rare in the modern world: genuine peace and complete disconnection from everyday life. This cosy cabin for two sits on the banks of a private lake, surrounded by wildlife and far removed from the hustle and bustle. The lack of mobile phone signal in the immediate vicinity becomes a blessing rather than an inconvenience, encouraging couples to truly relax and reconnect. Inside, the single-storey layout feels thoughtfully designed for romantic retreats. A wood-burning stove provides the focal point for the living space, whilst the sleek kitchen has everything needed for intimate dinners. Large windows frame the lake views that make this cabin so special. The wood-fired hot tub sits on the deck overlooking the water, requiring a little more effort to heat than electric alternatives but rewarding that patience with a more authentic and satisfying experience. Guests describe watching the sunset over the lake whilst soaking in the naturally heated water as utterly unforgettable. Wildlife abounds here. Swans, ducks and moorhens populate the lake, whilst the surrounding meadows attract birds of prey and wild rabbits. Many visitors find themselves becoming accidental birdwatchers during their stay. Warwick Castle, Stratford-upon-Avon and the Cotswolds are all within easy reach for day trips, though many guests find themselves reluctant to leave the tranquil setting. The Friendly Inn in nearby Frankton Village provides excellent meals for evenings when cooking feels like too much effort. Dragonfly delivers the ultimate digital detox in a setting that feels worlds away from ordinary life.
