If you're staying with us at the cabin and fancy a gentle day out, I'd highly recommend a little outing on the Sabrina Boat in nearby Shrewsbury, a lovely, slow-paced river cruise that feels just right when you're in the mood for something peaceful, but with a splash of charm.
Moored on the River Severn, Sabrina offers daily cruises around this historic town — giving you beautiful views of Shrewsbury’s spires, red brick buildings, and lush riverside gardens from the water. There’s something wonderfully calming about gliding along the river, with birds flitting across the surface and the occasional duck family floating by like they own the place (and honestly, they kind of do).
You can book in advance online, and there's even a little bar on board if you're tempted by a coffee, a tipple, or afternoon tea.
It's the perfect way to enjoy a slow morning or afternoon before heading back to your woodland hideaway — maybe via one of Shrewsbury’s fabulous indie bakeries or delis to stock up on picnic supplies or treats for the cabin.
Nature, calm, and cake. What more could you want?
