Trace Lifestyle / Woodshed press trip

All of the hygge

The Woodshed blends perfectly into it’s surroundings, with silvered timber cladding and whitewashed wood panels that make it almost disappear into the hills behind. The large glazed doors mean the light floods inside, allowing a constant view of the rolling hills and the ever-changing sky.

The interiors are paired back but thoughtful with a laid back vibe that fuses understated, minimal design with comfort and style. Toasty underfloor heating, bare wood walls and soft furnishings come together to create the perfect space for a proper hygge experience. The mezzanine style interior means that the Woodshed manages to feel both open and snug at the same time.

Kepping cosy

Storm Ciara hit on the Saturday morning of our weekend stay and the weather outside was wild! Anywhere else I might have been sad to be trapped inside but it was actually wonderful. We kept the fire lit, drank hot coffee and watched the storm out of the huge glazed doors. I felt so cosy nestled up by the fire with my book while the wind whistled around the cabin. In our fast paced world it was the perfect opportunity to properly slow down and actually relax, it was the calmest I’d felt in such a long time.

Our weekend at the The Westside Woodshed was the absolute definition of slow travel, we both came home feeling so relaxed and recharged. I think it is good for the soul to be lost in nature for a few days.
