Experience Serenity Under the Stars at Nettlecombe Eco Container

Escape to a truly unique retreat in the heart of Exmoor National Park, where the night sky’s brilliance and nature’s tranquility are yours to embrace. Nettlecombe Eco Container offers an unparalleled getaway, set in a designated dark sky area for breathtaking stargazing and beautiful views across the valley.

The space
Our charming eco container has journeyed across the globe—from its origins as an artist’s studio and gallery in Hackney, London, to its current home amidst Somerset’s stunning landscapes. Inside, you'll find a cozy, wood-paneled sanctuary featuring a luxurious superking bed, a charming table and chairs, and an ambiance that merges artistic history with modern comfort.

Step outside to find a private decking area perfect for soaking in the night sky or unwinding around the fire pit. During the day, our idyllic orchard, nestled in a picturesque valley, invites you to reconnect with nature. Whether you’re savoring a quiet moment in the orchard or simply enjoying the breathtaking views, this space is designed to offer you peace and rejuvenation.

Guest access
You’re welcome to explore our beautifully maintained orchard on a hillside within a unique Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). This serene environment is a haven for nature lovers, and we ask that you respect the space and its ecology. While we may occasionally need to tend to the orchard, we’ll coordinate with you to ensure minimal disruption.

Other things to note
The pathway to the orchard is uphill and can be slippery in wet conditions, so we recommend taking this into consideration. The walk from your car to the container takes about 4 minutes, and you’ll need to carry your belongings up the path.

Indulge in a unique escape where history, nature, and tranquility converge. Book your stay at Nettlecombe Eco Container for an unforgettable retreat in one of the UK's most beautiful landscapes.
