Hobbit House is a bespoke new-build holiday let designed to offer something more memorable than a conventional rental cottage. Conceived as a high-end, characterful retreat, the property blends a distinctive, low-slung architectural form with the level of comfort and specification expected from a modern luxury home.
From the outset, the brief was to create a space that felt both playful and refined. The layout is carefully planned to make the most of a compact footprint, with open-plan living and dining areas, a well-appointed kitchen and calm sleeping spaces that feel more like a private suite than a typical holiday let. Generous glazing, considered lighting and built-in storage all contribute to a sense of ease and simplicity for guests.
Behind the scenes, the property is equipped with industry-leading technology more commonly associated with high-end residential projects. Integrated controls for heating, lighting and security, efficient environmental systems ensure that the building is straightforward to manage for the owner and intuitive to use for visitors, while keeping running costs under control.
The interior specification is deliberately restrained yet clearly premium, with durable but luxurious finishes, quality appliances and carefully detailed joinery. Externally, the architecture and landscaping work together to anchor the building into its setting, providing sheltered terraces and outdoor spaces that extend the usable area beyond the internal floor area.
As a finished project, Hobbit House sets a benchmark for what a modern holiday let can offer: a distinctive, well-made building with the feel of a private hideaway, underpinned by the level of technology, comfort and finish that guests at this end of the market now expect.
