Sponsored post | Live the Dream with Blackdown

Iona Bower March 20, 2024

As Part of its Fusion Brace hut, Blackdown Shepherd Huts has created the ultimate bedroom retreat to switch off and fully recharge. Can someone dim the lights please?

There are times in life when the busyness of the everyday builds and builds and the only remedy is to retreat to the sanctuary of a serene bedroom, with a good mag (The Simple Things, of course) and a warming mug of tea.

Better still, instead of collapsing, exhausted, into a weary sleep, imagine if you could properly unwind and recharge, perhaps with a long, leisurely bath before curling up under to covers to drift into a dreamy slumber.

If this sounds completely idyllic, then Blackdown Shepherd Huts may just have created the dreamiest of bedrooms thanks to its Fusion Brace hut – its most innovative shepherd hut to date with two huts joined together perpendicularly by Blackdown’s signature glass walkway.

Fusion’s full-height, rich velvet headboard, against which you can arrange a mountain of pillows to sink into, is sumptuously paired with a handcrafted Naturalmat king-sized mattress, both are made for pure relaxation. Alongside the Tom Raffield bedside lamps, which add a warm and cosy glow.

The curved stargazer roof window guarantees the best seat in the house for nature’s light show – lie in bed and watch the stars, and once sleepiness sets in, simply pull the blind for a restful night’s sleep. Come the morning, you’ll wake, fully refreshed. Open the blind and let the sun’s rays wash over you, gently warming your skin. In fact, dragging yourself out of bed will likely be the day’s biggest challenge.

Designed to be screen free, the Fusion bedroom is slower living at its finest. Instead, immerse yourself in a great book or put pen to paper and journal your thoughts away in a beautiful notebook, always, of course, with a good mug of tea close to hand.

Whether it’s at home or away, a night in Blackdown Shepherd Hut’s Fusion bedroom is sure to leave you feeling ready to tackle life’s busyness once again, and will certainly inspire future sweet dreams.

The Simple Things

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
