FIRE AND ICE AT THE KIRAMI X KIP&NOOK WELLNESS EXPERIENCE

May 20, 2024 Molleigh Cook

A short walk from The Workshop at Kip and Nook, we find a winding path that leads to an oasis of rejuvenation. We’ve come to check out Kip & Nook’s latest wellness retreat, in an attempt to learn about the benefits associated with contrast bathing. The idea is simple - heat up, then cool down and hope that along the way you’ll find that the stresses of daily life have faded away. The outdoor spa is absolute heaven, surrounded by views of the Yorkshire countryside.

A LUXURIOUS HIDEAWAY AT KIP & NOOK, YORKSHIRE

January 4, 2023 Molleigh Cook

Kip & Nook is a little patch of heaven nestled in the Yorkshire countryside and is the ultimate hideaway. As a treat for Key’s birthday this year, I booked Kip & Nook with relaxation and luxury in mind and we were treated to both and then some. Kip & Nook has a collection of unique and quirky places to stay from cosy containers and off-grid hideaways to a barn big enough for 8 guests. There is a stay for everyone in mind. We opted to stay in Big Bro, the newest addition to the Kip and Nook family and had everything we needed for a couple nights of relaxation.

GLAMPING AT THE DRAGON'S REST, HEREFORDSHIRE

January 16, 2022 Molleigh Cook

There is nothing I love more than having the opportunity to spend a long weekend away in the countryside. Having somewhere booked for January is always welcomed as I find the post-christmas gloom of the month can be overwhelmingly dreary. As it turns out The Dragon’s Rest, a trio of cosy cabins with glorious views across rolling fields, was the perfect place to get away for a reset.

Road trip with a vintage campervan

n early September, we found ourselves with a week off work and had (loosely) planned a camper trip. We knew we were off on a road trip, destination yet to be confirmed. We love our camper, our t4, but his spray paint job lasted longer than we anticipated and when the week off arrived, we were two campers minus a van.
