About Chilterns Bunkhouse
Nestling in the woodlands of the Ashridge Estate is the Chilterns Bunkhouse, a restored barn with no mobile coverage and wildlife roaming all around.This rustic accommodation comprises two restored barns, one for sleeping and one for cooking and chilling.
It’s an ideal place to stay for those looking to spend quality time together and live in harmony with nature for a while. Wild fallow deer regularly roam around outside and at dawn, the woods come alive with sound.
The remote location and lack of mobile phone signal should help you disconnect from modern life. But if you’re desperate to use your mobile, don’t worry as a short walk through the woods or to the nearby village of Aldbury should give you some signal.

Opening times
Due to social distancing measures and other requirements, we’ve made the difficult decision to postpone all bunkhouse, bothy and working holidays until Wednesday 30 September 2020.
