The water is collected from a natural spring that comes up to the surface just next to the kitchen area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the kitchen area, there are facilities to cook over open fire with pots, pans and a mesh for BBQs. There is even a large wood-fired oven for you to make pizzas in. It also has a \u201cmilitary refrigerator\u201d (a special fridge that cools with ice blocks) to store your food and make sure it keeps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for the spa area, there is one wood-heated sauna and two wood-heated bathing barrels (\u201cbadtunnor\u201d). If you don\u2019t want to wash yourself in the lake, there is a shower that you need to heat with wood and then pump while showering to get the pressure up.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"480\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.naturetravels.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/back-to-basics-floating-2.jpg\" alt=\"A session in the wood-fired bathing barrels is available as optional extra.\" class=\"wp-image-234\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.naturetravels.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/back-to-basics-floating-2.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.naturetravels.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/back-to-basics-floating-2-221x300.jpg 221w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A session in the wood-fired bathing barrels is available as optional extra.

It\u2019s a short paddle \u2013 just a couple of minutes \u2013 and at the floating cabin there are ropes with hooks that you just hook on to both ends of the canoe to moor it safely for the night.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"618\" src=\"https:\/\/www.naturetravels.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/back-to-basics-floating-5.jpg\" alt=\"The Floating Cabin jetty with canoe moored alongside.\" class=\"wp-image-237\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.naturetravels.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/back-to-basics-floating-5.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.naturetravels.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/back-to-basics-floating-5-300x290.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Floating Cabin jetty with canoe moored alongside.

It has a wood burner for heating and paraffin lamps and candles for light when the evenings get darker. There is a small outdoor toilet in one corner for when it\u2019s needed, so no need to take the canoe ashore!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.naturetravels.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/back-to-basics-floating-4.jpg\" alt=\"Preparing a meal over open fire.\" class=\"wp-image-236\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.naturetravels.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/back-to-basics-floating-4.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.naturetravels.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/back-to-basics-floating-4-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Preparing a meal over open fire.

Photo: Sofia Carter<br>\nThe cabin also has an outdoor cooking area and an ice fridge, so if you wanted to, you can stay out there the whole time and not go ashore at all. There is a small ladder leading from the jetty down into the water for those morning dips or sunset swims.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the time of my stay was the middle of September, it was dark when it was time for me to leave the \u201cspa\u201d area and take my canoe out to my cabin for the night. I had been out quickly to drop my luggage off previously, and thankfully remembered to bring my headtorch, which I was glad of when I now paddled out in the dark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A paraffin lamp had been lit on the jetty for me, which I was now aiming for, and in just a few minutes I landed my canoe against the jetty surrounding the cabin.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.naturetravels.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/back-to-basics-floating-7.jpg\" alt=\"Simple yet delicious food in the forest!\" class=\"wp-image-239\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.naturetravels.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/back-to-basics-floating-7.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.naturetravels.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/back-to-basics-floating-7-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Simple yet delicious food in the forest! Photo: Sofia Carter Nature Travels.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>It was a calm night and the water was still. I felt like time had stopped. I changed into my sleeping clothes and went to sit on the edge of the jetty to brush my teeth. It wasn\u2019t a clear night, but you could see the stars in the gaps between the clouds.  It started to get chilly outside, so I headed inside. At first I considered lighting the wood burner, but then thought it would probably get the small cabin too warm, so opted for one of the blankets instead and drifted off to sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the middle of the night I was woken up by a banging sound, as if someone had landed a canoe against the jetty, but I looked at my watch and realised it was only 5 am and that nobody would be out at this hour. But just to be sure, I looked out through the windows (the cabin has one window on each side) and realised that the wind had picked up a bit and the sound I\u2019ve heard was my own canoe softly hitting against the jetty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So I went back to bed and listened to the lapping of the small waves the wind created hitting the jetty. You could hear the \u201cslap-slap\u201d of the water, but the cabin wasn\u2019t moving at all, and I slowly drifted off to sleep again.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.naturetravels.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/back-to-basics-floating-6.jpg\" alt=\"Beds in the Floating Cabin.\" class=\"wp-image-238\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.naturetravels.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/back-to-basics-floating-6.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.naturetravels.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/back-to-basics-floating-6-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Beds in the Floating Cabin.
