The Muddie is a unique, earth conscious & rustic kind of experience. I loved the daily ritual of lighting the kitchen stove to provide some warmth, hot water for the shower and cups of tea, and to heat my food at night. Everything that is needed is provided. It has a very homely & cosy feel about it. Comfy bed and extra blankets were very appreciated as it was quite cold at night.
The instructions for use of the stove etc in the Muddie made the experience easeful. It was fun to use the little pond to chill my milk and a couple other things. I had no issues keeping my food fresh. Living with out mains electricity was a great and humbling experience. Knowing I was showering and drinking the water (filtered) from the creek felt very cleansing. Having a bath was magic. Overall, living so closely with nature alongside the forest makes for a very peaceful and restorative stay. Great thing to do with company. I didn’t end up having a fire outside at night. That would have been awesome to do. The night sky was amazing too! Highly recommend the experience. I felt more connected to how my family used to live with the land. Thanks again Sarah. :)
