Wood-fired stone bath

Set beside the cabin, the wood-fired stone bath capturess expansive ocean views. It takes around 2.5 hours to heat, so get the fire going and settle into the ritual of tending the flames as the water warms. Add some Epsom salts, bring a book and ease into the warmth, with the fresh coastal air around you and the stars emerging overhead.
