Bethnal & Bec

Luxury Retreats

There are times when the solution to all of your problems is to disconnect and hide away for a breather, and we have found the perfect place to do just that. Bethnal & Bec is tucked away in the gorgeous village of Cottered, in rural Hertfordshire. Husband and wife, Chris & Vicky Saynor have created a luxury bolthole for adults (and their four legged friends!) from what once was a block of dilapidated stables next to their home. Far from that now, they have three award winning, self contained retreats which are kitted out with everything you could possibly want and more. A cinema projector, outdoor whirlpool baths, vinyl record players and fire pits are just some of the special touches that Bethnal & Bec boasts.

Sustainability is at the core of everything Chris & Vicky are doing with Bethnal & Bec, and they are well on their way to becoming a NetZero business. The Foaling Box is the most recent of the three retreats to open and they managed to furnish it with 90% recycled pieces or furniture destined for landfill! If you’re looking for a luxury stay, and you absolutely do deserve it, then it really is a no-brainer. The hardest decision to make is which one of the unique and beautiful retreats to book.

To celebrate their 5th birthday, Bethnal & Bec are offering a 5% discount to STONES readers. Use code STONES5 when booking to redeem.
