At Sweet Violet, the layout is part of the experience. Designed as a sociable, design-led cabin set within Buttercup Estate, it rethinks how groups stay together, combining shared space with cleverly arranged sleeping nooks.

At its centre is a double-height living and dining area, where soft timber interiors and warm lighting create a space that feels both relaxed and intentional. The open-plan layout encourages time spent together, whether that’s long, shared meals, board games in the evening or simply settling into the rhythm of the day.

Four built-in sleeping nooks are tucked into the structure — two on the ground floor and two on the mezzanine above, each with a double bed and acoustic-lined curtains. This creates a flexible setup that feels informal yet thoughtfully designed, particularly well suited to families with older children or groups comfortable sharing a more open layout.

Outside, the pace slows further. A wood-fired hot tub and outdoor dining area offer space to unwind, while the surrounding 15-acre estate provides room to explore, walk and spend time outdoors.

Sweet Violet is ideal for those looking for something a little different. A stay that feels creative, sociable and connected to its setting, with the added benefit of optional experiences available across the wider Buttercup Estate.

  • The unique sleeping nook layout, offering a sociable yet flexible setup for groups. The double-height living space that brings everyone together

What you should know

  • Bedrooms are arranged as sleeping nooks rather than fully enclosed rooms
  • The mezzanine level overlooks the main living space, so privacy is more limited
  • The farm sits on the flight path for East Midlands Airport, so you may occasionally hear aircraft overhead.
  • If you’re planning to use the property for commercial photography or videography, a media fee applies.
  • Events and parties can be arranged on request, subject to an additional fee.
  • Don’t forget to pack walking boots to make the most of the surrounding countryside.
  • Pricing is based on occupancy, so please ensure your guest numbers are accurate when booking.
  • Additional visitors not included in the booking are not permitted.
  • Guests are asked to be mindful of the shared driveway and surrounding properties
