Unplugged: Britain’s Best Off-­Grid Retreats to Restore and Recharge (Off the Grid) [9780500029848]

Overview

There's never been a better time to escape the everyday. Across the UK in particular, rural living is becoming increasingly popular, while staycationers are swapping overseas travel for restorative breaks closer to home. Driven by a desire to reconnect with nature, slow down, and live more sustainably, Brits are increasingly seeking places that offer a simpler, more mindful way of life.

With bold, evocative imagery, Unplugged celebrates the UK’s most alluring off-grid homes, each with net-zero credentials. Sited on remote islands and in wild coastal settings and secluded rural landscapes across England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland, these homes offer a glimpse of a greener, more considered future. Organized by scale, from extra-small to medium, these are inspiring, attainable escapes rather than luxury mansions, with appeal to both owner-builders and ecotourists.

The third in Dominic Bradbury’s successful Off the Grid series, Unplugged showcases a fresh, sustainable vision for rural living.
