New Concept Immerses Guests In The power of being analogue in Irish Nature – Samsú Off-Grid Cabin
Samsú, a pioneering Irish startup, has launched its first luxury off-grid cabin just 60 minutes outside of Dublin, aiming to provide a sanctuary for those seeking to disconnect from the digital world and immerse themselves in the quiet of nature.
Founded by Rosanna Irwin, a self-confessed workaholic and technology addict, Samsú was born out of her personal journey of battling burnout. Inspired by a transformative camping experience on the Danish island of Samsø, Irwin recognised the need for spaces that allow individuals to unplug from the relentless demands of modern life and find solace in nature.
“In today’s fast-paced world, we are constantly bombarded with notifications, emails, and the pressure to be ‘always on,'” says Irwin. “Samsú offers a refuge where people can rediscover the power of going analogue and embrace the restorative benefits of nature.”
Thoughtfully located just an hour’s drive or a convenient public transport journey from Dublin, Samsú’s inaugural cabin has been meticulously designed and built with sustainability and mindfulness at its core. Powered by solar energy and equipped with eco-friendly amenities such as compost toilets and organic Irish-made bath products, the cabin minimises its environmental impact while providing a luxurious off-grid experience.
Upon arrival, guests are greeted with a curated analogue kit, including a phone lockbox, film camera, cassette player, journals, sleep sprays, Lightohone, and a map of the surrounding area. By encouraging a screen-free stay, Samsú invites guests to reconnect with themselves and the natural world around them.
Aoife MacNamara of Aoife Ireland, a recent guest at Samsú, shares her experience: “Time slows down when you let it – make a tea, lay in bed and enjoy the birdsong. Samsú provided the perfect escape to recharge and find inner peace.”
Samsú is now open for bookings, offering a unique opportunity for individuals to rediscover the ancient remedy of spending time in nature. Prices start at €195 per night and include a king-sized bed with luxury linens, logs for the fire, locally roasted coffee, and everything else you might need to go analogue in nature.
