Overview
Property code: OC-WA052

This beautiful timber framed Shepherd’s Hut stands on its own in a glorious south facing meadow in the quiet countryside above the charming fishing village of Staithes. The hut is truly a year round destination, equally beautiful and cosy in January as in the Summer months. Why not lie-in in style; through the large glazed screen you can enjoy a panoramic view over the woods, fields and valley from your king-size bed. Sitting on your private terrace, the views down to Staithes and the sea are superb. The Shepherds Hut is fully insulated and there is a small electric heater for cooler evenings. WiFi is available free of charge. Outside there is a small lockable shed providing storage for boots, coats etc, and a kettle barbecue is provided. 

There is a shared games room which includes a 3/4 size snooker table, table tennis, table football and many books, board games and DVDs. The owners can provide special event dinners in the house along with guided walks in the area. Tai Chi lessons and personal tuition available.

This haven of peace can also be hired as an “add on” for Acorn Cottage (WA040) and Catkin Cottage (WA041) as perfect quirky accommodation for another couple. As both these cottages have comfortable lounge seating and a table and chairs for four guests, you can sit, relax and dine together in the comfort of a cottage. Later, why not stroll up to the Shepherds Hut to enjoy the stunning views from the terrace, perhaps over a glass of wine. Other accommodation at this delightful location includes Oak Cottage (WA042) and Willow Cottage (WA043) which both sleep six guests.

The Shepherds Hut was a lovely little escape with a fantastic view, without the need to get out of bed! The hot water supply, shower pressure and soft towels were also very pleasing. I would have no qualms about staying again or recommending it to others.

A clean, comfy and tidy little hut with a beautiful view. No need for TV just watch the Barn Owl and pheasant! Lots of walks and things to do within a 20 min drive. Had a great stay and would go again.

Beautiful little shepards hut, big enough for what we needed, very well equipped kitchenette and good size bathroom for the size of the hut. Very comfortable and lovely decor gave it a homely home from home feeling. Bed was extremely comfortable and cosy. Lovely setting for a holiday weekend away with my husband. Was brilliant to be able to sit on Read morethe terrace and listen to the wildlife at night and the views were breathtaking. Great to hear that this will be the only shepards hut on the field as it gives it a nice secluded and exclusive appeal to it. Both owners were friendly and welcoming and extremely helpful. Owners kindly invited us a long to a tai che session Sunday morning with was fantastic to be apart of and has given myself and my husband a new found hobby to take up together. Location of the hut was brilliant as it was only a very short drive to the Staithes village or an even shorter drive to a local pub. Would definitely come again x Hide
