Set within a private wooden garden, this welcoming shepherd’s hut charms on arrival with its peaceful surroundings. Step inside and discover a thoughtfully designed studio-style space that combines comfort and convenience. To one side, a pretty kitchenette provides everything needed for preparing light meals and picnics for the day ahead. Enjoy your meals at the small dining table beside the window or head outside to dine alfresco. At the end of each memorable day away, a raised double bed is set against the wood-clad wall on the opposite side of the hut. Completing the interior is a smart shower room with a WC.
Step outside as often as possible and make full use of the generous garden space. Enclosed for your privacy, this peaceful setting features a covered dining area for al fresco food and drinks whatever the weather. Soft seating invites lazy afternoons, while a private hot tub sets the scene for evenings of relaxation, chatter, and stargazing.
