The Shepherd Hut and Hot Tub

About this place

**Please note that we require a minimum of 2 nights when booking this accommodation.** *The shepherd’s hut was traditionally used in the 19th and 20th centuries by shepherds during sheep raising and lambing. They were also used while moving flocks around for “natural fertilizer” purposes.* Our home-built shepherd hut is beautifully equipped with everything you will need for a relaxing, memorable, comfortable stay. There is a comfy king-size bed and a **child bunk** above with memory foam mattresses made up of fresh duvets, plump pillows and beautiful linen. The kitchen area contains a ceramic sink with hot and cold running water, a gas hob, pretty china crockery, and kitchen and cooking utensils. The wood-burning stove will keep you toasty warm and the views from the stable door towards Wistlandpound Reservoir are amazing. The Shepherd Hut is set away on its own and has a fenced garden and gated access to the stream. Outside is a wooden picnic bench, a fire pit and a lovely wood-fired hot tub. Shepherd’s huts often had iron wheels and corrugated iron tops. We’ve built this one ourselves and reinvented it slightly it’s the perfect romantic getaway. Come and live out your childhood gipsy dreams Well-behaved dogs are welcome at £5 per night. Please also keep in mind the neighbouring farm animals that live on the premises when bringing your companion. You can also access the footpath from the farm, to explore the lovely Wistlandpound Reservoir. Eggs from the hens are also collected and left in the laundry room, with an honesty box for you to help yourselves, guests are also welcome to collect eggs straight from the next boxes. A short walk from the hut is our up-to-date toilet block which is heated all year round. There are ample toilets and showers available and is complete with a drying wall, electrical sockets, fridge freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer. Fresh meat is often available for sale on-site. Please contact for further information. Camping is also available next to The Shepherds Hut for children or extra adults. There is a double en suite bed and breakfast room in the farmhouse, available for friends or relations who wish to join you, but for whom camping or glamping is not for them. The Shepherd Hut is comfy, cosy, warm and romantic, perfect for a break in the North Devon countryside. We love it! ***To find the location using the what3words app:hedgehog.physical.curtains***
