住宿資訊
Tucked away in a rural location in the Forest of Dean, this charming shepherd’s hut is a romantic retreat with lovely views. The delightfully rustic interior has a wooden floor, exposed wooden beams in the roof and purpose-built units which perfectly fit your forest setting. The main living area combines a raised king-size bed with a dining area, kitchenette, and a compact wood burner. At the rear of the shepherd’s hut is a shower room hidden behind a sliding wooden door. Step outside onto the raised decking and you can take in the fresh air and wonderfully peaceful views. This is a secluded bolthole ideally positioned for exploring the Wye Valley and Forest of Dean up to Ross-on-Wye and across to Tintern.
Steps lead to the decking and entrance of this charming hut. You’ll first notice the raised king-size bed which sits beneath a skylight. Here you can lie beneath the stars. Built-in steps to the side mean you don’t have to clamber into bed. Cleverly stored beneath the bed is a hidden table and benches. These pull out so you can enjoy meals together and can then be stowed away to make the most of the space. Light the wood burner in the evening and enjoy this time together away from the world. This well-designed shepherd’s hut is equipped with all the must-haves needed for a relaxing stay including a kitchenette with an oven and two-ring hob, a microwave, a fridge with a freezer compartment and a Belfast sink. To the rear is a stylishly appointed shower room behind a sliding door.
Outside you can watch the sunrise from the decking. There is also a firepit/barbecue.
