Nestled beneath ancient oak trees at the foot of the breathtaking Blackdown Hills, this luxury shepherd’s hut offers the perfect countryside escape in the heart of Somerset. Designed for those looking to unwind, reconnect with nature, and enjoy peaceful surroundings, this beautifully crafted retreat combines rustic charm with modern luxury.
Handcrafted by the renowned team at Ashwood Shepherd Huts, every detail has been thoughtfully designed to create a spacious yet cosy hideaway. Inside, you’ll find a fully fitted kitchen, a luxurious walk-in shower room, a king-size bed perfectly positioned to enjoy panoramic countryside views, and a charming log burner beside the dining area — ideal for relaxing evenings after a day exploring the Somerset countryside.
Step outside and soak up the stunning scenery from the bespoke tree deck built around one of the ancient oak trees, creating a truly unique outdoor experience. Guests can also enjoy the wood-fired hot tub with jets, perfect for stargazing under clear country skies, alongside a private patio area complete with BBQ facilities and comfortable seating for outdoor dining and relaxation.
Access to the hut is via a private track leading from the road, with convenient parking located directly beside the accommodation.
To make your stay even more special, complimentary firewood is provided for the log burner, hot tub, and fire pit at no extra cost. On arrival, guests are welcomed with thoughtful local touches including freshly laid eggs, homemade jam, fresh bread, milk, and essential kitchen supplies — everything you need for a cosy and memorable countryside getaway.
