Budget-friendly shepherd’s huts

What’s it like to stay in a shepherd’s hut? The humble, versatile shepherd’s hut has become synonymous with glamping in recent years. Cuddled up under the curved roof, you’ll be harking back to a simpler time when farmers would shelter in them overnight while tending to their sheep. The shepherd’s huts in our collection have upped the ante in the style stakes – you’ll still be nestled in a cocoon-like retreat surrounded by nature, but you’ll find a lot more home comforts than in days gone by (including the odd hot tub).

Our range of shepherd’s huts – from affordable to luxury Hut doesn’t really do justice to some of the shepherd’s huts in our collection. While some are small and cosy, we’ve also got some luxurious double-wide spaces that can fit copper baths and huge beds. We’ve even got one shepherd’s hut with a covered kitchen, firepit and hot tub attached. What they all have in common – as well as the iconic corrugated curved roof – is oodles of rustic charm.

Affordability and glamping Our glamping holidays come with complimentary access to the great outdoors and there’s no need to show your boarding pass to enter. When your back garden is acres of woodland, rugged coastal paths or rolling hills, you don’t need to flex the plastic for entertainment. The thrill of being out in the wild is enough. Our generous hosts are prone to throwing in quirky added extras too – you can try your hand at the ukulele at Dawn of the Day in Herefordshire and you’ll find a nomadic horse box sauna at Inshriach in the Highlands.
