  • Fabulous countryside views from the garden and use of shared tennis court by arrangement
  • High specification with underfloor heating and wood burner for those cooler evenings
Property code: 60112

Set in the grounds of the family run dairy farm this shepherds hut offers a great holiday home for couples. A great base from which to explore the beauty of Devon. As soon as you arrive you begin to relax and experience a slower pace of life. Visit the nearby pretty villages such as Bickleigh, which has the River Exe meandering through it, or the popular Mill that offers boutique shopping and artisan foods. The distinctive dark red soil, typical in this area, makes it a scenic setting ideal for walking and exploring. Nearby is the town of Tiverton, which has a pretty canal offering boats for hire. Further afield is the city of Exeter, with its huge variety of shops and restaurants.

Stepping up into the hut you will find the stylish and contemporary shower room and WC with a heated towel rail. To your right you will find the remainder of the studio style accommodation, consisting of a kitchen area with fitted units, electric oven and two-ring hob, microwave and fridge with ice compartment and an airfryer,  everything you need to cook and prepare a romantic meal. Before you head to bed, light the wood burner, relax on the armchairs and watch a movie on the Smart TV/DVD. Completing the accommodation, and the perfect spot for a good night’s sleep is the king-size bed.

Heading outside enjoy relaxing on the enclosed private decked area with garden furniture and charcoal BBQ or take a dip in your own private hot tub whilst enjoying superb views from the decking over the surrounding farmland and countryside. You will also have access to the shared tennis courts. There is ample off-road parking available.

The Shepherds hut was lovely! Me and my partner both really enjoyed our stay, the hut itself was very clean and had everything provided that we needed. The hot tub looking out into the fields was very relaxing and just what we both needed. Especially lovely at night when the cows would come up into the field and peer over the fence! Beautiful hut.

This was our first experience, of staying in a Shepherds Hut and we have to say, we throughly enjoyed it. The Hut was warm, cozy and clean, with a Wood Burner, for those Winter days/evenings, having said that, it does have underfloor heating.

The shepherds hut was stunning. We arrived to find it beautifully clean and everything that was promised was there. The views are stunning. The only sounds we heard were our own voices, the ducks and our dog when he felt the wind was blowing too hard or a cow had looked at him funny. We simply loved it.

A relaxing short break in the mid-Devon countryside. The hut was kitted out with everything that we could possibly need. The bed was comfortable and it provided us with an enjoyable stay. Clean, tidy and peaceful. The rural location involves single track lanes and very patchy internet coverage so if this is important to you, its worth knowing that Read moresignal strength will vary.
