Upon on arrival we met the very friendly owners who welcomed us to Foxglove. We were told we could reverse our car down the bridle way to unload and then park at the top afterwards. There was certainly plenty of space to park and we experienced no problems parking for the remainder of the week. Foxglove it self was a little paradise with our own enclosed garden with views over the fields and hills. It was lovely to watch the sheep and chickens and listen to the abundance of bird life. We even saw paragliders taking off on the hills! The shepherds hut was immaculate inside and is beautifully decorated with lots of features. The bathroom is a little gem and the shower was great. Teddy our dog loved sitting on the top of the steps surveying his domain and watching me enjoying the sunshine in one of the deckchairs, perfect! The surrounding areas are beautiful and we visited Shaftesbury and Sherborne which are quaint little places with lots of independent shops. The coast is only a short drive away so you’re spoilt for choice! The owner recommended the local fish and chip van that visits on a Thursday in the nearby village of Okeford and they were certainly very tasty. We would definitely recommend Foxglove as a wonderful peaceful place to stay and hopefully we will be back for our second visit soon. ##### Melvyn and Tracy Blackmore This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard Bishop Aug 7, 2025 #### Booked last minute what a wonderful find . Booked last minute what a wonderful find . It was amazing we took our 2 small dogs and they loved it . Everything was so well thought out the garden was lovely and so so peaceful. When we go again I would take some food with us we went to the co-op which was about 3 miles away ……. It was perfect 10/10 ##### Richard Bishop ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sue J. Mar 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect for peace and quiet Great location and hut as described. Cozy and great little enclosed garden which is safe for a dog, mine loved it. Stayed for four nights and loved it. Great hut, really well thought out. Looks out on open countryside with sheep and lambs in fields next door, only sounds were birds singing and sheep bleating. Only downside was postcode doesn’t take you to property, but asked someone and is only a few minutes away. Only one wine glass available, luckily only me staying and I always take a flute for Prosecco! but if two of you a bit difficult. No other glasses at all, but certainly didnt spoil anything, but would be nice to have some more available. Small oven that was available was a lot better than expected, no problems with it at all and did the job more than adequately. Shower great and bed really comfortable. Overall absolutely loved it and delivered on the peace and quiet front without fail. Loved the isolation, but as in my own was still great to know owners cottage was within sight. Would recommend definitely ##### Sue J. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark B., Exeter Aug 12, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely rural getaway Clean, bijou and stylish shepherds hut in the countryside with all amenities needed. Bottle of wine on welcome and friendly owners. Local pub 5-10mins walk. Would recommend! ##### Mark B.
