These shepherd’s huts have been built with the environment at the heart of their design - over 80% of the materials used for the build being recycled upcycled or reclaimed, all being sourced locally.

The huts are cosy with all fundamental facilities provided; traditionally meals would be created on top of the wood burner, and you are encouraged to give this a go using the cast iron crockery provided.
