One of four self catering properties at Accott Manor, The Shepherd's Shed has been purposefully set apart from the other cottages making it the ideal retreat for couples looking for a romantic relaxing getaway together. Inside, The Shepherd's Shed offers high quality self catering accommodation in a rather unique and quirky way. An open plan space oozes plenty of character and charm throughout.

Outside, there is a separate purpose built fitted shower room. Behind the shed, guests will discover a separate covered sink and a gas BBQ, a great space for preparing meals outside. There is also an outdoor seating area covered by awning. And finally, the real added luxury for couples looking for a relaxing getaway is the wood fired hot tub. Guests have exclusive use, and can enjoy the spectacular views, sunsets or starlit skies. Onsite, the guests are welcome to use the communal games room (please note: Covid rules will apply).

It made our first trip without our kids feel very special! The location is sublime with gorgeous views and we will long remember sitting in the hot tub, at sunset, in the rain - pure bliss. ##### p t.

Jul 23, 2025 #### Idyllic Countryside Escape – Cosy Shepherd’s Hut Near Barnstaple We had the most peaceful and relaxing stay at this beautiful shepherd’s hut just outside Barnstaple. Tucked away in the Devon countryside, it offered the perfect escape from everyday life. The views across the open fields were absolutely stunning, and we especially loved watching the cows roam freely in the field right in front of the hut – it was such a calming experience. The hut itself was cosy and well-equipped with everything we needed. The hot tub was a real highlight – soaking in the warm water under the stars, surrounded by nature, was just magical. It’s quiet, private, and the ideal spot to truly unwind. If you're looking for peace, privacy, and beautiful rural views, this place is a real gem. We left feeling completely refreshed and we will definitely be returning. Highly recommended! ##### Sarah M. ### 8/10 Good #### Jane L.

The Shepherds Shed itself was beautiful, very clean and had everything you could need for your stay. The Outdoor area was spot on too, the large gazebo with zip up sides was great, really kept the wind at bay and kept you warmer, the log burner was great, and the gas BBQ also excellent. The wood fired hot tub was so relaxing to sit in on an evening with a glass of wine or few, and the sound of the silence almost deafening apart from the odd toot from a distant owl. The view also was to die for, nothing better than to sit with a coffee in the warm morning sun just staring at natural beauty. Shawn and Kath were also great hosts and very friendly and helpful. We would happily stay here again and happily recommend it to anyone. ##### James W. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leanne s.

We barely left the site because it was everything we needed peace rest and relaxation. 100% recommend to anyone wanting a dreamy getaway. Thankyou so much ##### Leanne s.
