Escaping the stresses of modern life is easy here. Refreshingly, there isn't a TV or WiFi, the perfect opportunity for a total digital detox and to relish the therapeutic benefits of nature in your own rural hideaway. The level of design detail inside is pretty impressive with highlights including lovely soft furnishings, a Belfast sink and space for a dining table (not always the case in a shepherd's hut). Meanwhile, the outside space, complete with a wood-fired hot tub, is perfect for enjoying lunch alfresco or stargazing in the clear Exmoor sky. The space This cosy shepherd's hut features an open-plan space that incorporates the lounge, kitchen, dining and sleeping areas, all tastefully decorated in an elegant, country style. There's a small dining table and chairs so that you can enjoy all your meals at the hut if you wish, while the wood burner adds an extra layer of cosiness to chilly days. There is no TV or WiFi at this property, but that just makes it all the more appealing to anyone who wants to completely switch off for a while. Meanwhile, the kitchen is equipped with a mini gas oven and a two-ring gas hob and a fridge. The sleeping area is at the other end of the hut and features a double bed. It's an inviting place to relax and enjoy the fabulous views of the woodlands and fields through the window. A separate hut next to the shepherd's hut houses the modern shower room with a large shower cubicle, a wash basin and a WC. Outside there's a decked area with a bistro table and chairs for dining alfresco against a backdrop of the surrounding woodlands. There's also a wood-fired hot tub and a second decked area that features a picnic bench and a fire pit – perfect for toasting marshmallows. Logs are provided for the wood burner and the wood-fired hot tub. Guest access There is a key safe where you can access the key to the property for a self-check-in.
