This quirky cosy Shepherd Hut located in the Secret Garden where you can enjoy al fresco dining heated by the warmth of the fire pit surrounded by the twinkling fairy lit hedges and up lit trees. The Secret Garden is in the heart of the countryside ensuring complete privacy.

It has a double fold down bed fully made up with crisp cotton sheets, duvet and fluffy pillows. The kitchenette has two hotplates, fridge, sink and microwave along with all the glassware and crockery you will need. Built in en-suite shower room with fluffy towels provided.

Enjoy a glass of something cold sitting on the deck looking out onto The Secret Garden.

There are some great pubs locally and these are all listed in our welcome folder along with their phone numbers, however, if you would like us to book a table anywhere just drop us a message.

Shed in a field

Very disappointed as not as expected. Expensive for just a box. Log burner tiny and not on just a small oil radiator. Did not stay at this hut, left and booked somewhere else to stay the night.
