    Beautiful setting, amazing hosts, and the hut had everything you could want and way more. Amazing welcome hamper, lovely hot tub, fire pit, and the pizza oven was great. A lot of very nice personal touches, would highly recommended to anyone.

    The views are spectacular, sitting in the hot tub at night was amazing. The hut is done to a high standard, all the added touches and wood burner to keep you warm on a chilly morning. Pizza over makes a fantastic tasting pizza, was just completely...

Poachers Hut – a cosy private luxurious Shepherds Hut with Hot Tub and Pizza Oven. It sits on its own in the far away corner of its own field and if you enjoy the countryside, quietness, big skies, starry moonlit nights, wildlife, you will love it here. It has oak floors, comfy double bed, chairs, table, fridge, micro, nespresso coffee, kettle, toaster, electric pan, cosy woodburner and en-suite shower & toilet, Netflix TV, WIFI, Alexa. Outside a private south facing patio, table, chairs, Kadai fire pit/bbq, electric always on hot tub with massage jets. There's also a wood fired pizza oven on your patio. Generous bundles of wood and kindling is supplied and there is more to purchase.
I love (in no particular order!) gardening, walking, books, flowers, farming, wildlife, nature, being outdoors, my friends, cats, sheep, hens, goats, husband, and enjoying life every day.
