Centrally heated 5 star cosy traditionally built Shepherds Hut w/ en suite WC.

With self check in and check out and situated in the owners’ 2 acre grounds overlooking the Sussex Countryside with an orchard just a step away for guests use, this stunning new Shepherds Hut built in the best available traditional materials is perfect for a relaxing break. The property is accessed via its own external oak open tread stairs. The hut has fast fibre, Wifi and internet TV. There are Rolls Royce style starlights over the bed, a stained glass window with private curtains to separate the bed from the rest of the hut and a flame effect electric wood burner to add to the cosy feeling. Hob, microwave, fridge, hot and cold running water, shower and a fully plumbed in WC all add to the convenience of modern living but still with the feeling of being away from it all. The hut is in the far corner of the owners' grounds, conveniently set back from the A28. There are many country walks directly from the hut, several fine pubs are within a 5 - 15 minute drive, beaches are around a 20 minute drive away and many interesting sites nearby including National Trust and English Heritage . Around 20 minutes to Battle, with its famous battlefield and abbey, built to commemorate the Battle of Hastings in 1066. Relive one of the most famous days in history, and join the 1066 walk. Take a trip on the Kent and East Sussex Steam Railway from Tenterden, also known as ’The Jewel of the Weald’, through the Rother Levels to Bodiam, one of the most evocative moated castles (National Trust), built in 1385. Discover the one time coastal smuggling town of Hastings and medieval Cinque Port town of Rye just 8 miles away with its cobbled streets. Picturesque sand dunes and interesting wildlife can be explored at Camber Sands around 30 minutes away.
The cabin is heated and features a kitchen and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include an electric kettle and a dining table.

Cute shepherds hut as described. Self check in and out with no issues. Host never responded when leaving regarding certain instructions and relaying info on a damaged fire pit. Would recommend.

The shepherds hut is in the perfect location on the grounds of its friendly owners. There were lots of places to explore based out from there. Grant and Jan also had lots of useful information to help enhance our visit.

The Shepherds Hut was better than I ever imagined as a place to stay. Totally self contained but with help available if you needed it. Grant and Janet are the most perfect hosts. I would not hesitate to go back again.

Romantic getaway.

We had such a lovely stay at the shepherds hut. Was a special birthday gift to me from my husband. It is so snug and cosy. It is beautifully decorated. The grounds are beautiful and so peaceful. Janet and Grant are lovely hosts. Very friendly and helpful. Of course we couldn’t forget the oh so cute doggies! They came running to see us every morning. Even sitting with my husband on the steps. We would 100% come again and would definitely recommend staying there to anyone. Thank you.
