Originally created to enable better flock and land management, shepherd huts have been an integral part of the British countryside for generations. While they may have fallen out of favour within the farming community, they are an ideal choice for Glamping sites all over the country.

The Shepherd Hut
Built upon a steerable chassis with traditional cast iron wheels, the exterior of the shepherd hut is clad in Plastisol coated, galvanised, corrugated steel, and can be painted in a variety of different colours. The windows, one single and one double, are both double glazed, in a cottage style with hand forged, traditional fastenings. The stable door also comes with hand forged, traditional fastenings. Also provided is a 2kw wood burning stove with a flat plate for your kettle, black limestone hearth, heat retardant boarding and air vent. On top of this, high quality insulation is installed throughout the hut to ensure that it can be used all year round without having to worry about the temperature. Pine wood flooring and oak steps make up the inside, along with a fitted double bed with mattress and an underneath storage cupboard.
