Best shepherd’s hut holidays in the UK to inspire your next escape
Looking for a getaway that blends rustic charm with a touch of luxury? A stay in a shepherd’s hut might be just what you need. Once humble dwellings used by roaming herders, today’s shepherd’s huts have been beautifully reimagined as boutique retreats—offering warmth, comfort, and a deep connection to nature.
Whether you’re after woodland seclusion, dramatic coastal views, or star-filled skies in the middle of nowhere, here are some of the best shepherd’s hut holidays in the UK to inspire your next escape.
Why Choose a Shepherd Hut Holiday?
Shepherd huts are more than just pretty spaces—they’re clever little sanctuaries. Think crackling log burners, deep comfy beds, private fire pits and stargazing skies. All the things you love about camping, but with none of the compromises.
They're ideal for:
- Romantic getaways
- Solo retreats
- Digital detoxes
- Walking holidays
- Off-grid adventures with a touch of luxury
And best of all? You don’t have to go far. These hidden gems are scattered across the UK’s most scenic spots—just pack your wellies and go.
