A fabulously well-designed shepherds hut, set in the heart of the South Hams, with an array of coastal towns and beaches close by.
Surrounded by quaint coastal villages and sublime stretches of sand, this beautiful little log cabin sleeps two people in one bedroom and welcomes one faithful friend. Wonderfully quirky and undeniably romantic, it’s the perfect country retreat for couples who want to explore the untamed beauty of the South Hams with their trusty pup by their side. You’ll adore the magical ambience of this character property, and your canine companion will love the freedom to explore the property’s enclosed orchard off-leash.
Upon entering this adorable shepherd’s hut from the steps, you will immediately find yourself in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/dining/sleeping area. Cook up a romantic meal for two in the compact kitchen area and dine at the fold-up dining table. Alternatively, head outside to the garden at the front of the hut to fire up the BBQ and dine alfresco. After dinner, relax with a drink in the fresh country air, let your pup run free in the enclosed orchard, or cosy up with your loved one in the cabin’s living area. When it’s time for bed, you’re sure to enjoy a good night’s sleep in the hut’s sleeping area. In the morning, you can enjoy country views from under the duvet.
Wake up and take your pup on a refreshing morning stroll at Beesands Beach (2.5 miles), which welcomes dogs all year round. Afterwards, stop off in the village pub for a pint (it’s very dog-friendly) or take a pleasant 1.5-mile walk into the neighbouring village of Hallsands, where pups are also welcome on the beach all year round. Further afield, pack up a picnic and take your pup with you to explore Dartmouth Castle (11 miles), one of the most beautifully located fortresses in England.
