Property code: 93762

A luxuriously restored shepherd's hut located in the idyllic rural countryside of Leicestershire. This charming holiday home offers a family of four and their furry besties all the mod cons needed for a stress-free stay. Enjoy long, scenic outings from your doorstep, before returning home to the cosy confines of the wood-fired hot tub and snug living space.

Climb the steps to the front door and usher your waggy-tailed pals into the living area. Nestle yourself in mountains of pillows and throws, and enjoy a cosy evening watching films on the projector or stealing a few private moments with your favourite novel. Prepare light or doggy dinners in the fully fitted kitchen, before gathering at the quaint dining table in the living space to enjoy the chef’s hard work. After a day of outdoor adventures, relaxation and good food, find the two scenic bedrooms that await; two cosy doubles that are served by the well-appointed shower room that completes the inside. Outside, enjoy starry nights from the bubbles of the wood-burning hot tub, or dine al fresco on the decking as your happy hounds relax in the evening sun.

For an energetic start to the day, venture to Foxton Locks (3.5 miles) and let your four-legged friends take the lead around its 34 acres of rich heritage. Grab a bite to eat and a bowl of water in one of the two cafes, or have a sit-down meal at one of the two welcoming pubs. Just 5 miles away are various activities; including the Harborough Museum, a monthly farmer's market, and Welland Park - the largest park in the town with manicured gardens and space for your pooches to roam. If shopping is more your bag, the city of Leicester is within 12 miles.

Lovely comfortable, clean cabin, set in a beautiful area. Good for long country walks. The nearby Foxton locks worth a visit. The owners are extremely helpful and friendly. We would definitely recommend.

Lovely, comfortable, cosy cabin. Tastefully decorated with sumptuous bedding and soft furnishings. Hosts were really helpful, with useful tips and advice for exploring the area and made sure the cabin and hot tub were heated up before we arrived.
