Escape to this romantic couple’s hideaway with a hot tub and a private fishpond, frequented by wild ducks. In the evenings, sink into warm bubbles and watch the sun set over the countryside. There is space for one four-pawed third wheel so you can enjoy walks together through the ancient woodland and parkland of North Wales. Just 2 miles from Hawarden, visit the local pubs, cafes and castle, or discover the area’s history in the city of Chester (7.5 miles).

Tucked inside a peaceful setting, this cosy shepherd’s hut has an open-plan lounge and kitchen with rustic wooden cupboards, underfloor heating and a grey seating area. Steps lead down to the garden from the front door, where a lawn is enclosed by wooden fencing - perfect for your pooch to stretch its legs. Enjoy a BBQ and al fresco dining at the two-seater table and chairs and sink into the hot tub as the sun sets. There are lovely views across the countryside and fishpond. Go back inside to find a double bedroom with green wood panelling and bedside tables, and a shower room next to the kitchen area. There is private parking for two cars.

During your break in North Wales, visit the Theatre Clywd and the market town of Mold (5 miles) or lace up your hiking boots to explore the walking trails of Loggerheads Country Park (9 miles), the Clwydian Range and Moel Famau (12 miles). The historic city of Chester is just 7.5 miles away and is home to a Roman Amphitheatre, boutique shops and medieval city walls. If you prefer to stay closer to your tranquil retreat, you can spend your days fishing and strolling along the river.

Great stay over Valentines weekend, the hut was decorated lovely and we had a bottle of fizz in the fridge on arrival which was perfect. The view and surroundings were peaceful with a stunning little pond area, horses opposite and chickens just to the side of the hut. Location was great with loads of places to eat and days out, 12 mins from ChesterRead more zoo. The hot tub was perfect too, a proper full size hot tub which was nice and hot ready for when we arrived. The owners and Sons were lovely too. Hide

A little Gem. Welcoming hosts, beautiful Pod with all you need, bedroom beautiful, bathroom perfect. The Pod was decorated in lovely relaxing colours and was super comfortable, underfloor heating should you get a little chilly. The outlook from the Veranda was countryside, relaxing in the private hot tub looking over the pond watching the ducks wasRead more so relaxing. Husband enjoyed the fishing & caught a variety of fish , all sizes too. We wanted peace and relaxation and we got this in abundance Hide

The Shepherds hut was very clean and comfortable with all the bits and bobs needed. The veranda area out the front and the hot tub were great with views of the pond, wildlife and fields. A great area to enjoy a wine and watch the sun go down. It was all very peaceful and relaxing.
