Holly Hut

Our beautiful shepherd’s hut was designed and built at the wood. It is available to hire for a couple or a family.  It has one permanent double bed with a view to the stars and another which converts into a table.  There is also a wood-burning stove for colder nights. 

Outside there is a fire-pit, grill, running water, sheltered food preparation area, a compost toilet, and picnic table.

For a stay in Holly Hut, you need to bring:

  • matches or other equipment for fire-lighting

  • candles and torches - there is no electricity

  • food, drink and cooking equipment - there is running mains water and we provide basic kitchen equipment (4 plates, sets of cutlery, glasses, a big pan, a frying pan, and a bowl for washing up)

  • bedding and bed linen for the two double beds

  • towel - you can wash in our beautiful Bath House which is a couple of minute’s walk away

  • toilet roll for the compost toilet

Cost is £100 for a weekend night or holiday week-day night and £75 for a term-time week-day night including firewood and kindling.

Check in is from 2pm and check out is by 11am - although you are welcome to spend time in the wood before or after these times!
