The Shepherd’s Hut, located in a serene walled garden, offers a perfect retreat with picturesque views and essential amenities, including a wood-burning stove, bathroom, mini kitchen, and a cosy bed area. Its cleverly designed interior features a space that can be transformed into either a dining area with chairs or a comfortable seating zone by the wood burner. Guests can enhance their stay by hiring the wood-fired hot tub.

Set within a 9-acre smallholding on the outskirts of Alton village, the hut includes access to a private garden with a decked seating area and BBQ facilities. Visitors are welcome to explore the farmland, interact with friendly animals, and enjoy walking trails that lead through Dimmingsdale and into Alton village. Alton Towers is conveniently located just a five-minute drive away, with some rides visible through the woodland from the property.

Guests have the freedom to roam the fields and meet the animals, adding to the rural charm of the experience. The optional private wood-fired hot tub is available for an additional fee of £40 for a 2-night stay or £60 for 3 nights, with payment required upon arrival. Enjoy a relaxing and immersive countryside escape at The Shepherd’s Hut, blending rustic comforts with modern conveniences.
