About this property
The Holmes Hill Retreat
Enjoy the sounds of the wild birds when you stay in this unique space looking across a lake and rolling fields. The shepherds hut has its own private, fenced garden and a wood fired hot tub, exterior seating and a bbq. 16 very local pubs - within 5 miles. And 3 pubs within 2 miles. 1 of these pubs has a direct footpath from us and is just over a mile. The hut is tucked on an industrial complex with an on-site cafe, pottery place, furniture shop and a hot tub shop. Secure parking with CCTV. THE HUT IS LOCATED ON THE EDGE OF AN INDUSTRIAL ESTATE 422 FEET FROM A MAIN A ROAD. PLEASE SEE THE MAP ON OUR LISTING PHOTOS. A stunning shepherd hut finished to a high standard. Very comfortable double bed in it's own little nook at one end; fully plumbed luxury shower room at the other. Kitchenette with dining area and seating with combi oven, kettle, toaster, fridge with small freezer compartment and 2 ring induction hob and log burning stove to keep you toasty. It's fully equipped with everything you might need such as pots and pans, towels and linens. The hut is tucked away at the back of an industrial complex set in a gorgeous country estate of 48 acres just off the A22, providing easy access by road and excellent secure private parking. There's a lovely cafe which guests are welcome to use (unfortunately not dog friendly), a pottery barn where you can paint your own items, a furniture shop and a hot tub shop. Please bear in my these businesses are in no way related to ours. Once you've parked the hut is a short walk away and totally secluded. The estate has a vast variety of wild birds as well as ducks, geese and chickens. It's just over a mile from the local pub which you can reach by a footpath, avoiding the main road. From June there will be a second shepherds hut on the property, this is set far enough away from this shepherds hut to keep the secluded and private feel. Guests are encouraged to browse the shops: the cafe's food is lovely and the pottery barn is so much fun. Guests are requested to stay within the industrial complex and within the 12 acre field with the lake that the hut is situated upon. Please don't go rambling through woods and fields that aren't public footpaths! There is a satellite image on the ad displaying the main road in red across to our parking as well as the boundary that guests can walk. Guests are not permitted to cross the boundary outlined in orange - failure to adhere to this will result in the termination of your stay. The host is 95% of the time on site however if the host is not around please contact via a text message or phone call, details will be given on arrival of stay. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions at all. The heating is sourced by a log burner for the hut and for the hot tub. We will pre-make the fires for ease but please bear in mind you will need to be able to attend to the fires independently. The hot tub takes around four hours to heat to temperature with a blazing fire and the lid closed. The tub will take longer to heat up if the fire is not blazing or the lid is not on. Watching and tending the fire with a nice glass of wine is all part of the pleasure of the country experience. If you have any trouble getting the fire going let us know as soon as possible and we'll do our best to assist. The main road is 422 feet from the hut. The hut is nestled into trees and you can't see or hear the road from inside the hut. Bring a pair of wellies in the winter months if you’d like to enjoy a stroll round the field. Please note we do not provide charcoal for the BBQ and we provide ample kindling/fire lighters and logs for your stay, in the case you run out there is either a shop within a minutes drive where you can purchase these items or you can purchase them directly from us.
