Far away from bustling urban life, this shepherd's hut provides the perfect setting for a restorative retreat. Located on a farm, you’ll have beautiful views across the surrounding meadows and fields with easy access to local walking trails. The inside space is rustic and simple with a pull-out double sofa bed and wood-burning stove – perfect for cosy evenings. There’s also a fire pit and barbecue shared with the neighbours. And for explorations further afield, it’s just a short stroll into Saxtead where you’ll find a great local pub, plus the market town of Framlingham is also within easy reach.
