A picture-perfect, lakeside escape.
Beautiful English countryside surrounds the shepherd's hut.
Head to the bustling city of Exeter for a spot of lunch by the quayside.
The cliffs between Beer and Branscombe - a great section of the South West Coast Path.
The National Trust estate at Killerton is just a bike ride away down the road - lovely walks, gardens, cafe, restaurant and shop.
The far end of the beach at Budleigh Salterton (just over 30 minutes away), where the River Otter joins the sea. The river, banks and reed beds are wonderful places for nesting birds.
Why not visit Dartmoor, which has many fantastic walks and gorgeous pubs?

We had a great week at Shepherd's Delight. Paul was a very friendly and welcoming host, meeting us on arrival, advising us on the local area, and inviting us to see the Alpacas close to the farm. The hut and surroundings were beautiful. On a (rare) rainy day, the hut was cosy and warm. On sunny days, it was great to relax around the lake. The hut is in a great location for exploring Devon and Cornwall, and we can only hope to return soon! ...

Ideal location and brilliant cooking facilities, very cosy and kept warm by the log burner, excellent place for the dogs to run around.

We were here last week for ten days. Shepherds delight is the perfect place to go for peace and quiet. Paul the owner is very pleasant & doesn’t bother you at all but if any problems deals with it straight away. The hut is cosy,the bed comfortable,the wood burner warms the hut perfectly.the shower is brilliant. The griddle outside is brilliant & together with the outside two rings I even managed to cook a roast! The fridge is in a cupboard outside . The walks around there and in the woods are lovely. The pond is well stocked with Rudd,carp and my husband was really pleased when he managed to catch a Golden koi. We brought groceries with us and then topped up from Sainsbury’s which about 3 miles away & one of the many McColls shops. The chippy on polshoe road is good too. The place is well hidden and you wouldn’t know it was there from the road. Take plenty to do like books and jigsaws and you’ll love your time there doing almost nothing. We took a battery powered radio too. This was our second time here and weve booked it again for next year. Enjoy! ...

A truly splendid idea well executed as a small barrel roofed shepherds hut set in front of a picturesque lake with boat and jetty for personal use. Anyone needing to escape the daily grind and pressures of life could do a lot worse than leaving their phones and laptops at home to immerse themselves in this most wonderful of natural settings and back to basics living. ...
