Welcome to The Whistle, our luxury shepherd's hut in Somerset.
Drift off into a sweet slumber after a day of adventures.
And the outside space is truly idyllic with a wood-fired hot tub and pizza oven.
The rustic interiors create the cosiest ambience.
Alfresco cooking never looked so good.
Relax in the evening sunshine as you take in your rural surroundings.
The interiors are dream-worthy.
Just perfect.
The hidden TV is at the end of the bed and only appears as and when you wish to use it.
The wood-burner will keep you toasty at any time of year.
We love the sweet Belfast sink.
Why not light up the wood-fired pizza oven and enjoy homemade pizza during your stay?
The gorgeous interiors flow effortlessly through to the ensuite shower room.
You can also freshen up outside under the alfresco rainfall shower.
Just the most magical hideaway with all the little luxuries you could dream of.
Sink into the steamy tub and say hello to your fluffy neighbours.
A taste of Italy awaits.
Get stuck into a good book during your retreat to nature.
And soak up the summer sunshine.
You couldn't dream of a more enchanting place to stay.
You'll love the romantic view point. It's the perfect spot for a sundowner.
From dawn till dusk, The Whistle offers simple perfection.
The views surrounding your hideaway are simply spellbinding.
Beautiful rural Somerset.
Barrington Court, a Tudor manor owned by the National Trust, is a short drive away.
Lyme Regis is a vibrant seaside town with some great choices when it comes to dining and can be reached in under 40 minutes by car.
Montacute House, another National Trust property, is also worth a visit.
Why not hop on the West Somerset Steam Railway that leaves from Bishops Lydeard?

The whistle shepherds hut in Somerset is a lovely place to stay. Location is beautiful and amenities are good. The hosts are welcoming but also giving you the privacy to enjoy your stay. While we were there we enjoyed watching the antics of the sheep in the field next to the Shepherds hut!??...

We absolutely loved our stay at The Whistle and would highly recommend. The hut and terrace were lovely, the setting was beautiful and so peaceful, and the facilities (pizza over, BBQ, hot tub) amazing. Our neighbours, Eric and Tabitha the pet sheep were lovely, like a pair of big woolly dogs and we enjoyed being able to feed them the occasional biscuit (with the owners permission). We had a wonderful long weekend and would love to come back....

Our stay at The Whistle was pure perfection, we couldn't have asked for anything more and the hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful. Everything exceeded our expectations, we would love to return again in the future.

A lovely break away to recharge.
No need to pack body wash, shampoo & conditioner as provided
In addition to the hot tub being warm & ready, it was lovely to be welcomed with cider, wine, milk & yummy homemade brownies

We had never stayed in a hut before so i booked it for my partners 30th and we had such a relaxing experience. The owners where amazing and provided everything you need. The views are beautiful along with the sheep and lambs as your neighbours. Couldn’t of asked for better. Everyone needs to experience this hut. Make sure you get in the hot tub and star gaze. Or wait for sunrise. Thankyou again Nick & Sally. We will definitely be returning ...
