Lady's Well Shepherd's Hut
3244 is no longer with usIf you were looking for cottages like Lady's Well Shepherd's Hut, how about trying these:
Staying in this beautifully presented shepherd's hut gives you a rare and - so often nowadays - hard to come by opportunity to have a secret and secluded location all to yourselves. No one overlooks you here in the fields below the treeline, where the Mendip Hills dip down to the west Somerset coast.
One of the favourite spots for you to discover is a viewing platform tucked into the edge of the woodland, in the top corner of the field above the hut. From here you can see the sea and on a clear day, right across the Bristol Channel. You have exclusive use of the viewing platform and the owners provide blankets and a Stargazer telescope to take up with you - it is perfect for sundowners, wildlife watching, meditation and of course, stargazing!
The whole area leading up into the Mendips is not only one of the UK's Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty but the farmstead itself is a Site of Special Scientific Interest. This means that the countryside here is unspoilt.
The magic of this very special experience includes a hot tub and a tranquil natural spring-fed pond with a little jetty. Lady's Well Shepherd's Hut has the sense of an oasis. The hut and its hot tub sit in a fully enclosed garden along with the pond, which you will only ever share with the visiting birds - ducklings in the spring, kingfishers if you are lucky and buzzards high up on the thermals above the ridge of the valley.
