Description

Quirky Hawkings Hideaway with Hot Tub and Woodburner

Set on a farm on the outskirts of Exmoor National Park, 20 miles from the estuary town of Barnstaple and 28 miles from glorious Westward Ho! Beach, hide away in the countryside and enjoy day trips out to the coast with a stay at Hawkings Hut.

This roomy Shepherd’s Hut exceeds the typical glamping experience.  Set on a private 5 acre field, this Shepherd’s Hut is larger than average, plus has a comparatively roomy kitchen area with a hob, breakfast bar and extras like a kettle, toaster, and Nespresso coffee machine for a more luxurious experience.  The warming woodburner offers warmth and atmosphere and there is a delightful cabin style bed for you to climb in to with the one you love.  The cabin bed area even has a window right next to it and curtains for an extra cosy feel.

Outside this hut continues to impress with its idyllic setting nestled by the trees.  There is a generous decked area which has views to die for over the surrounding countryside.  This is a great spot to sit out and soak up the setting.  Also outside is where you’ll find the inviting bubbly wood fired hot tub, as well as a firepit.  You can even book a pizza oven here by arrangement. 

Another appealing feature of this shepherd’s hut is that it has an outdoor loo cubicle and a rustic shower cubicle giving more privacy.

This homely and cosy hut enjoys an idyllic setting nestled by trees and immersed in countryside, and could be the perfect place to relax and unwind with the one you love in rural Devon close to Dulverton.
