Overview

Adults-only shepherd hut retreat with wood-fired hot tubs on a family farm in the Vale of Belvoir

Rooms

Each shepherd hut at Fair Farm Hideaway has its own private entrance with an elevated terrace and private patio area that overlooks the lakes, wildflower fields, and countryside. All huts include en-suite facilities with towels and linen provided, and the bed offers storage space underneath for luggage. The huts are named after sheep breeds, including Lincoln Longwool, Badger Face, Ryeland, Jacob, Masham, Swaledale, and Border Leicester, with each hut offering a slightly different view of the farm.

The huts have their own private BBQ and fire-pit, and each includes a wood-fired hot tub with complimentary wood provided for the entire stay. Guests can request the hot tub to be pre-heated prior to arrival for a fee of £10, allowing immediate use upon check-in.
