Our Shepherds Huts at Dittisham Hideaway are available from April the 15th 2022. They have been hand crafted to our high specification by West Country Artisans who take the greatest of pride in their craft, and who lovingly build them to detailed perfection.
Shared with 4 other Shepherds Huts, all are positioned in the old meadow of wild flowers with lovely views down the wooded valley.
The Shepherds Hut has a generous 234 sq. ft. of space and is 26 ft. long having been designed to comfortably accommodate 2 adults in luxury, with 1 luxury king bed however the adjoining Mini Shepherds Hut (9 ft. x 7 ft.), provides a total accommodation for 2 adults and upto 4 children (under 16 years old).
The Children’s own private mini Shepherds Hut has 2 sets of bunk beds situated next to the main Shepherds Hut and is linked by camera/sound intercom to the main Hut. We suggest young children are not left alone in the children’s hut and that one of the adults stays with them in the mini hut.
The exquisite interior of the huts boasts designer fabrics, made-to-measure furnishings and bespoke fittings alongside a traditional wood-burning stove, relaxation area with coffee table, fully-equipped kitchen, foldaway breakfast bar, a king-size double bed, generous bathroom with double walk-in power shower.
Each has its own private terrace with an outdoor wood-fired spa bath, Adirondack loungers, teak dining table and chairs with parasol, a fire pit and a double hammock.
2 well behaved dogs may join in the holiday with the provision of bowls and some treats. Dogs must be on the lead at all times whilst on the Dittisham Hideaway property. There are many public footpath country walks in the neighbourhood.
You will find the communal games barn is ideal for the days you wish to spend relaxing on-site – perhaps reading your holiday novel with a glass of something delicious in hand while the children play table tennis, chess or table football. Adults are allowed to join in the fun too!
Set the mood for the evening, appreciate the night sky, enjoy your favourite foods cooked on the BBQ followed by toasted marshmallows over the fire pit and then sink into the warm waters of the outdoor spa bath… c’est parfait!

Continue the historical theme with a visit to The Abbey Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul; once a Benedictine monastery, it is now one of the largest examples of Gothic architecture in the West Country. We recommend taking a Tower Tour, where you will climb the 212 steps to experience the fan-vaulted ceilings, clockface and spectacular city views.
Why not stroll on the Bath Skyline Walk, a six-mile route through meadows, ancient woodlands and pretty valleys, an alternative way to see Bath differently? A long walk must be rewarded with a treat, and there is nothing better than an afternoon tea of sandwiches and delicate cakes to restore your energy. We recommend the Georgian Pump Room Restaurant, which serves a glass of mineral spa water to accompany your feast.
If you want to explore further afield, the barn is perfectly situated. The city of Bristol, Longleat Safari, Cheddar Gorge and the famous town of Glastonbury are all under an hour’s drive away.
