Shepherds hut holiday rentals in Mendip District

An absolutely dreamy escape for two! complete with scenic views, and enough special touches to feel at home. Fiona made everything so comfortable and we look forward to coming back!

Had the best couple of days staying at the hut, was greeted by Alexandra who was extremely friendly and helpful she showed us the facilities and hut. hut itself was a lovely little place, we could've happily stayed for longer. If we are ever back in the area we would definitely stay again, thanks so much :)

Loved staying here for a second year in a row. The hideaway hut is tranquil and the perfect break from a busy life. Love nothing more than relaxing in the hot tub and listening to nature surrounding us. Thanks again for another perfect weekend away!

Sam's place was a joy to stay at! It's an annexe of an old house on the high street with a lovely bedroom overlooking a courtyard and a spacious living room and kitchen area which overlook the garden. The garden is full of fruit trees and wonderful plants and is very well tended. A bathroom and a second toilet made getting out in the morning easy as well. Castle Cary is a wonderful town (recommend the Somerset Wine Company and the Gallery which Sam and his wife run!) We did use the jacuzzi (for an additional fee) and sitting in there listening to the live jazz from the bar and looking at the stars was a dream. We made a new friend in Bobby (the dog) who just wanted to play fetch Loved our night there and would happily return!

Cosy little Shepherds hut, perfect for a night away. Will most definitely be returning. Many thanks

What a beautiful little place! Fiona is a lovely host and the place is beautiful with everything you need. Much needed reset for my husband and I. Thank you! 😊

Amazing stay at Mark’s shepherds hut. Incredible location, super peaceful and as described. Well kitted out. We had a lovely BBQ and enjoyed some marshmallows say around the fire. The abbey nearby was worth a visit and had a swim in the river. Would definitely visit again. Thanks Mark.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Amanda's Shepherd's Hut. It is small for 3 people but it's so cosy and very comfortable with everything we needed. The location is perfect, really beautiful with lots to do and in the heart of the New Forest. Amanda was a wonderful host, we really enjoyed her company and we learnt a lot about forest life. We loved her place and all her animals and would definately recommended it and I'm sure we will be going back there! Also the breakfast was so delicious! Thank you so much Amanda, you are a very lovely and inspiring woman. xxx

A beautiful space with so many thoughtful touches throughout, including homemade sourdough bread and preserves. Great amenities, peaceful surroundings, and an incredibly helpful…but never intrusive host! We would definitely recommend, and return.

Enjoyed immensely. The place itself was exactly as pictured and so peaceful. Jessica (the host) was so responsive and was great communicating off the app as I had some difficulty using it. So much stuff to do nearby and full itinerary provided by host. Could not recommend enough, can’t wait to visit again!

I had a little solo trip & it was a perfect little safe haven for me!! Felt very private & loved the outside space with the couple of ponds etc. but I still felt like Liz would be around if I needed her, plus it was gated etc. liz did pop by to check I was ok too which was nice! So felt very secure, private & it was very peaceful! Which I didn’t expect being so close to the city. Bed was really comfortable & it had everything I needed! Perfect staycation 🙌🏻

An absolutely beautiful place to stay! My husband and I spent our 1st wedding anniversary here and couldn’t have chosen better. Waking up to the stunning countryside views was incredibly peaceful and serene. Each day, we took short trips into Bath to explore the city, then returned to the calm and comfort of the countryside in the evening, it was the perfect balance. Laura was a wonderfully friendly and responsive host, ensuring everything was spotless for our arrival. She even left us some delicious local food, which made for the perfect breakfast on our first morning.

Wonderful shepherd's hut near plenty of interesting things to do, or just relax and chill out as the area is so peaceful. Everything you could possibly want and more has been thought of my the hosts with so many sweet touches to make your stay lovely. Perfect place for star gazing as you're out in the countryside and our dog loved the stay too! Would definitely recommend and would love to stay again

The retreat is just as described. Peaceful, private and the perfect place for a weekend away. Janice and Robert provided some excellent recommendations for things to do nearby. Highly recommend!

I had a lovely stay at Andrea’s place! The accommodation was clean, cosy, and exactly as described. The location was peaceful and ideal for unwinding, and Andrea was a thoughtful and responsive host. Would happily stay again – highly recommended!

Amazing stay - exactly what we needed, peace and quiet. Lovely setting and perfect little hut. Will 1000% be back as soon as possible!!

We had such a wonderful stay for my partners birthday, Clive went the extra mile to make us feel welcome by putting up some birthday decorations and leaving us some treats for when we arrived. It's a perfect place to get away and unwind in nature, we were always surrounded by animals whether it was Norman the cat visiting during a bbq, hanging out with the goats, or watching the ducks drift about in the stream while relaxing in the hot tub. Thank you very much to Clive and Nikki for hosting us. I cannot recommend Kingfisher enough, we truly had an amazing time :)

Mike's place was an absolute dream for our pre-baby, relaxing getaway with our Whippet! It completely exceeded our expectations. The location is perfect, right on the SW coast path yet feeling wonderfully secluded, while still being just a quick 5-minute drive to Lyme Regis. Although the listing mentioned the garden wasn't fully secure, we found it to be very secure for our Whippet which was an added bonus. There are also several gates to pass through on the way from the parking area, adding to the security. Our dog lovedddd running about with a frisbee and then sunbathing ha! We honestly loved the property so much (especially the pool!) that we barely left, only venturing out for morning coffee and breakfast. Mike's recommendations were spot on – Poco Pizza was fantastic for takeaway, and communication was excellent throughout. We'll be hard-pressed to find another Airbnb that compares and look forward to coming back with our baby. Thank you!

A wonderful stay at the Collie for 2 nights. A wonderful well equipped Sheppard's Hut and the extra special touches that Chloe provided from the arrival hamper to the hot tub being preheating for arrival. The views across the Somerset levels are beautiful and the night time sky was perfect for relaxing around the fire/bbq and in the hot tub. Thr local area of Glastonbury and cider farms add to this lovely weekend.

My partner and I had an amazing stay at this Airbnb. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and at home. The place was spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, and had all the little touches that made it feel special — from the cozy bedding to the well-stocked kitchen. This was such a lovely trip for us as a couple, and we’re already talking about coming back. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a romantic, restful escape!

Sally was a great host, welcomed us in and explained everything so we could make the most of the amenities. She recommended great places to go and the shepherd's hut was lovely and cosy. Can't ever go wrong with a hut tub too! Would stay again!

The shepherd’s hut was cozy, beautifully crafted, and nestled in a peaceful wooded setting—perfect for unplugging and unwinding. The hot tub under the trees was a highlight, especially in the evening with the sounds of nature all around. Thoughtful touches and a warm welcome made our stay even more special. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a serene retreat."

Great Place, super quiet and peaceful. Comfortable well equipped hut easy walk to lacock village Great host Highly recommended

We had the most wonderful stay in this charming shepherd’s hut. It was warm, beautifully decorated, and perfectly peaceful. The highlight was definitely the hot tub — relaxing under the stars was such a treat. And the baby goats! They were absolutely adorable, playful, and made the whole experience feel even more special. We loved spending time with them and couldn’t stop smiling. A perfect little getaway for anyone needing some rest, fresh air, and a touch of countryside magic.
