This fabulous Shepherds Retreat offers the freedom of glamping, dished up with a silver spoon! Currently being built with discerning outdoorsy travellers in mind, the hut provides unique accommodation for either a couple, a small group of friends (no more than 4) or a families who want a little luxury, alongside a lot of fun with an extra topping of romantic charm and an abundance of fresh air and countryside.
One of a kind, the Shepherds Retreat offers remote exclusivity and more space than the norm, being cleverly built from two shepherds huts to provide a unique combination of simple yet well equipped holiday accommodation with lots of traditional appeal for the upmost comfort.
Successfully running Well Furlong Cottage in this beautiful quiet corner of the Cotswolds, the owners know a thing or two about ensuring guests have everything needed for an enjoyable and relaxing stay from the extra special touches to provide the upmost comfort, to the magic of the setting with an outdoor Jacuzzi, fire-pit for star gazing, BBQ for alfresco meals, luxury outdoors furniture for relaxing and beautiful views over 80-acres of organic farmland which guests are free to roam.
Whilst enjoying a beautifully quiet location, the shepherds hut is within walking distance of the centre of Little Comberton village and walking or cycling distance of the excellent pub, The Queens in nearby Elmley Castle - a great place for a long lazy lunch either at the pub or on the village green whilst watching cricket and enjoying a picnic. Sitting on the edge of the Cotswolds, Little Comberton is well placed away from the busier tourist hot-spots, yet within easy reach of Worcester (11-miles), Cheltenham (20-minutes) with its famous racecourse, Gloucester (just over half an hour by car) and historic Stratford-Upon-Avon, the birthplace of William Shakespeare - all offering superb opportunities for shopping, eating out and an abundance of attractions. Closer to home, local attractions include the Cotswold Safari Park, Tiddesley Wood, golf clubs and equestrian centres, centuries-old churches, market towns and National Trust properties.
The Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is a firm favourite for a weekend away in the country or longer holiday exploring Central England, not just for its beautiful scenery but also for the ease in which it can be reached. The Shepherds Hut is available all year round for short breaks during the winter months and longer week-long stays during the peak weeks, giving you the chance to experience the beauty of its changing scenery in every season.
