We selected the best Shepherd’s Hut builder in the country we could find. They have built a hut custom designed for us, to be spacious, very dog friendly and provide easy access.
The hut is much bigger than standard ones, and is designed for maximum comfort, use and flexibility; with ensuite facilities. It is fully insulated with double glazing, cavity wall insulation and sealed doors and windows to be very cosy.
We are now building our second hut, see here for the latest update.
You can see more pictures of the hut here.
