Relax, unwind, connect with nature in a hand crafted shepherds hut in the heart of the wild Purbeck Jurassic coastline. This stunning privately owned hidden unspoilt piece of land is surrounded by untouched ancient woodland, flowing stream, wild meadow and is central to iconic Purbeck walking routes and hosts a private view of the Purbeck Steam Train passing by.
Immerse yourself with peace and quiet with only the local wildlife as your Neighbours.
Note, this is an adults only retreat
The space
Important note: we run adults only camping in the adjacent field from July-August. The Bullhorn accommodation is still completely private and has its own separate paddock away from the camping field.
The Hut is situated deep within the Purbeck Valley between Corfe Castle & Swanage and is central to local iconic walking routes. Approximately 2 acres of private grassy paddocks, flowing streams and woodland surround this beautiful little hidden gem. The area is also home to an abundance of local wildlife as well as few ponies, sheep and farm cats which may come and pay you visit from time to time.
The Hut itself was hand crafted in 2018 by Lower Bridge Shepherds huts and is fully insulated throughout and has mains electric and mains hot/cold drinking water supply. It has a well equipped Kitchenette with a kettle, cafetiere, toaster, electric hobs, utensils and mini fridge.
A newly fitted hand crafted double bed for the best night sleep with storage below.
The lounge consists of two arm chairs with an electric wood burner.
The bathroom facilities are private to this rental and are newly fitted and situated in a separate shepherd's hut 15 metres from the hut and includes a electric power shower, toilet, sink and heated towel rail.
All bed linen and towels are also provided.
Outside we have a firepit with the first basket of logs provided so just bring the marshmallows!
A hammock under tree to get out of the mid-day sun.
Outdoor seating is also provided along with a bistro style dinning table.
We are huge dog lovers, well behaved dogs are welcome, please bring your pooches water bowl and bed/towels with you. But please be respectful of the local wildlife and farm animals.
Other things to note
Bed linens, bath towels/sheets
A selection of breakfast cereals, milk, cafetiere ground coffee, tea and biscuits are
Other things to note
The accommodations are cleaned thoroughly between each stay but being based in a woodland if windows & doors are left open, please don't be surprised if the occasional insect appears.

Hi, I'm Nathan, a stonemason & local Purbeckian from Swanage currently living in Poole with my wife Steph . I've grown up loving the outdoors and I'm a lover of extreme sports.
My family still live in Purbeck and we're creating all these amazing retreats on our private land spread across Swanage & Harmans Cross, where we grew up.
We have been hosting since 2018 and loved it so much that we'll be continuing to expand so watch this space!
