How welcomed we felt and how comfortable the place was. You feel in the middle of nowhere and remote but you're only a 5 minute drive from Thornhill and shops if you need anything. I could not recommend this lovely little hut enough :D

We had a lovely stop over stay at the little hut/wagon on the way up to the Highlands. It was very clean, well equipped, cosy and comfortable. It has a quaint and rustic feel that was very welcoming. There's a kettle, microwave and toaster, heater...

A warm space for an overnight on our cycle tour. Hot water is available in the hut and there is a composting toilet to the side. There is a small table and chairs which can be set up inside or on the terrace.

The hut is lovely, lovingly decorated (so many holiday let's are full of cheap mass-produced plastic tack) but the owners of this one have excellent taste! I had to wiggle the water pump a bit but that worked fine. Compost toilets are not new...

My third stay ....the Granny Hut is so charming and comfortable. The lovely personal touches Zoe and Tony have in place give it a perfect ambience. It must be even lovelier in Spring and Summer. See you next year.

This is a warm comfortable Shepherd’sHut, with a king size bed OR two small singles, please let us know if you would like singles. There is a microwave, a toaster, a small COLD water sink, a kettle, and small electric heater. There is a compost toilet. And no shower. The hut is in our garden at the end of a country lane, it has a small deck from which you can watch the wild life and the sun set.
We built our house in 2021 and are in the process of developing our garden with the intention of having a wild life haven for bees, insects, birds, frogs, newts and anyone else who cares to live there.
The house is at the end of a small lane about 2.5 km from the village of Thornhill, there is plenty walking or cycling straight from the door. It is totally quiet at night except for the owls and foxes. There are other houses in the neighbourhood- we are not isolated. Thornhill has two small supermarkets, fish and Chip shop, cafes, and hotel restaurants, all within in a 30 minute walk of the Shepherds Hut.
