Poachers Hut – a cosy private luxurious Shepherds Hut with Hot Tub and Pizza Oven. It sits on its own in the far away corner of its own field and if you enjoy the countryside, quietness, big skies, starry moonlit nights, wildlife, you will love it here. It has oak floors, comfy double bed, chairs, table, fridge, micro, nespresso coffee, kettle, toaster, electric pan, cosy woodburner and en-suite shower & toilet, Netflix TV, WIFI, Alexa. Outside a private south facing patio, table, chairs, Kadai fire pit/bbq, electric always on hot tub with massage jets. There's also a wood fired pizza oven on your patio. Generous bundles of wood and kindling is supplied and there is more to purchase.
I love (in no particular order!) gardening, walking, books, flowers, farming, wildlife, nature, being outdoors, my friends, cats, sheep, hens, goats, husband, and enjoying life every day.
"The Poachers Hut at Keepers Cottage" shepherds hut is set amidst some of the most picturesque scenery in the Trossachs in central Scotland and only 1.5 hours from Edinburgh and Glasgow. It has a stunning big sky setting within the Cardross Estate of over four thousand acres of fields and woodland, with no light or noise pollution and lots of wildlife (some rare) all around.

Lots of places to visit for breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, drinks, coffees etc nearby. Bike rental available in Aberfoyle and they will deliver to the shepherds hut. The Woodhouse deli/butcher, 10 minutes away, is great for bbq or picnic rations. Poachers Hut is situated on the edge of the Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park and there are lots and lots of things to see and do close by - cycle, walk, climb, golf, fish, wild swimming, paddle boarding, gorge-walking, discover, visit - then come back and relax, make your own pizza in the wood fired oven and chill by the fire pit or star gaze from your very own "always on" electric massage jet hot tub - bliss!
