About this property

Hintock, a bespoke shepherds hut offering the magnificent view and outdoor bath

Hintock is a beautiful, bespoke shepherd's hut offering the most magnificent views and even an outdoor bath. It is the perfect bolthole for two seeking a tranquil private escape to the countryside.

Step up and enter Hintock through the french doors where you will be greeted by a lovely open-plan living space. To the left is a king-size bed with Egyptian cotton bedding and fantastic views over the rolling Dorset landscape, with plenty of storage space underneath. Opposite the french doors is a comfy leather sofa and television with the kitchen space on the right. The kitchen is well-equipped with an oven, electric hob, fridge freezer and sink - everything you need to cook up a storm after a days exploring. There is a table and chairs for two, again, with stunning views through the window above. The en-suite is through a door at the end of the hut, and is home to a shower, wash basin and WC.

Outside you are treated to your own spa area, with a large stand-alone bath tub with hand-held shower attachment which is privately situated on a patio; a delightful place to unwind and relax with a glass of wine overlooking the surrounding fields. Bespoke wooden deckchairs surround the firepit, which can also be used as a barbecue for cooking alfresco. There is also a bistro seating area which is great for a morning coffee.

Amazing weekend away for a special birthday!

I took my partner away for a special birthday and we had the most amazing time! The property was extremely clean and had everything required for our stay. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything needed and there was a complimentary afternoon tea upon arrival. Gaining access to the property was easy and stress free. We thoroughly enjoyed spending time in the outside area and we will definitely be coming back in the future.

Beautiful shepherds hut in a beautiful location.

Really beautiful shepherds hut in a beautiful location. Peaceful with gorgeous view of the country side. The hut was really comfortable with all that you need. The outside bath was a lovely treat too. It was private and on it's own just what we wanted. We walked to the local pub and the food there was very good. Sherbourne was a lovely place to visit too. Only stayed for 2 nights but felt like we had been away longer. Well rested after relaxing in this beautiful spot.
