These shepherd’s huts have been built with the environment at the heart of their design - over 80% of the materials used for the build being recycled upcycled or reclaimed, all being sourced locally. The shower runs off collected rainfall, the toilet is composting (you will see no difference!) and electricity is by solar power or local green energy (seldom needed).

The huts are cosy with all fundamental facilities provided; traditionally meals would be created on top of the wood burner, and you are encouraged to give this a go using the cast iron crockery provided.
