Surrounded by nature and wildlife, this couple’s Shepherd's Hut is ideal for a cosy romantic getaway. Everything you need is in a bright and intimate space with scenic walking trails, lochs and quaint towns nearby. The coast isn’t far away from this rural property, and evenings can be spent dining alfresco in the private enclosed garden while soaking up the countryside views.

Climb four steps to reach the entrance of the Shepherd’s hut and step inside to find a crisp, bright, neutral-toned space with plenty of natural light streaming in through the windows and elegant wooden furnishings. In front of you will be the farm-house style one-wall kitchen where you can cook a meal for two and dine at the table and chairs which look out onto the garden. On your right will be the king-size bed with a swivelling TV so you can enjoy some morning shows with breakfast in bed before starting your day. Underneath the bed is some convenient storage for your belongings. Walk through the wooden door to the left of the hut to find a small shower room.

You’ll feel close to nature during your stay in this property as it’s just a few steps from your bed to the great outdoors. Start your morning with breakfast in the fresh air or stay up late beneath the stars with a bottle of bubbly. In the garden a gravelled area with a romantic bistro set and a lawn backed by mature trees and shrubs.

We stayed here as a stopover and had two lovely nights there. The shepherds hut was clean and had everything you needed for a couple of nights stay. The hut was private and we managed to sit outside on the bistro set one morning with our coffee. We would definitely come back and would recommend.

Really enjoyed our stay and the cabin was prefect. Really appreciated being given the extra hour on Sunday with the delayed check out.
