Dimpsey Hither Hut
HUT DESCRIPTION
In a nutshell…
We want staying in the hut to feel like a luxury hotel, so we’ve tried to go the extra mile to make it really comfortable for you, ensuring that all the styling is from British designers and adding in extra little treats to delight you.
The hut is 18 feet long and contains a double bed, seating, kitchen area and a bathroom with shower and flushing toilet.
Dimpsey Slumber Space
In our opinion, there’s nothing worse than having to make a bed every day, so our double bed pulls down out of the wall fully made with luxury British bed linen and cosy blankets. You can either leave it down and use the sofa bench seat to lounge on during the day…or tuck it away again when you’re ready.
We also have a lovely long day bed which makes for comfy magazine reading, or just gazing out at the view across the hills. Our fairy lights and board games, make for cosy evenings – with a log burner for you to light on a really cold day.
Dimpsey Dining
The Dimpsey Hither hut has a hand-built oak table and sheepskin-covered bench which is built to seat up to 4 people, but with only two of you staying in the hut it ensures ample room for the two of you to dine and enjoy with plenty of space.
We have a gas hob, fridge and small belfast sink within the hut and we supply a starter pack of tea, coffee and hot chocolate. Outside the shepherd’s hut we have an oak covered outdoor kitchen area, complete with a wood-fired garden oven, plus outdoor washing-up area with Belfast sink with hot & cold taps.
All essential utensils and crockery are provided – there’s a list in the Welcome Pack.
We can also provide meals upon request and have also provided Places to Eat recommendations on the site.
AMENITIES
Private Entrance
Both of our huts have separate entrances as well as being over two fields apart so you can be assured that you have all the privacy you need.

Fold-Down Wall Bed
The Hither Hut comes with a fold-down wall bed (double) which can be easily lifted to unveil a seating area and table, and brought down when you are ready for your slumber.
Wood-fired Hot Tub
Our Hither Hot Tub is tucked away with fairy lights and candles to ensure the most relaxing of experiences.
Dimpsey Extras
We’ve tried to think of some extra bits and pieces that will be useful, like a lovely little flask and enamel mugs to take with you, as well as a local map, if you go walking, We also have a vintage picnic basket – for which we can provide sandwiches and treats for if you let us know in advance.
Seasonal
We style the hut with things that we think you will enjoy, so the contents do change now and then. We do this so that you have lovely and unique items to enjoy while you’re here – and we can also say, hand-on-heart that we don’t use anything that we haven’t tried ourselves. If you do fall in love with something, let us know as we can source you similar items.
