About this property

Luxury Shepherds Hut, outdoor area and hot tub

Our most traditional Shepherd’s Hut, Willow is cosy yet beautifully stylish. The hut comfortably accommodates a king size bed, log burner, and shower room. You’ll also have underfloor heating, a 32 inch Samsung TV, and Nespresso coffee machine. Outside, there is a private and spacious patio with outdoor seating, a hot tub and fire pit – ideal for al fresco breakfast, and relaxing in the evening with views across the horse paddocks.

Experience a luxury glamping break on a farm in the Suffolk countryside. All of our shepherd’s huts have private hot tubs, as well as everything you need for a memorable stay. Cook up a delicious BBQ on our fire pit or snuggle under a blanket watching the stars. Set within 70 acres of grazing paddocks, apple orchards and woodlands, they make for a truly relaxing get-away.

Woodthorpes is a family-owned farm in the beautiful Suffolk countryside. Independent (and out of sight) from the main home, you’ll be surrounded by open fields and peaceful grazing horses. There are many wonderful routes for walking and bike riding which makes our 70 acre farm the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

You’ll be staying on the doorstep of Arger Fen, a large nature reserve and beauty spot, which you can reach easily by foot. A short walk will take you into the village of Assington which has a gastropub, cafe and farmshop offering local produce.

Nearby is the historic and popular tourist town of Lavenham – a Harry Potter filming location. Five minutes by car are two golf courses, a spa and gin tasting distillery. There’s plenty of ways to relax or unwind, in this stunning part of Suffolk.

Lovely get away before Christmas madness!

My partner and I stayed in The Willows Hut for three days and we had a great time unwinding. We loved how peaceful and quiet it was and we especially loved the heated flooring in the hut, the super comfy bed and of course the hot tub! Thank you for a lovely stay.

very enjoyable & relaxing

the peace & quiet, and the quality of the accommodation. But disappointed that normal TV seemed not to be available. Annoyed that a random dog (local?) turned up & entered Hut while we were in hot tub. Freeze box in fridge totally frosted up, and therefore unusable. But overall, we loved our short stay, and wish to go again

We're 4 friends who booked both huts for a long weekend together and it was just what we needed! The huts are lovely and cosy and the facilities are great! We enjoyed the hot tubs and making s'mores by the fire in the most peaceful location, The hosts are super friendly aswell and go out of their way to help! The perfect place to unwind - can't wait to come back!

Calming, unique stay.

We liked the location of the place and how you only see fields when you look out your windows. The place was nice and warm with the heating and fire, bed was really comfortable. We enjoyed using the hot tub and outside fire, it was good that the hot tub was immediately ready for use. We had some trouble with the oven and coffee machine (difficulty using) even when following instructions, but that was just a tiny issue. The breakfast hamper was lovely and I got more than I expected to!

Peaceful and relaxing

We enjoyed our stay in the Willow hut which was very charming. The bed was very comfortable and we had everything we needed. The hot tub was great. The information folder was very helpful to us being able to plan our days and we were only 20-30 min drive to the tourist sites which meant not a lot of driving.
