Built in 2022, this gorgeous shepherd’s hut offers a luxury glamping experience in the small village of Newchurch. Set just off a secluded bridleway, it’s the perfect base for walkers and cyclists alike. Why not visit the local pretty village of Godshill, lined with thatched cottages and a great selection of tea rooms, shops and pubs it’s certainly worth the visit. The Garlic Farm (1 mile) and Harvey browns (3 miles), both offer an impressive selection of homegrown or local produce making these spots a must for the foodies. Looking further afield, attractions like Carisbrooke Castle, Osborne House and the Roman Villa make the perfect day out for history lovers, or Amazon World, Tapnell Farm, The Steam Railway and Dinosaur Isle are perfect for a family day out. Not forgetting that Sandown and Shanklin offer long sandy beaches and can be reached within 5.5 miles.

A couple of steps lead you up to a lovely stable door which sets the scene of this luxury glamping stay. As you enter this well-thought-out hut, you’ll immediately be met with a cosy, relaxing feel to the main space. It’s impossible not to shut off from everyday life in this gorgeous space. To the right you’ll find the snug sleeping area with a king-size bed and Smart TV, the perfect space to rest and relax ready for another day of exploring. There are two comfortable armchairs with a fold-out table, ideal for indoor dining or for warming up by the fire after a long day on the local hiking paths. The kitchen area is beautifully finished and well-equipped, providing everything you’ll need for your countryside escape. The final space in this lovely hut is the stylish, space-saving shower room.

Finally, as we head back out to the front of the hut, there is a private patio area with outdoor seating overlooking a beautiful willow tree, where this gorgeous hut gets it’s name. As you move round to the side there’s a private gazebo for two with comfortable seating, overlooking the country gardens and bridleway. Lastly, if you head out over the gardens you’ll find the BBQ and fire pit hut with indoor seating.

Absolutely beautiful location with plenty of green space, seclusion and a real sun spot on the right day, but with plenty of options for shade. The finish of the Shepherds hut is incredibly good and the bed is so comfy, being king size. Excellent hosts and a great location on the Island to be able to reach all corners and attractions. The fire hut Read moreis a big bonus for those who love to cook on open fires. Excellent produce around locally as well and loads of walks and nature everywhere. Book now! Hide

Amazing little hideaway! Really peaceful location. Owners were super friendly, and made sure the hut was well equipped, even down to a bottle of red!! Summerhouse was a wonderful place to sit in the evenings, and the area was beautiful. Well worth a visit, especially for wildlife lovers!! If your really lucky you may even see a mole!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location is briliant: in the quiet countryside, with easy access to everywhere on the island. Our hosts, Ollie and Rachel are very warm and welcoming and have a wealth of knowledge about places to visit, the best places to eat, etc. All in all, it was an excellent week, providing us with many happy memories!

The woodland location was particularly stunning for us- to be woken by the sound of the cuckoo was very special. But to be able to walk on such a variety of footpaths directly from the hut was also stunning. The shepherds hut was the perfect bolt hole. We loved the interior decor & the facilities on offer- everything had been very carefully plannedRead more & organised. The attention to detail was fabulous. Dark skies and such an eclectic range of bird life in an AONB made the holiday very special. Hide
