Property code: OC-95502

A romantic bolthole nestled within the Dorset countryside, this quaint shepherd’s hut is perfect for couples and boasts stunning rural views and an enclosed lawn and decking area with a fire pit. Enjoy hiking through the rolling countryside, take gentle strolls through towns and villages hand in hand, or visit fantastic nearby attractions.

Accessed via a footpath through the working farm, this little sanctuary sits amongst a beautiful backdrop. Climbing short steps outside of the hut, enter through the stable door and into the open-plan living space. Despite how compact this area is, it contains all the practical amenities you will need for your self-catering break. A kitchen area has a two-ring hob, microwave oven, and a fridge, so you can cook up a delicious meal and eat together at the fold-out breakfast bar. Get cosy on the double bed which is at the other end of the hut and flick on the TV to watch your favourite shows. Completing the interior is a rustic-style shower room. Outside is an enclosed lawn area, which is ideal if your dog has come along for the trip. Here, find a cosy decking area with garden furniture and a fire pit. Sip on your favourite tipple as the sun sets in the distance. Private parking for one car is available, located 50 metres away from the hut.

If you are looking for peace in the Dorset countryside, you will find it at this location. However, the bustling centre of Bridport is just 2.5 miles away, so you won’t be far away from shops and eateries.

A beautiful shepherds hut in a quiet and idyllic setting. The shepherds hut has everything you need and the extra goodies supplied on our arrival were lovely. Our dog appreciated the bowl of water ready for her on arrival and the jar of dog treats. Rob and Rebecca were wonderful hosts and Norman the horse was such a character. Take extra apples andRead more carrots for him. If I could I would move in full time. Hide

I had a delightfully peaceful stay in the shepherds hut. It had wonderful facilities, and was exceptionally clean and well-equipped. Waking up each morning to a beautiful view across the Lake was the perfect panacea

We had such a lovely stay! It was so cool having Norman the horse come over to say hello, and our dog Pip absolutely loved the trip too. The views were amazing, the place was super comfy, and we had a really relaxing time. Would definitely stay again!

This was the perfect little get away. Comfy cosy and dog friendly. So peaceful and quiet. The hosts were brilliant friendy and helpful. The hosts gave recommendations of places to go with the dog and places to eat which were all perfect too. Couldn't have asked more from a weekend away. Brilliant.

Lovely well maintained property, big enough for two with a small dog, and has all of the creature comforts thar most people need. Lovely views of the countryside but still close enough to town for supplies.

Beautiful location. Peaceful comfortable clean and well appointed shepherds hut. Lovely enclosed garden surrounding it so our dog could roam about without worry. Hosts were welcoming generous and informative. Great base for exploring the coast and countryside and a five minute drive to Bridport for essentials.

We had a great stay in Little Ashleigh shepherds hut! Becky and Rob are very welcoming hosts, the hut was very clean and comfortable in a very peaceful location with a lovely view! It had everything we (and our spaniel) needed for our stay. It gives great access to the nearby Jurassic coast with its miles of coastal walks and quaint seaside villageRead mores! We would definitely stay again when we are back in Dorset! Hide

My husband and I, along with our dog, had the most lovely stay at the hut. The location is in easy driving distance to many pubs/towns/walks, and the setting on the farm itself is beautiful. We were charmed by Norman the horse who came to say hello shortly after we arrived. The area was securely fenced which was perfect for having a dog. The hut haRead mores everything needed for a comfortable stay and then some - plus plenty of storage. It has been very thoughtfully designed. We hope to return! Hide
