Cosy en suite shepherd hut on the grounds of Historic building Samlesbury Hall

In the grounds of historic Samlesbury Hall sits a gathering of colourful huts; Samlesbury Hall Shepherd's Hut Hamlet... a rustic and carefree alternative to your traditional hotel room.

Just as luxurious but with a rural edge, the hamlet is home to a collection of beautiful shepherd's huts, hand crafted to keep you toasty in winter and cool in the summer.

The space
Complete with two double beds in European oak, the huts boast all those little extras - memory foam mattresses, low-wattage electricity to keep your phone charged, as well as a cosy en-suite. The bathroom includes a spacious shower, hot water and soft towels, along with luxury toiletries.

The huts are heated and well lit, including a camping lantern to add a rustic touch to your stay (and to light a moonlit walk). Chairs and tables can be taken outside to relax around the fire-pit, or take a seat at one of our picnic benches and enjoy your supper.

Guest access
Escape is easy with a walk through the grounds of the picturesque Samlesbury Hall. If you're looking to explore a little you can take the kids to the Mayflower playground hidden in the woodland in the grounds of the Hall, or to the mini golf course by the hamlet entrance. If the Hall's open it's completely free to visit (don't miss the sweet treats in Dottie's Wafflery!) and the award winning restaurant open for lunches only serves the finest ingredients.

Other things to note
The huts sleep up to four people and are available all year round. Breakfast, lunch and afternoon tea can be enjoyed in the Heritage Cafe from Tuesday to Sunday and we recommend pre-booking a table prior to your arrival.
