Fairfield Shepheards Hut

- 2 nights min stay
£145.00 per night
Chris and Tracey know a thing or two about how to set up a home. For years they lived in a house Chris built on his father’s land, but when that land was sold they came to Acorn Farm, where they bought and converted the chicken house that they still call home. So it’s no surprise that when it came to creating a shepherd’s hut camp, they were in their element. The old pagan tree circle at the centre of a field seemed the perfect spot, making the whole space feel like one giant room, not forgetting you also have use of the whole 45 acre farm. Chris set to work on constructing a spacious family hut, with two double bunks beds and a single that works as a sofa, plus a communal dining table on one side and the kitchen down the other. A second hut houses the shower and a compost loo and despite the complete seclusion of the site, both the bathroom and the kitchen sink have hot running water and there’s even a charging point for phones. After Chris had built all the functional stuff, Tracey got creative. A retro theme spans the 50s and 60s, from the cutlery to the taps, the radio and an old sewing machine, but she also filled trunks and boxes with rugs, hampers, board games and outdoor sports things, so you’ll have plenty to do either in the hut or in the big flat meadow area at the bottom of the field. They set up a barbecue spot under one of the larger trees, hung lanterns all around the circle and Acorn Farm was done. They are now ready to welcome you into their private paradise, greet you with wine and cheese and introduce you to the friendly farm animals (children and dogs even get their own little goodie pack too!) or alternatively, leave you to your own devices in the magic of a tranquil circle of trees on the edge of the beautiful peace of Dartmoor. Be prepared to totally forget life outside of Acorn Farm, as Chris and Tracey have made sure everything is thought of, so you can completely relax.

The beautifully furnished master bedroom is both luxurious and relaxing with a king size bed and the aforementioned freestanding bathtub. The dark wood behind the bed contrasts wonderfully with the white walls and ceiling, adding an extra layer of sophistication. The second bedroom features twin beds and there is a stylish bathroom with a rainfall shower for bracing morning soaks. Step through the big double doors in the lounge and out onto the deck for a bit of alfresco dining amongst. In the evenings follow the trail up to the shared meadow and get the fire pit going. If you want to get out and about there’s plenty to do in the local area. The location is perfect for those who love the outdoors and the Slapton Ley National Nature Reserve is just two miles away. It’s the largest natural freshwater lake in the south west and a haven for wildlife with circular walks taking you around the water. Just next to the nature reserve, there’s a huge sweeping beach where you can splash around in the sea or lie back in the sunshine. There’s also easy access to the South West Coastal Path which is a great way to explore more of the area.
