Stay in a luxury shepherds hut in the stunning Surrey Hills, only an hour from London. A perfect couples escape with a beautiful private hot tub under the trees and wellness area with sauna/cold plunge, bookable as an extra. We are located near Box Hill, you can enjoy countryside walks, spectacular views and visit some lovely local gastropubs. We are dog friendly for an extra fee. We supply a variety of grazing platters too. The perfect stay for birthdays, anniversaries and special nights away!

The space
Little Lodge is kitted out like a small boutique hotel room. With a king size bed and an Emma tempur mattress you are guaranteed a good nights sleep!

Our fully equipped kitchen has a Nespresso coffee machine, microwave, 2 ring ceramic hob, large butlers sink and a small fridge with ice box. We provide basic condiments, oil, herbs, spices, tea, coffee, sugar, milk sachets and coffee pods plus some extra goodies for you to enjoy!

The bathroom has a good size electric shower, hand basin, complimentary vegan, uk made toiletries, his and hers bath robes and because the lodges are off grid and in the woods we have a top of the range eco friendly waterless WC.

You will also have your own gorgeous private wood fired hot tub in the garden. The hot tub is an authentic outdoor bathing experience, no plastic or electric in sight…Just enjoy the smell of the lovely wood burner and the warmth of the water as you sit amongst the trees and under the stars.

We will get the hot tub fire started for you and it will be ready for you to use at check in. We will leave plenty of firelighters, kindling and logs for you to use in the wood burner. Unlike a lot of other huts, we don’t charge extra for logs or for using the hot tub!

We also have a fire-pit which you can use with a grill provided as a bbq, but please do bring your own charcoal.

Outside is a lovely large grass lawn and a seating area with two wooden lounge chairs and footstools for chilling out by the firepit. We have a pretty picnic table for outdoor dining and we even have a gorgeous couples swing seat in a private pergola underneath the trees!

New for 2026: we have a beautiful wellness area behind the hut that includes a wood fired barrel sauna, cold plunge pool and a relaxing seating area. You can book a 2 hour session (4-6, 6-8, 8-10pm) and enjoy the area as a private add on experience for just £20. Hot and cold therapy is known to have great health, skin and mind benefits and makes for a luxury addition to your stay!

Guest access
Little Lodge is located in a lovely green paddock which is fully fenced and dog secure, with views over looking a lawned area full of mature specimen trees.

It is situated on a plot of land adjacent to our property and is beautifully private and hidden away just for our guests to enjoy.

You can park in a dedicated parking area and access to Little Lodge is down a short woodland path.

Behind Little Lodge is Secret Lodge, our second identical shepherds hut, entirely private and in a more woodland setting. The two huts face completely opposite directions, are completely private from each other and do not overlook each other in any way.

Please note that occasional road noise is to be expected as the road past the house goes to Box Hill, which is a popular tourist destination, particular over weekends and during school holidays.

Other things to note
