Come and stay on a working dairy farm in our very comfortable Shepherd's Hut. We're on a quiet lane halfway between Swanage and Corfe Castle and our hut offers wonderful views over the Purbeck countryside. Easy access through our fields up to Ninebarrow Down for walking to Corfe Castle or Swanage.

Sorry no dogs. Up to 2 adults only sleeping in one king bed.

The space
Our hut sleeps up to 2 adults in one king bed and has a well equipped kitchen with hob, oven and fridge, woodburning stove and shower room. Outside there are large Adirondack chairs and a BBQ/firepit. Park at the hut's private gravelled parking area.

Guest access
Guests will need to drive through part of the farm yard and up a short track to reach the hut's private parking area.

Guests are welcome to watch us milking the cows.

Great access through our fields up to Ninebarrow Down for walking to Corfe Castle or Swanage.

Other things to note
We're a working farm so there will be animal and machinery noises at times.

There is not a bed in the living area! It's a shepherd's hut with one king bed for 2 adults.
