Fabulous little find in Bothenhampton, Dorset. A very comfortable Shepherds Hut that’s secluded and in a lovely setting. Location is close by to Bridport and West Bay, ideal for exploring locally and taking country walks. Market day with a variety of stalls on Wednesdays and Saturdays in Bridport that are well worth exploring. The Shepherds Hut is ideal for a quiet country break for two people.
