About this property
Hintock is a beautiful, bespoke shepherd's hut offering the most magnificent views and even an outdoor bath. It is the perfect bolthole for two seeking a tranquil private escape to the countryside.
Step up and enter Hintock through the french doors where you will be greeted by a lovely open-plan living space. To the left is a king-size bed with Egyptian cotton bedding and fantastic views over the rolling Dorset landscape, with plenty of storage space underneath. Opposite the french doors is a comfy leather sofa and television with the kitchen space on the right. The kitchen is well-equipped with an oven, electric hob, fridge freezer and sink - everything you need to cook up a storm after a days exploring. There is a table and chairs for two, again, with stunning views through the window above. The en-suite is through a door at the end of the hut, and is home to a shower, wash basin and WC.
Outside you are treated to your own spa area, with a large stand-alone bath tub with hand-held shower attachment which is privately situated on a patio; a delightful place to unwind and relax with a glass of wine overlooking the surrounding fields. Bespoke wooden deckchairs surround the firepit, which can also be used as a barbecue for cooking alfresco. There is also a bistro seating area which is great for a morning coffee.

Amazing few days here!! The weather was windy and rainy but it did not matter as the hut is so beautiful we wanted to stay inside!! There is everything you could possibly need in the kitchen and very smart appliances too! We stayed over NYE and there was decorations up which made it extra special! Lovely scones left as lots of other bits like coffee, tea, hot chocolate, marshmallows! The outside bath was so nice too even in the cold!

Wow. We were impressed from the moment we saw this little hut. It is exactly as advertised but also has lots of hidden details that make the stay so much nicer. The hut itself, the quality of the finishings, the beautiful peaceful setting, the amazing heating, and the absolutely appreciated flowers and scones with jam and cream, this was a wonderful little, last minute break.We knew we would need to drive places and we planned ahead. With day trips to Lyme Regis and Bath. Multiple supermarkets were not that far away and we stocked up on what we needed. We didn't venture to the village pub but it did look lovely.We absolutely would recommend and we are already looking forward to returning. Thank you so much for accommodating such a last minute booking. We were blown away by the hut and the level of service.
