This utterly beautiful shepherd’s hut is nestled in a pretty, wildlife-rich corner at the edge of Wells-next-the-Sea. It has its own private drive, parking and garden on the small Blue Skies Campsite.
The hut is equipped with all the comforts you’d expect in self-catering accommodation except wifi, TV and oven. In the winter months, the wood burner keeps you toasty. The kitchenette includes a full-size fridge and the en suite has a heated towel rail. The bed is luxuriously comfortable, with hotel-quality sheets and towels. There is plenty of outside space and extra seating for you to bask in the sun.

Your host
Zoe has lovingly decorated, furnished and stocked the hut to provide every comfort you’ll need for a special, romantic break. She is in love with Wells-next-the-Sea and wants your day to be special too. Her own preference is to swim, walk, cycle, sail and kayak the creeks and countryside but you might just want to relax with a good book or newspaper, chilled wine or coffee. She can make recommendations for how to get the most from your stay.
She also runs Sea Pink – bijou, boutique holiday accommodation for two in the centre of Wells – plus The Den, a beach hut which you can book separately.
