Shepherd's Delight is set in a truly idyllic setting.
There is a large lakeside decking-area with a gas griddle/plancha, chiminea and picnic table in front of the hut.
Open up the double stable-doors and make the most of this beautiful and peaceful setting.
This is the front of Shepherd's Delight, with double doors that open up so that you can really be a part of the surroundings.
This really is a very peaceful, romantic setting.
Looking back to Shepherd's Delight from the deck.
A perfect romantic retreat.
The cheerful interior with its little stove for atmospheric evenings - or lazy mornings in bed.
There is a little dining-area next to the wood-burner in the cheerful and cosy interior.
There's a sweet little window looking back up your entrance track allowing plenty of light into the hut.
The little wood-burner will keep you very warm on cooler days.
A comfortable double bed is tucked into one end of the shepherd's hut - the en suite is at the other.
A few games are provided for your use.
You will have all the equipment you will need for your luxury glamping holiday.
The en suite shower-room with shower and proper flushing toilet.
There is a wash-basin with hot and cold running water.
Open up the doors and enjoy that gorgeous view over the lake and countryside beyond.
What a setting for al fresco dining.
There is a chiminea provided for evening outside warmth.
A beautiful way to start the day.
There are a couple of rowing boats provided for your use. Please take care.
Looking across the lake towards Shepherd's Delight.
The lily filled lake, complete with rowing boats - try your hand at fishing or just enjoy being on the water.
As well as your deck, there are other little areas for sitting and enjoying the lakeside setting.
Shepherd's Delight is reached down your own little private track. A solar panel powers the lighting (there is no other source of electricity).
You are welcome to wander the owners' 60 acres of organic farmland (please take care with and keep your dog(s) on a lead around any livestock). This little stile takes you up to a lovely field.
Autumnal sunset on the lake - stunning.
Plenty of open farmland for you to explore (please keep your dog(s) on a lead around any livestock).
The National Trust estate at Killerton is just a bike ride away down the road - lovely walks, gardens, cafe, restaurant and shop.
Around 30 minutes away, Woodbury Common, an area of unspoilt heathland,offers miles of walks with the sea sparkling in the distance.
This is Sidmouth, a wonderful Regency seaside town around 40 minutes away.
The far end of the beach at Budleigh Salterton (just over 30 minutes away), where the River Otter joins the sea. The river, banks and reed beds are wonderful places for nesting birds.
Another view of the beach at Budleigh Salterton - you can follow the South West Coast Path from here.
Take it easy and enjoy the beach at Budleigh Salterton!
Why not venture a little further (around an hour's drive) to the sheltered harbour at Lyme Regis on the east Devon/Dorset border.
Another view along the beach at Lyme Regis - this is a great place for a day out.
