Welcome to Shepherd's Rest our soulful hideaway in the Cornish countryside.
The location is nothing short of a dream.
Every detail has been carefully handcrafted.
We love the rustic barbecue hut. Cook up a storm and enjoy dining lakeside.
The kitchen is fully fitted and beautifully finished.
Situated perfectly within nature's paradise. Dogs even have their own mini shepherd's hut kennel, and are also welcomed inside the main hut.
On cooler days get cosy by the wood burner.
The spacious interior is just as stunning as the setting.
The Hypnos king-size bed offers a blissful night's sleep. With two windows looking out over the meadow, ponds and countryside beyond.
Wake up and enjoy those gorgeous views.
The internal ensuite shower room has everything you need to freshen up.
The shower is a great size!
Shepherd's Rest looking gorgeous in the golden light.
Magical moments await.
Just look at this location. An absolute dream!
Take breakfast outside and immerse your mind, body and soul into this peaceful paradise from dawn till dusk.
As the evening draws in you can light the chiminea or head down to the brilliant barbecue hut, just across the pond.
Romantic evenings await.
What's on the menu tonight?
It really is is a really hidden treasure.
Picturesque countryside views from every angle.
The view from the field behind the hut looks into Lerryn village.
You are welcome to bring four-legged friends along for the adventure.
They can even sleep in their own mini shepherd's hut kennel but are also welcomed inside the main hut.
The only neighbours you need to worry about are the friendly sheep!
And gorgeous ducks!
You might even spot the odd kingfisher. Picture taken by the lovely owners.
Take in those breathtakingly beautiful, sunset skies by the warmth of the fire.
A bird's eye view looking down at Shepherd's Rest with the village of Lerryn in the background.
Just a short stroll will bring you into the village of Lerryn itself with a traditional village store selling delicious homemade cakes and a great selection of gins too!
There is a great pub too all within a five to ten minute stroll.
Such a beautiful village to wander through.
The stepping stones appear at low tide.
The ancient stone bridge in the village.
Fowey isn't far and has an array of waterside eateries. Wander around the shops and galleries or join a boat trip.
Discover sheltered bays and beaches along this stunning stretch of coastline.
Take a trip to Lanhydrock (NT) with its grand house and beautiful gardens and hire a bike to explore the network of cycle trails.
Your Cornish adventure awaits.

An amazing location. So quiet and so much space. Enjoyed the nightly visits by the local bats around the lakes.

Shepherds hut was the most perfect place I have stayed. If you want complete relaxation this is the place to be as there is no WiFi so all you can do is read, watch the wildlife and relax on the loungers. Shepherds hut has everything you need for a really comfortable stay. The surrounding area is nice and the costal walks are amazing. I would highly recommend this place for a getaway. I will certainly be back. ...

Can't recommend this property highly enough. We had such a wonderful time in this magical location. Lerryn is so beautiful, yet quiet and unspoilt. Shepherds Rest itself is such a tranquil place - some of our best moments were when we simply did nothing but enjoy the views and the wildlife. We'll be returning!...

Shepherds Rest is a special place to be. Communication with hosts is excellent and we were made to feel very welcome. The hut is well designed, equipped with everything you could need and the barbecue hut is a super added bonus. The location is very peaceful and quiet, lovely to be so close to nature. There’s many beautiful local walks for days without the car, the guidebooks in the hut were really useful. We had a fabulous stay and unreservedly recommend the Shepherds Hut. ...
