Shepherds Retreat

Cleobury Mortimer 3.8 miles. Shepherds Retreat is a delightful shepherd's hut enjoying the countryside on its doorstep on the southern edge of the Shropshire Hills AONB, in Hopton Bank near Cleobury Mortimer. Ideal for a couple who want to escape the hustle and bustle of life, the hut enjoys unbeatable, panoramic views covering 40 miles of countryside, towns, villages and on a clear day you can even spot Birmingham! Be greeted by the wild orchid field on arrival, before parking up in the off-road space. Venture inside via the steps of the hut's timber-clad studio-style accommodation. Kick back and relax on one of the plush armchairs as you savour a glass of wine and watch TV; all the while the electric fire warms your toes! When you're feeling peckish, make your way to the kitchen, a compact but stylish and practical space, thanks to its LED lighting and range of appliances available. Once you've fixed up a delicious meal, open out the folding table and chairs and enjoy a meal for two by the fire, or take the meal out to the decking and tuck in amidst those gorgeous views. When night falls, retreat to the double, a bespoke bed with a reconditioned 1930s bed frame, and enjoy a well-earned rest. In the morning, freshen up in the shower room, a space enjoying a walk-in shower and the lovely touch of an illuminated mirror.
