Alton, Hampshire, England
A shepherd's hut set within a walled garden on a 9 acre smallholding on the outskirts of Alton, Hampshire. The interior is cleverly designed so the space can switch between a dining setup and a seating area by the wood burner. A wood-fired hot tub is available to hire separately. Alton Towers is a five minute drive, with some rides visible through the woodland from the property.
The smallholding has friendly animals to visit and walking trails that run through Dimmingsdale and into Alton village. At £106 a night with 273 reviews and a 4.96 rating, this is a well priced and well proven option for the area. The walled garden setting gives it a character that most shepherd's hut stays lack.
The walled garden location is what elevates this above standard shepherd's hut fare. It adds a sense of enclosure and history that open field settings simply cannot match.
Many guests reported a relaxing getaway with visits to Alton Towers, enjoying a serene atmosphere and praising the welcoming, helpful hosts. A highly recommended stay for couples seeking relaxation.
