We’re based near Exeter, in a little village called Kenn, at the bottom of Telegraph Hill, just off the A38. We are ideally located as a stop gap on your way to or from Cornwall, as we are just 0.8 miles from the M5/A30/A38 interchange, so super easily accessible via car.
If you’re travelling by train, we’re 5 miles from Exeter St David’s train station.
For air travellers, we’re just under 9 miles from Exeter Airport.
Our shepherd huts are each set in their own plots and are completely private. Each comes with it’s own proper electric hot tub and fire pit.
The Airstream is also set in its own private location, has a gorgeous wood fired hot tub, fire pit and outdoor Ooni pizza oven.

The hut will be ready and waiting for you to arrive any time after 3:00 pm. Late arrivals are not a problem for us, so if you are coming a little later just let us know and we’ll make sure everything’s ready for your arrival time.
On the day of departure, we ask that you are all packed up by 10:00 am.
When you book, you will get a confirmation email which will tell you about what to bring and directions on how to get here.
Nearer to the date, you will also get an email confirming the key code to get into your hut or Airstream.
Please note that the Shepherd Huts have 4 steps leading up to the door and the nature of the accommodation means that it may not be fully wheelchair accessible.
Please call us for further details and we can talk through your access requirements.
We are happy to take up to 2 small dogs in Cherry Blossom and Apple Blossom. We supply blankets, welcome treats and towels for their comfort.
Of course! We’re all about escaping our busy lives and our solo travellers enjoy all the luxuries that the shepherd huts have to offer, along with the retreat-like peace and quiet. You can be totally secure in the knowledge that we’re around to help, if needed.
