General
- Comfortable shepherd's hut in a quiet location on a small farm
- On the edge of Milton Abbas, 30 minutes' drive from Poole Harbour
- Self-contained unit with a shower room, kitchenette and gas barbecue
Park Farm in Dorset has a well-built shepherd's hut in a green agricultural landscape on the edge of the village of Milton Abbas. This well-maintained hut, which dates back to the 1920s, has been restored over the years to become the comfy unit it is today.
The self-contained accommodation here is furnished with essentials like a sleeping area, a kitchenette and a separate shower room. There's also a logburning stove to keep you toasty in the evening, plus a gas-fired barbecue where you can cook out of doors on a covered decking area.
In adjoining fields you'll see horses and sheep quietly grazing, while a short stroll away there's a woodland at the bottom of the fields for quiet tours of the grounds. All of this can be admired from the spacious outdoor decking area, a top spot for relaxing with a cup of tea and admiring far-reaching views, which on clear days extend all the way down to Poole Harbour (30 minutes' drive) and the Isle of Wight.
Park Farm is about three quarters of a mile from The Hambro Arms, the village pub. Milton Abbas also has a post office and a farm shop for supplies.
