General
- Shepherd's hut stays on an equine farm in a gloriously green setting
- A 10-minute drive to Southwell and half an hour to Nottingham
- Bedding included and ensuite; easy access to walking and biking paths
Fancy holidaying in a hut with horses all around? Canter along to Oxton Hill Hideaway on an 80-acre equine farm in the Nottinghamshire countryside, with well-equipped glamping units amid 70 acres of mowed paths for riding (or hiking and cycling).
Those who want to bring their horse along on the hol can do so (for an extra charge) thanks to the secure wooden paddock and stables. The site’s also got a 20x40 sand school with jumps and miles worth of circular hacking on bridlepaths to and from pubs, the River Trent and nearby villages like Epperstone and Thurgarton (both less than 15 minutes’ drive). Lots of small cross-country jumps are around the farm, and Brackenhurst – where equestrian events from dressage to showjumping are held – is 10 minutes away.
Not got a horse? This hilltop park’s also topnotch for peaceful country stays among the free-roaming ducks and chickens, with views out across the vale of Belvoir. Sit outside in a private fenced-off garden with a cuppa made in your kitchenette; each hutsalso includes an ensuite, a woodburning stove, an alfresco dining area and a gas barbecue plus handy extras like toiletries, tea, coffee and breakfast bits.
Off site, venture to villages like Hallam and Oxton (less than 10 minutes’ drive) or saunter around the historic 10th-century minster town at Southwell (10 minutes’ drive) as well as its shops and cafés. To swap bridleway hacks for woodland walks amid age-old pines, Sherwood Forest – that of Robin Hood fame – is also 25 minutes away.
