This is a lovely place to get away from it all, it really is secluded, the shepherds hut is comfortable and cosy and the separate building that houses the kitchen, shower and toilet is made of everything reclaimed, it’s quant and quirky, but at the same time is clean and has everything you need, the owner really has thought of everything. The fire pit is fab, evenings spent sitting round the fire toasting marshmallows were perfect. This was our second visit and we will return.

The Shepherd’s Hut at Coombe Farm is only an hour or so from London and within easy reach of Goodwood, Cowdray and the south coast; yet once you’re here, you’ll feel as if you’ve stepped through the back of the wardrobe. With its unimpeded views over the South Downs countryside and barely another soul to be seen, this is a magical place to hole up, step off the treadmill, dream, write, and recuperate. Access is via a private lane and there’s parking on-site. At the top, backing on to beautiful deciduous woodland, you’ll find the Hut itself –equipped with a super-comfortable bed, log burner and simple, pretty furniture, including a table/desk. There’s a mezzanine bunk to accommodate one child. Outside, there’s a table and two chairs for a sundowner, a firepit, and a picnic table. A few metres away, just beyond the wildflowers, you’ll find a well-equipped kitchen, shower and loo, all made using quirky reclaimed materials wherever possible, and with a selection of luxury toiletries. There’s hot water on demand, a gas stove and butler’s sink, there is one 12v socket in the hut for charging phones (please bring your car charger) solar-powered lighting.
The access to Coombe Farm is via a private lane, please drive carefully and consider our lovely neighbours. The lane is bumpy and goes into woodland. It is not recommended to bring a sports car or any low vehicle.
