Price Points: Shepherd’s huts

Shepherds huts

Ever since we moved to Wales, we’ve thought that one day we’d like to put a shepherd’s hut in the garden. It would be used as a summer house and as accommodation when friends and family come to stay over.

Shepherd’s huts come in all manner of shapes, materials, colours, options and budgets. Some can only be described as a garden shed on wheels. Others are so high spec that they boast as many mod-cons as an upscale holiday cottage.

We’ve picked out three options, costing from less than £5K to almost £40K. Of course, we’d love to be able to afford something with the latter price tag. We first came across this model’s manufacturer, Plank Bridge, on the Wriggly Tin Shepherd’s Huts’ Instagram feed.

There’s one hut in particular on the Wriggly Tin Glamping site that I fell in love with – Barrow – with its buttercup yellow interior and exterior and vintage décor. We don’t have the cash to purchase one of these luxury shepherd’s huts, but we could perhaps stay in one for a long weekend!
