What's included in my stay? (Towels, Wood & more)

We will provide you with fine Egyptian cotton bed linen for your stay; we have even provided you with a simple dry larder supply that includes West Country Tea bags, sugar and sometimes even a pint of milk ready in the fridge for your arrival.

If you feel like lighting Len’s wood burning stove (or fire pit), you don’t need to worry about wood, kindling or fire starters. They are included, so there’s no need to purchase them from a roadside garage late at night (please use responsibly).

Stepping into the bathroom for the first time you will also find large fluffy towels, shower gel, and fresh toilet tissue. Everything one needs to make the stay perfectly perfect is provided as standard.

Is there a minimum stay?

Our preferred minimum stay is 3 nights (bank holidays & summer) and 2 nights during the rest of the year.

The minimum stay depends on when you arrive, as you really do need 3 nights to fully appreciate the glamping experience.

Our Reviews

We have lost count how many times we have stayed here now!

What we haven’t lost is how beautiful and peaceful it is. Phil & Amanada attention to detail has been A++ consistent every time. This weekend we have visited Hartley’s kitchen (best breakfast!) We went on the ESR steam train visited the Mendip hills picked up supplies up from Torners Farm shop visited Priddy where you can go to Deer leap and sit on a bench and see some breath-taking views, had a lovey meal in the queen Victoria friendly traditional pub. Our most favourite part always though is the hot tub at night looking at the stars at night and listing to all the birds we will be back again.

We have had a wonderful time. Blissfully relaxing and, well that’s it really – blissful. The bed was comfortable and waking up to that view with the deer quietly grazing was very special. No grand meal in any restaurant or pub could match the pleasure of a simple baked potato cooked on an open fire. You have made it a wonderful celebration of our 30 years of marriage.

“Since we booked this holiday we have been counting down the days. The expectation was surpassed by Len! We have done so much in our time here but most of all we have relaxed and enjoyed the peace. Cooked steaks in the fire pit, watched deer in ‘our’ field and listened to the owls around us. Lit the stove and cooked (windows & doors open) and constantly found new things hidden away. Thank you Phil & making us so welcome.”

Len’s History

Len the Shepherds Hut is named after Phil’s grandfather, a farmer in whose field Len and Ted are situated.

Phil recognised that some of us are reluctant to give up the modern creature comforts we take for granted – so he carefully designed Len the Shepherds Hut to include everything you could wish for, from an en-suite shower and flushing toilet to electric central heating and fitted kitchen, a luxury comfy mattress supplied with all the bed linen and duvet, to the DAB radio, Wi-Fi, TV, DVD player and mood lighting (we also provide a small hairdryer too!)

It was a true labour of love that then resulted in Len, a uniquely handmade Shepherd’s Hut. A charming recreation of pastoral bliss, yet with all the features you’d expect in a five star luxury apartment.
