About this property

Scalderskew Shepherds Hut - Situated on a Lakeland Fell Farm

Scalderskew Shepherds Hut is a modern hut with underfloor heating and plumbed-in facilities, situated in a quiet space on a traditional working hill farm in the stunningly-beautiful Western Lake District.

The elevated position of the farm enables you to benefit from the fabulous views of Caw Fell, Haycock, Seat Allan and the top of the Wasdale Screes in the next valley. The views are simply breathtaking!

"We, at Herdwick Cottages, absolutely LOVED the views, and the drive up the fell, through the thick woodland is just fab!"

For a peaceful getaway, this Lake District Shepherds Hut is your perfect escape.

Accommodation Summary
Enter the Hut from your own private balcony into the open-plan living, seating and kitchen area, toasty warm thanks to the underfloor heating.

The living area offers a two-seat sofa plus a small foldaway table. Outside, on the balcony, is an additional seating area, perfect for chilling with a glass of wine while taking in the views, or perhaps alfresco dining.
