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 compact yet well-equipped kitchenette area offers a two-ring hob, a microwave, kettle, sink, storage cupboards and pot rack with plates, bowls, mugs, cutlery and kitchen utensils.
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.
The double bed with a comfortable Milly mattress at the end of the hut. Additional storage is available under the bed if required.
The bathroom comprises a walk-in shower, loo and basin, plus an electrically heated towel rail.
There is an outdoor cupboard for storing outdoor boots, wellingtons and coats - ideal if you have wet gear.
