  • "We had such a lovely stay at Two Moors Shepherd Hut!"

    The owners had gone out of their way to provide a bottle to celebrate mine and my boyfriends Anniversary, as well as helping us with the hot tub when we had a slight issue (completely on us) - very accommodating and friendly! The location was lovely for walks, pub food and views. Such a cosy and wholesome weekend and would highly recommend for anyone looking for a romantic and peaceful getaway!

    Thank you Zöe. We’re very happy to hear that you enjoyed your anniversary stay. Property Owner

    It was honestly the best holiday we’ve had with our dogs and it’s in such a beautiful part of the country. There is so many nice places to eat and walk to, my only regret was not staying another night!

The property

Nestled amongst the scenic Devon countryside in the hamlet of Hittisleight, is this lovely, single-storey shepherds hut, Two Moors Shepherds Hut.

Beautifully positioned within a meadow setting, rich with wild flowers and birdsong. Keen walkers will be delighted to discover that the property is located right on the Two Moors Way - Devon's coast to coast route.

Benefitting from a studio-style layout with woodburning stove, dog-friendly accommodation and a wood-fired hot tub, Two Moors Shepherds Hut welcomes two guests, ideal for a couple seeking a romantic escape in this pretty corner of Devon.

After parking up and unloading your belongings (yes, this shepherds hut even has a wardrobe), rustle up a tasty dish in the neat kitchenette; venture outside and relax in your very own private outdoor space, soaking in the rural views and toasting to a wonderful break over a cold glass of fizz, as your pooch plays safely.

Spend your evening alfresco, sharing stories or playing games and take a dip in the hot tub, the perfect way to soothe your tired legs after a long day of sightseeing!

When the stars appear overhead, escape back inside to enjoy a blissful shower and transform the dining space into a plush double bed, ready to curl up and doze off into a relaxing slumber.

If you can tear yourself away, visit the nearby St Andrew’s Church, a historic building known for its beautiful architecture and serene surroundings, or simply lace up your walking boots and head out on one of several footpaths and trails to discover your location on foot.

Close by, the village of Whiddon Down offers a convenience store and pub. While a short car journey will bring you to the pretty town of Chagford: an appealing moorland town offering a variety of eateries and independent shops, an open-air swimming pool (seasonal opening times) and plentiful walks to work off a pub lunch!

Travelling further on, the moorland village of Belstone can be reached within 15 minutes featuring a friendly pub and tea room and easy access to the tors, trails and far-reaching views of spectacular Dartmoor.

Tour Castle Drogo, a remarkable National Trust property, take a trip to Fingle Bridge, a picturesque spot on the River Teign perfect for a romantic picnic, or discover the in-depth history of iron working at Finch Foundry, a fascinating 19th century water-powered forge.

Further afield, make the most of all that Exeter has to offer, including Exeter Cathedral, the Royal Albert Memorial Museum and Art Gallery and Northernhay Gardens.

Enjoy a romantic getaway in Devon, with a stay at Two Moors Shepherds Hut.
