Bee Happy

Wem 4.5 miles.

Bee Happy is a charming shepherd’s hut set near Wem in Shropshire, resting beside a canal with open countryside views and offering a laid-back escape for couples or friends.

Arrive at the marina and park in the designated car park before making your way along the cinder and slate path, where the canal gradually comes into view and the meadow setting reveals a small row of huts, with this one positioned towards the end to enjoy uninterrupted outlooks across the landscape.

Its green exterior blends into the natural surroundings, while the open frontage towards the canal creates a sense of space from the outset.

Step up onto the veranda, where astro turf cushions each step and camping chairs provide a place to sit and take in the waterside scene before heading indoors.

Open the stable door and step into a light and airy interior, where wooden flooring adds a welcoming touch beneath your feet and leads through the open-plan layout, with a double bed set neatly to one side for unwinding after a day out, while the drop-leaf dining table with stacking chairs offers a practical spot to dine or plan the next outing.

The kitchenette is arranged within easy reach, allowing for simple meal preparation or a warm drink, while the oil-filled heater brings a gentle warmth as the evening draws in, making the space comfortable for cooking, dining, and relaxing.

When it’s time to freshen up, take a short walk across the site to the shared facilities, where a walk-in wet room provides a straightforward place to begin or end the day, supported by additional bathrooms if needed, while the outdoor tap and water container cater for daily use in keeping with the simple nature of the stay.

Step back outside and enjoy the surroundings, where the lawn and terrace extend towards the canal, offering space to gather at the picnic bench for an easy meal before lighting the fire pit and watching the evening settle beneath open skies.

A shop can be reached with a short drive, while a pub sits slightly further afield for those looking to dine out.

Alternatively enjoy the delights of the on-site café, open 7 days a week.

Bee Happy offers a relaxed canal-side stay in the Shropshire countryside.
