Please note: The property has a natural water supply from a borehole.. Little Oak is perfectly positioned in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with uninterrupted sea views from the front and green rolling hills to the rear. This shepherd’s hut, surrounded by fields of cows and sheep, is individually hand crafted and bespoke-built using Siberian larch wood. Whilst boasting traditional features such as a curved roof, internal and external wood cladding, and spindle wheels, it has been designed with comfort and style in mind. Not to mention being incredibly spacious too!
The kitchen has been hand built locally and finished with a solid wood worktop, and tucked in at the end is a breakfast bar with bar stools. Comfy seating fits snugly in beside the wood burner and there is also Wi-Fi. A Smart television is wall mounted above the breakfast bar and French doors open out onto an enclosed veranda, perfect for watching the sun set over Wigtown bay and later for gazing up at the stars. The bedroom, although cosy, fits a king size bed with feature headboard and wall lamps and beautiful views of the hills can be seen from the window. There is also ample storage for luggage and bags under the bed. The bathroom is spacious containing a toilet, sink and shower cubicle.
Situated 5 miles from Gatehouse of Fleet and a 5-minute drive from sandy beaches, Little Oak sits on the edge of the UK’s first Dark Sky Park as well as being within a short distance of the Southwest 300 route.

The location was lovely and easy to find with the instructions provided, the huts are really spaciou
The location was lovely and easy to find with the instructions provided, the huts are really spacious and perfect for a little break alone. It was really clean and had everything you'd need, including tea/coffee and milk which was much appreciated after a long drive! I'd highly recommend it and am already looking at dates for next year.
