They say the best things come in little packages, and that’s certainly true of this delightful Shepherd’s Hut, nestled in Raglan in the Monmouthshire countryside. Perfect for a quiet romantic retreat, here, you can completely immerse yourself in nature and go back to basics – although the charming decor inside this home is anything but basic. With everything you need for a comfortable stay and a welcoming bed to snuggle up in at the end of a day exploring the local area, this is a little Welsh gem. Light the barbecue in summer and enjoy an alfresco meal as the glorious green views stretch out before you. As day sinks into night, with no light pollution spoiling the view you can sit out under a blanket of stars, a glass of wine in hand, listening to the local owl uttering the occasional hoot to break the stillness of the night. In colder months, with underfloor heating warming your toes and the log burner casting a soft glow into your hut, you can stay wrapped in the cosy warmth of your home and enjoy the silence that surrounds you. This truly is a home for all seasons.
