Shepherd's Hut vacation rentals in Northamptonshire

Beautiful slice of countryside just moments away from the centre of Oxford. Extremely well stocked kitchen with everything you need for a short stay, plus complementary breakfast croissants and milk! Very clean, cozy and comfy.

We loved our stay at Greengage Hut! Lower Nill Farm is beautiful and the location is great, with lots to do and great walks in the local area. Johnathan and Jenny were super responsive hosts and really helpful, especially with the hot tub and bbq! Their place is the perfect for a weekend getaway, and the hut has everything you could need, we felt right at home and couldn't recommend it more! Thank you for a lovely stay!

Overall, accommodation was great and everything went well. Things that I would like to point out. List of amenities these things are not correct. 1. Carbon monoxide alarm for the fireplace. The bedroom is not operational which is a hazard. 2. Coffee machine was not there. We asked and we were kindly given a jar instant coffee. 3. Outdoor to dining area doesn't exist. there is ourdoor furniture but not a dining area. 4. Outdoor kitchen doesn't exist either. They are correct, there is a BBQ as mentioned on the amenities , but that is not a outdoor kitchen. 5. I understand there is no Wi-Fi available. Which would I was okay with as I have 50GB of data. What I was not aware is that the location is in a virtually a signal dead zone there was one spot that we had to go to , if we wanted to receive our Whats-App messages. I would see this as an important thing to mention to people. Lastly , we had the lovely couple who lived at the corner who were available when we needed to ask questions.

Brilliant place for a chilled getaway for the night. Loved the hot tub and meeting all the animals. Would definitely recommend to others. Lynden was also a great host who was very helpful and made sure we had the best time!

Perfect for our short stay in Milton Keynes, hut was lovely and was nice to have some tea and biscuit provisions. Easy check in and a beautiful area to be set up at. Hut is right next to the farm house and store. Fortunately we had no noise from either. Overall very pleased, only slight issue was that the bathroom fan wasn't working (or we couldn't work out how to turn it on) so it got very humid in there, some signs of mould but could be related to the fan so I'm sure will get fixed soon.

Our stay at Lower Nill was so lovely! The hut is so well equipped, very cosy with some lovely touches. We really enjoyed the wood fire hot tub and the pizza oven! Jonathan and Jenny were both so helpful, helped us get the pizza oven going and the hot tub and were just generally really lovely! The farm is really quiet, nice to walk around. Slightly chilly time of year but we managed to get that winter sun one day, and with a coat and the fire pit going it’s lovely!!

Very close to, just 15 minutes, but out of the sprawl of Oxford; in beautiful farmland with fabulous walks and charming pubs, rivers for dipping into. Beautifully decorated space with everything one needs, quietly located in the corner of a field. Really comfortable bed with cushions, perfect place to read, with good light and a window. Recommend local-ish Mason Arms for relaxed coffee and papers. Good shower and thoughtful makeup mirrors in communal bathroom. Very quick response (booked hours before!) and kind and welcoming welcome.

We had a wonderful stay at the shepherd’s hut. It offers everything for a relaxing weekend away from the city. From the stunning scenery to the sweet local village, we highly recommend this to anyone. The hosts were warm and welcoming and gave us plenty of recommendations. There are loads of lovely food options nearby, as well as lovely nature walks to the nearby village of olney. The hot tub was well worth it! We hope to be back soon.

The place was lovely and clean. The area was very peaceful and beautiful surroundings. The outdoor bath was very relaxing in the evening. Had a lovely stay.

Lovely little cabin in the woods, we had a great stay here over New Year. Milan was very helpful and came to see if we needed anything, although we didn't as the cabin is comfortable and well stocked already. We would certainly come again!

It is bigger than you think with more than enough space for me and two children. We will definitely be back for some more peaceful nights away.

We had the most amazing three-night glamping stay at Elliott’s Rectory Farm’s Shepherd’s Hut! It was the perfect mix of peaceful countryside vibes and cozy comfort. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely relaxed. The farm, once a working dairy for generations, is a beautiful, quiet retreat in rolling fields with the sounds of nature. It really felt like stepping away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The Hut was fantastic—charming, warm, and thoughtfully designed. The wood-burning stove was a lifesaver on the chilly February nites, made it feel extra cozy and the bed sooo comfy. A few steps away, a private bath and shower were super modern and spotless, a nice surprise for a glamping setup. In the evenings, we sat outside by the fire cauldron with a warm drink, watching the stars and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere. The perfect way to end each day. It is a relaxing escape that captures the charm of the English countryside. Dreaming of our next stay!

Lovely shepherds hut in a beautiful location with private garden. Merriscourt Team were very helpful and responsive and the hut had all amenities for an overnight stay while attending local festival.

We had such a lovely, peaceful time! The hut was gorgeous (with the wood burner making it extra cosy!) and a great location for getting to the racecourse. We also took a jar of honey home, and it was really delicious. Thank you so much for a relaxing stay!

Peaceful stay and beautiful views

Great weekend at Rams Retreat. Very clean with lovely extra welcome surprises. Had a great stay.

Ruth gave me all of the information in a timely manner before our stay, she even included some videos of the more complex things we needed to know which was very helpful. The Shepherds hut itself was very clean, organised and had the basics included. There was leaflets regarding local places of interest to visit as well as local pubs and restaurants. We did have a couple of questions during our stay which Ruth answered quickly. The location is extremely peaceful and a great place to go to relax and wind down, but also has lots to do within a short distance. We would recommend this for anyone who wants to relax or who like to go and visit places.

We had a lovely weekend break away at Bryony’s place, the shepherds hut was exactly as it is in the photos, clean, cosy and a big comfortable bed! We contacted Bryony for advice regarding taxis and she was very helpful and replied straight away. The booklet of information left by the hosts was very useful. I will definitely be returning and couldn’t recommend it enough for a nice relaxing calm and cosy break!

We had a lovely peaceful stay here for our birthday! The bath took a bit of working out to get the right temperature but we were lovely and warm in the end despite it being 1°c outside - thankfully there were bathrobes for us to use which was perfect! The canal and a little shop are literally 2min walk from the hut and we went to a nice pub just down the road (the admiral nelson) - you can either walk down the road or the canal to get there. Our dogs loved the paddock and cosy fire 🔥 Thank you so much 😊

We absolutely loved staying in the Shepherd’s hut for a sunny spring weekend. Everything was as described and well kitted out. The location is dreamy and loved waking up to the sheep outside our window each morning. We had breakfast in the cafe on site and did a few local walks which were excellent. Would thoroughly recommend and would love to return

We had the best time. The location was absolutely amazing, so beautiful and remote, and also very near to lots of beautiful towns and villages! There is also a lovely farm shop and cafe round the corner. The sunset you can see from the Shepherd's hut is also stunning. The accommodation itself was everything we wanted - cosy, warm and clean. Thank you Leslie for a great stay!

We had a lovely stay here for the night. The area is absolutely beautiful and was so relaxing watching the sun set by the water. The cabin is clean and has everything you’d need for a short stay. We will definitely be back!

This was my second stay and I was really happy to return. Everything was great and I enjoyed a moonlit evening in the hot tub, which Ruth had kindly prepared for me. I highly recommend utilising Ruth’s skill and knowledge of the tub. I had a relaxing hassle free evening which I would never have had if I’d attempted heating the hot tub myself! Thank you Ruth!
