All to yourself

The Shepherd's Hut at Coombe Farm Glamping is only an hour or so from London and within easy reach of Goodwood, Cowdray and the south coast; yet once you're here, you'll feel as if you've stepped through the back of the wardrobe and into the ancient woodland that surrounds, unimpeded views towards the South Downs and barely another soul around. The hut stands alone in the field, so you will exclusively enjoy the tranquility the land has to offer. The Hut is equipped with fresh linen and towels, made extra cozy and warm with a beautiful flame and clean burning bio ethanol burner which creates a relaxed ambience, providing amazing heat for the chillier season stay. The wash area is compact with everything you will need for alfresco catering and dining, including a great camp compressor fridge. We also provide equipment to cook on the ample fire pit for an authentic camp experience. We have a revitalizing, hot and spacious shower, all run from our off grid system. We also provide luxury toiletries. Our loo is composting, extremely clean and freshly set up for every new guest and in keeping with our off grid, low-fi ethos. Our family farm, Durleigh Marsh Farm is in Rogate, 5 min drive from Rake or about an hours walk through the woodland south from the hut. The popular Tea room offers a great breakfast and lunch menu. Booking is advisable. Between the nearby traditional market towns of Petersfield and Haslemere you will discover a diverse choice of places to shop, dine and drink. The site is encompassed by beautiful walks and trails taking you further into the heart of the South Downs.The Shepherd's Hut is located in a beautiful field with stunning views, at the end of a lane of cottages and further into the woodland. You have the entire field to yourself. It is a lightly used Farm, we used to grow asparagus. We don't use that side of the farm much at all. So it really will be your space only, enjoy the peace.

Great place to stay, lovely view, feels tucked away but only 10m walk to pub for dinner and a few minutes in the car to amenities. Well thought out with everything you need for a comfy low-key break. Even posh toiletries in the shower! Recommended ☺️

Alice is an incredible host with impeccable communication. We had a great experience all round, the hut was clean, well equipped and very cosy. It is set in a stunning location which is both serene and secluded but still close enough to great restaurants and pubs. Highly recommended. Massive thank you Alice !

We had a lovely time at the shepherds hut- there is a wonderful wooded walk right nearby and we didn’t see another person our whole stay :) Super cosy bed too :)

With pets

Absolutely wonderful stay , connecting with nature once again ,just me and the dog, total privacy , well set up , fire pit , outside kitchen , benches and bean bags I never knew could be so comfy to enjoy outside , condiments were provided such as fresh strawberry's ,marshmallows ,eggs , extra fire wood if needed , toilet, shower and a very comfy accomation providing books with info on animals or creatures you might come across on your stay , a power source for changing equipment a surprisingly comfortable bed, I thought my own bed was the best untill I met this one , the night time setting is amazing , the moon hits just the right spot the stars were clear on all 3 nights I spent there and I wish I brang a telescope , Sarah is such a wonderful person, always in contact at pivotal moment's , even during working hours she helped me , I hope to stay again next month and every month for a couple days from now on ,absolutely nothing more i could of asked for , also anyone looking to escape the city life needs a stay out like this to be at one with yourself or your family or pets it's perfect .....I will say there was one bee that had a vengeance but we worked out our differences and had a great time together, I named him Berty the bee 🤣❤️

Such an awesome place! We loved every second of it! Very peaceful and quiet! Would 100% stay again! Close to most of the attractions of the South Downs. Cozy and clean and a great fire pit for roasted marshmallows (which were given for free! Along with eggs and strawberries, so awesome!)

Brilliant place to stay

We had a really lovely and relaxing stay. The hut is tucked away with a lot of privacy, situated in a very pretty area with great access to the forest. The outdoor kitchen, shower and toilet area were well equipped and clean. Sarah is also very responsive - highly recommend!
