Stunning Lakeside Shepherd's Hut - Hot Tub & Sauna

Helions Bumpstead, Essex

Stunning shepherd's hut in a beautiful lakeside location. Set at the back of a working farm & equestrian centre the hut is well-appointed with modern decor. Visitors will have the use of the hut, stunning firepit & BBQ next to the hut. A stunning wood-fired hot tub is available for a small fee (£25) & there is a sauna. The lake is surrounded by fencing making the site secure & very private. Visitors are welcome to fish the lake (See details below) & there are facilities to bring a horse along too.

The hut is set alongside a 2-acre carp lake, dug in 2018. Stocked with 100 hand-selected mirrors and commons up to 25lb, which are growing fast! The current estimate is that 1/3 stock is over 20lb and most of the fish have never been caught! The fishing is not easy by any means, but the results are worthwhile! Horse owners can bring along their horse for an additional fee. There is a dedicated paddock within view of the hut and the yard has a stunning private 5k cross-country track. Access to the site is via the main yard, which houses a farm, equestrian facilities and some commercial premises, including the owner's other interest The Firepit Company. The lake site is secluded from the hustle and bustle of the main farm, set amongst the paddocks. There are just three shepherd's huts in the lake site, making this very secluded.

The site is located in Castle Camps, about 10 minutes from Haverhill. Cambridge City Centre is a 25-minute drive with all of its facilities and attractions. There is plenty to do locally whatever your interests. There are plenty of wonderful local pubs and farm cafés nearby, which we are happy to point you in the direction of. Full details are in the welcome pack as you arrive. This is a rural location there, so there are no public transport facilities nearby. The local town is a short drive or pleasant cycle away, as is Cambridge. There are a wide range of local footpaths and green lanes, should this take your fancy.

Located in Haverhill, this lodge is on a lake. Clare Ancient House Museum and Walden Castle Keep are local landmarks, and the area's natural beauty can be seen at The Common and Bridge End Gardens. Fishing offers a great chance to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with hiking/biking trails, cycling, and horse riding nearby.
