Monkwood Shepherd’s Hut, located in Worcester, Worcestershire, is a charming glamping accommodation designed for couples seeking a unique getaway. This luxurious shepherd’s hut, measuring 23 feet in length and 9 feet in width, is the newest addition to Ockeridge’s collection of rural retreats. Named after the nearby Monkwood, a semi-natural ancient woodland noted for its diverse flora and butterfly species, Monkwood offers an idyllic setting for a relaxing staycation amidst stunning views of the open countryside. Guests can enjoy the serene landscape, including the sight of horses grazing nearby, all while disconnecting from the hustle and bustle of daily life, as the hut is intentionally free of Wi-Fi to encourage a focus on the present moment.
The hut is crafted with care, featuring eco-friendly materials such as natural Douglas Fir and sturdy Oak, complemented by lamb’s wool insulation for comfort. The rustic charm is enhanced by exposed Oak roof beams, while modern furnishings add a stylish touch. Couples can cozy up in front of the traditional log burner, preparing romantic meals in the fully equipped kitchen, which includes a quartz countertop and a Belfast sink. Dining options range from a snug table with quirky bench seating to a more casual setup on the sofa, allowing for a variety of dining experiences during their stay.
Monkwood also boasts a private bathroom that features a WC, wash basin with an illuminated mirror, and a luxurious handmade bathtub. The highlight is the William Holland roll-top copper bath, perfect for a relaxing soak after a day of exploration. After unwinding, guests can retreat to the comfortable king-sized bed located in a cozy corner of the hut, which includes ample storage and an integrated TV for entertainment. This intimate setting is ideal for celebrating special occasions such as honeymoons, anniversaries, or simply enjoying quality time together in a peaceful environment.
Situated in a rural area of Worcester, the lodge is close to local landmarks like the Tudor House and Commandery, as well as attractions such as West Midland Safari Park and Danter's Treasure Island Amusement Park. For those interested in local events, Worcestershire County Cricket Club and the Regent Centre offer entertainment options. Guests are encouraged to take advantage of the stunning dark skies for stargazing, making a wish upon any shooting stars they might encounter. Overall, Monkwood Shepherd’s Hut provides a memorable escape for couples looking to reconnect and enjoy the beauty of the Heart of England.
