    Unique accommodation. Perfect location for us to stay after a family wedding.

    The shepherds hut was spotlessly clean, cosy and well equipped. It is clear that a lot of thought had been given to creating a comfortable place for 2. The outside space was a bonus, private and a pleasant place to sit and also had a fire bowl for...

    From start to finish we were made to feel so welcome and everything was spotless and finished to a high standard. The firepit outside was a great way to finish the evening.

    Beautiful setting and unique accommodation. Close to the town to walk, but far enough away to benefit a good nights sleep and little to low road noise.

    The whole stay was wonderful from start to finish. Christine has thought of everything. We brought a little gas stove to cook kebabs on and finished them off over the fire pit, which was prepared for us. Highly recommend toasting smores under the...

    Loved everything about it. The hut is modern, very clean, and super cute. Amazing how they've managed to fit in a decent mini kitchen, as well as loo, shower, chair and double bed. There's also a tv on the wall at the end of the bed and a little...

The shepherds hut is in the heart of Newmarket stud lands, just minutes away from the town centre and the famous Newmarket racecourse, yet set in its own private garden. 15 minutes from Cambridge, with Ely and Bury St Edmunds only a short drive away. This is a great spot to explore the local area, visit the famous Tattersalls horse sales, enjoy a day/evening at the races or just totally chill out and relax. There are some amazing places to eat and drink locally with lots of choice for everyone.
The shepherds hut is situated in the heart of Newmarket Studlands, if you like horses you are in for a treat. The views are amazing, there is very little light pollution so the stars at night are pretty spectacular. It’s lovely to snuggle up on the outside sofa, enjoy a tipple keeping warm around the fire pit. During the day there are lots of things to see and do. Cycling is also great here with lots of beautiful rides and walks nearby.
