Summary:  
  
Escape to the charming Dipple Farm Shepherds Hut, a delightful retreat nestled in the picturesque village of Woolfardisworthy. This unique retreat offers a cosy and romantic getaway for those seeking tranquillity. Enjoy the comforts of a double bed, a private bathroom, and amenities such as a BBQ grill and indoor fireplace, perfect for a relaxing stay. Surrounded by the beauty of rural Devon, you'll find yourself immersed in nature, with opportunities for cycling and exploring the local area.  
  
The Space:  
  
Tucked away in a private field and surrounded by nature’s finest rivers, trees, and wildlife, Dipple Farm Shepherds Hut offers a truly unique and tranquil getaway. This charming retreat is the perfect place to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and immerse yourself in the peace and beauty of rural Devon.  
  
Just a five-minute walk through the on-site woodland brings you to the river – ideal for a refreshing dip, a quiet moment of birdwatching, or simply soaking up the serenity. The entire site is blissfully remote, offering uninterrupted calm and a real sense of escape.  
  
Back at the hut, cosy up beside a crackling fire or sit outdoors and enjoy the sights and sounds of the countryside. You’ll spot sheep, cows, and horses grazing in the surrounding fields, and if you’re lucky, you might catch a glimpse of otters in the river, owls in flight, or deer wandering through at dusk.  
  
When night falls, gaze up at the star-filled sky – a breathtaking display unspoiled by city lights. What's more, Dipple Farm Shepherds Hut also has fishing rights on the river Torridge that runs through the private land - a nice feature.   
  
Whether you're looking for a rustic romantic hideaway or a peaceful solo retreat, Dipple Farm Shepherds Hut invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and embrace the wild beauty of Devon.  
  
There is also access to a fenced four-acre field, free to access to any guests staying at Dipple Farm Shepherds Hut. There is also access to a further 15 acres of flower meadow, rivers and woodland. This is ideal for letting your dog run around.

Such a nice and peaceful place! The Sheperds hut has everything you need and was immaculately clean, well organized and as beautiful inside as outside. The stars were amazing as there are no lights nearby. I loved my stay!
