Shepherds Lodge Retreat & Wellness - Bonnie’s Shepherd Hut

Bonnie's Shepherd Hut is a one-bedroom retreat within Shepherds Lodge Retreat & Wellness, near Melton in the Vale of Belvoir. It suits couples seeking quiet countryside time away from children under 12, who are not permitted here. The hut is yours alone, with private parking for two cars and exclusive use of a wood-fired hot tub.

Inside, the open-plan space combines a living area with woodburner, dining corner and compact kitchen equipped for self-catering—a two-ring hob, microwave and fridge handle everyday cooking. The bedroom holds a double bed with a window onto the grounds. An en-suite shower room and underfloor heating throughout keep you comfortable in any season. Bed linen and towels come as standard, along with initial fuel for the woodburner and a welcome pack.

The real draw is outside: your own patio with garden furniture and barbecue sits by the lake, with a firepit for evening use. The grounds also include a summerhouse and additional seating areas shared with other properties on-site. The retreat offers optional massage and holistic therapy services if you want to go beyond simple relaxation. The setting overlooks rolling countryside with distant views toward Belvoir Castle.
