About Shepherd's Hut at North Farm Cottages

This tranquil Norfolk farm offers a single shepherd's hut tucked away in peaceful countryside, yet convenient for Norwich and the Broads. The pitch comes with its own barbecue and fire pit, plus there's fishing on site and cycle hire if you fancy exploring the network of quiet lanes that radiate from the doorstep. A games room and drying facilities add practical comfort, while the farm setting means you're likely to wake to birdsong rather than traffic.

It's very much a remote, back-to-basics experience—the shepherd's hut is cosy but simple, and some visitors note the facilities can feel a touch tired in places. That said, walkers and cyclists appreciate the spectacular scenery and easy access to canoeing, horse riding and farm-fresh produce nearby. If you're after a genuinely peaceful escape with plenty of outdoor pursuits on tap, this tiny site delivers.

Amazing find, we spend a couple of relaxing nights here. The place is immaculate and has everything you need for a break. The showers/ loos are what you would find at a high end hotel and the shepherds hut is spacious and charming. You have the entire field to yourselves so dog owners can relax. I can't praise here enough we will go back.

Absolutely stunning location and perfect little getaway hideaway. Everything we needed for a one night stay. Lovely welcome basket which we enjoyed, cleanliness was absolutely tip top and bed extremely comfortable. Bathroom facilities again everything you could need, the little touches are what make a stay perfect and this had them in abundance 💕 would definitely come back (maybe when it's a bit warmer) we did put the log burner on which heated the hut up beautifully.

Enjoyed a lovely overnight stay in unique accomodation. Spotlessly clean and peaceful with separate shower and toilet block. Set in it's own private paddock and ideal for dogs to run around without worrying. Friendly welcoming hosts provided nice little touches like charcoal for the BBQ. Would love to stay again in the future. Great location for Cromer and Overstrand beaches.

We have stayed in a few shepherds huts the last few years and this is up there with the best. The hut is simple, just enough for a comfy night. That's it's charm, you have to chill and look at the scenery. The bathroom and shower are separate, a few steps away, but it's not a problem. Anyone who camps won't care it's what you are used to. The welcome was lovely and the little touches made it a must to return to when we can stay a couple more nights. Don't change anything, it's perfect how it is.
