About this property

Located within the grounds of Stepney Hill Farm, on the outskirts of Scarborough, is Shepherd's Hut, a cosy shepherd's hut offering studio-style accommodation for two, surrounded by countryside and distant sea views, making this a perfect couple's retreat for anyone wanting to enjoy a peaceful location, close to the North Yorkshire coast. This compact, wood-panelled property offers a good-sized double bed, a small dining area, in front of a cosy woodburner and a small kitchen with an electric oven and hob, plus a microwave and a fridge, so you'll have everything you need for a self-catering holiday. Outside there is an external building next to the hut containing a shower and WC, that is strictly for guests of Shepherd's Hut only, and there is a picnic bench at the side of the property, should you wish to dine alfresco. Note: This property can be booked with Ref. 1075625, together sleeping four guests.

Popular since Victorian times, the seaside town of Scarborough offers two superb sandy beaches, separated by the Medieval castle that sits on the headland, overlooking the sea.
