🌿 The Burrow Shepherd’s Hut at Reddings Retreat

A little extra space, all the charm

Settle into the larger of our two shepherd’s huts and enjoy a little extra room without losing any of the rustic character. Hand‑crafted, fully insulated, and tucked into its own peaceful corner of the paddock, The Burrow is the perfect hideaway for a countryside escape or romantic break at any time of year.

Nestled in Reddings Paddock on our working farm in Tintern, you’ll be surrounded by the beauty of the Wye Valley — a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). From your door, it’s a short walk to Tintern Abbey, welcoming pubs (most serving meals), coffee shops, and local attractions. Chepstow and the Welsh–English border are only a short drive away.

💬 “Charlotte had great local recommendations and fast responses. Robert was lovely, friendly, welcoming and has great local knowledge.”
