Nestled away on the western fringes of the beautiful Dartmoor National Park sits StarBed Hideaways. Guests can enjoy a romantic break in the countryside, sleeping in a stylish, rustic and hand crafted pair of Shepherd Huts, with plenty of access to the great outdoors. Both huts offer spectacular views of the surrounding scenery, as well as chances for some great al fresco dining and romantic evenings under huge inky black, star filled skies. StarBed Hideaways offer guests luxury glamping in a picture-perfect setting.
The first hut, Aurora, sits perched on a rolling hillside, looking out over the ancient Buckland Abbey estate and onward across the valley of the River Tavy. The views from this spot must be seen to be believed. Halcyon, the second of the two huts, is a true hidden gem. Tucked away beneath a beech copse on the side of a pretty hill, this spot offers a secluded romantic getaway.
Both huts offer pure luxury from super comfy King-size beds to giant deep bathtubs - the perfect spot for a relaxing soak after a day out exploring this gorgeous part of Devon. Both have quaint kitchens where you can prepare some delicious locally sourced food, before stepping outside to enjoy a meal and a glass of wine as the sun begins to set. And as night draws in, get comfy in bed and gaze up through the glass ceiling at the night’s sky.
As well as there being a fully stocked larder with essentials as well as treats you can also order from the incredible menu and enjoy a range of delicious home cooked meals. If you wish to venture further afield you'll be pleased to hear that there are 2 pubs within walking distance and an array of lovely restaurants nearby. Guests can also head out and explore Dartmoor in all of its glory, or perhaps just spend the day at a nearby spa enjoying some relaxation. Other things to do in the area include falconry, hot air balloon rides, and more. Or explore the fabulous Dartmoor Artisan trail through many of the idyllic villages and towns nearby.

Leave a reviewAurora by name. Aurora Borealis by nature. How lucky were we to hit the jackpot by staying at this gem of a hideaway and also getting the unique opportunity of witnessing the Northern Lights make an unexpected and once-in-a-lifetime display of memorising extravaganza on the first night of our stay. Absolutely wowza! I think even without the appearance of the Northern Lights, my wife and I would still have afforded this place a five star rating. On our arrival we were greeted by the warm welcome of Bertie, our friendly host, and his daughter who took us from our meeting point to Aurora in an army transport vehicle. The ride to the top of the hillside was memorable as it was fun and exciting. As we arrived I was struck by the beauty of Aurora and its majestic panoramic view and breathtaking surroundings. The interior of porta cabin was cozy and spacious with all the essentials for a weekend getaway. If you are looking for an adventure without the daily distraction then look no further. Aurora will give you an experience you will treasure and fondly reminisce. Thank you Bertie, Bryony and their daughter for an unforgettable stay.
