Nestled in the heart of the beautiful Kent countryside, The Foxy Shepherd is a cosy retreat perfect for couples looking for a romantic getaway. This surprisingly spacious shepherd's hut packs in a modern kitchen, luxury shower and even a traditional wood-burner, making it the ideal setting for a peaceful break. Neatly tucked away, guests benefit from the surrounding green fields and woodland, as well as a private outdoor area for enjoying a breakfast out in the sunshine.
The Foxy Shepherd's interiors have been tastefully designed to blend the traditional country feel with a modern twist. A comfy double bed with storage beneath it makes excellent use of the space, while the modern kitchen has just what guests need to prepare simple meals and snacks. The bathroom is home to a luxury rainfall shower, WC and sink and is in a separate room within the hut. The integrated log-burner can be used to keep the hut nice and toasty in the winter months, and in the summer, guests can make use of the barbecue / fire pit in the outside seating area. The hut is enclosed thanks to a high hedge and natural screening, ensuring privacy while being out in the fresh air.
The Foxy Shepherd is based on an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and boasts stunning views across the paddocks to Benenden, In the local area, there is plenty to explore, including numerous vineyards producing some of England's finest wines, as well as historic castles and properties and wonderful public gardens. Slightly further afield, but still within easy access is the gorgeous East Sussex coast and the famous town of Rye, with its cobbled streets, boutiques and cafe culture. Beach lovers will be astonished at the beauty of Camber Sands, offering seemingly endless golden sands and twinkling blue sea to dip in on a hot, summer's day.

What a lovely place! We spent 2 nights in the Foxy Shepard. Cathy kept us informed the whole time and was very quick with responses to queries. The directions were great and very specific so we didn't get lost! Checking in and out was very very easy. The hut is very spacious, clean and tidy. It had everything we could need for a short stay. The bathroom was also an ideal size. The bed was lovely, warm and soooo comfy! We loved waking up to the views of the paddocks in the morning. The homemade brownies on arrival were perfect! They were gone within seconds. Cathy had lit the fire for us prior to our arrival so the hut was lovely and warm for when we arrived late evening. We was able to relight the fire with no problems throughout our stay. Looking forward to booking again for the summer and we are recommending the place for everyone!

We had such a lovely time at the foxy shepherd! The hut was completely spotless and decorated to such a high standard. Beautiful views and in a great location. The freshly baked cookies on arrival was an added bonus too! There’s so much to do nearby and we had a lovely meal in one of the local pubs. Wish we could have stayed longer!
