The Hamlet at Samlesbury Hall

In the grounds of historic Samlesbury Hall sits a gathering of colourful huts, Samlesbury Hall Shepherd's Hut Hamlet, a rustic and carefree alternative to your traditional hotel room.

Just as luxurious but with a rural edge, the hamlet is home to a collection of beautiful shepherd's huts, hand crafted to keep you toasty in winter and cool in the summer.  Complete with two double beds in European oak, the huts boast all those little extras - memory foam mattresses, low-wattage electricity to keep your phone charged, as well as a cosy en-suite.  The bathroom includes a spacious shower, hot water and soft towels, along with luxury toiletries.  The huts are heated and well lit, including a camping lantern to add a rustic touch to your stay (and to light a moonlit walk).  Escape is easy with a walk through the grounds of the picturesque Samlesbury Hall. 

Chairs and tables can be taken outside to relax around the fire-pit, or take a seat at one of the picnic benches and enjoy your supper.  If you're looking to explore a little, you can take the kids to the adventure trail and Mayflower playground, hidden in the woodland in the grounds of the Hall, or to the mini golf course by the hamlet entrance.  If the Hall's open, it's completely free to visit, don't miss the sweet treats in Dottie's Wafflery, and the award winning restaurant open for lunches only serves the finest ingredients.

The huts sleep up to four people and are available all year round.  Breakfast, lunch and afternoon tea can be enjoyed in the Garden Room Eatery from Tuesday to Sunday.  Pre-booking is recommended.
