There is much about the history of the shepherd hut. These huts have been used for hundreds of years, by shepherds, allowing the shepherd to be protected from the elements whilst tending his flock during lambing seasons.

The hut was one big simple space with a stove for cooking and warmth and a bed for the night. Windows allowed the shepherd to keep an eye on his sheep, and a stable door, allowed him to hear them. Today shepherd huts are very desirable as tiny houses, chill-out zones, glamping
