Winter has a way of softening the world. The fields take on a gentle hush, the air turns crisp, and the evenings stretch out like an invitation to slow down. For those who relish calm, comfort and a touch of seasonal adventure, Pippin, our charming Shepherd’s Hut, is the perfect winter hideaway.
A Haven in the Chill
Inside Pippin, the world feels wonderfully far away. Timber walls, soft lighting and the warmth of the log burner create a cocoon of cosiness. Outside, the countryside whispers with winter stillness; inside, you can curl up with a blanket, a book and the soothing crackle of firewood.
Star-Gazing Season
Winter skies in Devon are spectacular—clear, crisp and full of glittering stars. With almost no light pollution at Bowhayes, you can stand outside your hut, hot drink in hand, and gaze into a night sky that feels impossibly vast. It’s peaceful, grounding, and a little bit magical.
Wine, Firepits & Warm Hands
The ground may be soft and the air might nip at your cheeks, but that’s part of the charm. Light the firepit, pour a glass of something warming, and settle under a blanket as sparks drift upwards into the dark. Winter glamping is all about contrast: cool air, hot flames, and that glorious feeling of being wrapped up against the elements.
Local Winter Wonders
