The Shire Houses

“Our family of four stayed for a long weekend and didn't want to leave. The living-edge worktops, the firepit, the wildflower roof — every detail is beautiful. The children loved feeding the alpacas in the morning.”

“Possibly the most unique place we have ever stayed. It feels rustic and luxurious at the same time — log beams, underfloor heating, fur throws on the bed and total silence at night. Magical.”

“We booked the Shire House for my wife's 40th and were blown away. The welcome hamper, the fire pit ready to light, the bottle of fizz waiting — Chris and the team go above and beyond.”

“A genuine slice of countryside escapism. The interior is gorgeous — handcrafted, full of texture, and so cosy with the gas fire going. We've already booked again for autumn.”

“If you've ever dreamed of staying somewhere truly different, book the Shire House. We woke to mist over the meadows, soaked in the hot tub at dusk, and ate breakfast in the round-doored kitchen. Perfection.”
