Our Show Hut – A story waiting for it’s next Chapter
Every hut we build has a story — and this one is especially dear to us.
Crafted with care, this Game Keeper’s Shepherd’s Hut first stood proudly at the Westmorland County Show and later charmed visitors at the Southport Flower Show. It wasn’t just a display — it became a talking point, a place where people stepped inside, paused, and imagined what life could be like within its oak-framed walls. Inside, it carries the warmth of solid oak flooring, bespoke joinery, and the soft calm of Farrow & Ball. By day, light pours in through the oak windows; by night, brass fittings and a Carron radiator create a glow that feels like home. Practical too, with a rock-and-roll bed, sheep wool insulation, and a full electrical package, it was designed for both beauty and comfort.
As our show model, it has been lightly used only for display, gathering not wear, but stories. Now it’s ready for a new chapter — perhaps as your guest retreat, garden office, or private hideaway.
This hut is a space that inspires, comforts, and welcomes. And as our showpiece, it is now offered at a special reduced rate — a rare chance to own something truly unique.
There is only one. When it’s gone, its story moves on.

Free Guide: Start a Glamping Business with Wells Shepherd Huts
Not just a hut – a place where life finally feels the way it was mean to.
When a Wells Shepherd Hut is finished and you step inside for the first time, there is a moment – quiet, still, unmistakeable – where something inside you says “yes… this is it.”
Not escape.
Not fantasy.
Arrival.
The feeling that you have finally come home to yourself – to a way of living that feels honest, grounded, and deeply yours.
That is what we build.
The timber, the craft, the joinery – these are just the means.
The real work is creating a place where life feels right again.
Built with care you can feel.
The way we build matters just as much as what we build.
Every Wells Shepherd Hut is created the way we would build our own – with decisions made for longevity, for honesty, and for the quiet satisfaction that come from doing things properly.
We don’t chase volume.
We chase rightness.
What do you get when you purchase a Wells Shepherd Hut?
- Highly skilled craftsmanship level joinery, not shed fabrication
- Timbers chosen for durability, long term aesthetics, not just how they look on day one
- Detailing that feels intentional, not decorative
- Materials purposely selected for each project, not because they’re cheap or fashionable
The feeling you get the moment you open the door. Word’s can’t describe what that is, it’s a feeling!
Where a Wells Shepherd’s Hut Belongs
A Wells Shepherd’s Hut is not a building you place; it is a space that settles into its surroundings – becoming part of the landscape and part of your life.
Some position their hut nestled in a garden, where it becomes a place to breathe, to read, to create, to be unhurried.
Others become guest retreats, vineyard tasting rooms, estate accommodation or quiet retreat for those who come to experience the land.
But whatever its purpose, the heart of it is the same – it becomes a place that gives something back.
How we Build
A Wells Shepherd’s Hut is made where nothing is ever ‘just good enough’.
Every joint is considered.
Every line is intentional.
Each decision is made as though the hut were our own.
There is no production line – only craft and presence.
You can see it in the details, but more importantly: you can feel it in the space when it’s finished.
This is how something built by hand becomes something that feels like it belongs.
Who We Build For:
We don’t build for everyone – and that’s intentional.
A Wells Shepherd’s Hut is for people who feel the pull toward a different pace of life.
People who aren’t looking for “a unit”, but for a place that changes how they live, host, breath and belong.
Some are private buyers creating a place of sanctuary.
Others are landowners shaping meaningful experiences for others.
Some are families building a legacy space.
Some are venues choosing soul instead of novelty.
But all of them share one thing:
They know this isn’t a purchase – it’s a turning point.
A moment where their life shifts from intent to arrival.
If that feeling resonates, you are who we build for.
Why customers love us and our Shepherd Huts
Trust, the way it used to be.
People don’t come to Wells Shepherd Huts because of marketing claims – they come because someone who already owns a Wells Shepherd’s Hut said,
“I have recently had a shepherd’s hut built by Wells Shepherds Huts, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, they were professional, communicative, and a pleasure to work with.
The team demonstrated real craftsmanship and expertise, taking the time to understand exactly what I wanted and offering helpful advice throughout the process. Their attention to detail was outstanding, and the final result is a beautifully built, high-quality hut that exceeded my expectations.
I was kept informed at every stage, and any questions I had were answered promptly and clearly. It’s rare to find a company that combines such skill, reliability, and genuine pride in their work.
I would highly recommend Wells Shepherd Huts to anyone looking for a bespoke, expertly made shepherd’s hut and a smooth, professional experience from start to finish”.
When you are ready to begin:
If something in this speaks to you – not as a purchase, but as a way of living – the next step is simply a conversation.
No showroom script.
No pressure.
Just space to explore what this hut could mean for your life, your land, or the people you welcome into it.
Because when a Wells Shepherd’s Hut arrives, it is never just the building that turns up – it’s the life you’ve been waiting for.
We don’t just craft shepherd huts – we are so much more
