Buddy is a quirky shepherd's hut lodge in rural Leicestershire where you can escape the digital world. This cosy wooden cabin sits in peaceful countryside with stunning views across rolling fields and a serene lake. Perfect for couples who want to switch off completely. And yes, your dogs are welcome too - Buddy accommodates up to two four-legged companions!
The setting is properly secluded. You'll be surrounded by farmland with sheep and cows as your neighbours.
