The hut itself features electric underfloor heating to keep your toes toasty. There's a comfy bed with twinkling ceiling lights above for that romantic mood (wink wink). The kitchenette includes an induction hob, microwave and fridge with freezer compartment. The walk-in shower is proper decent too.
Visit Belvoir Castle (nearby), Burghley House (worth the drive), National Trust's Belton House (gorgeous gardens), or Woolsthorpe Manor (Newton's birthplace). Nottingham and Grantham offer day trips with plenty of shopping and eating options.
Herbie's Shepherds Hut at Shepherds Lodge is perfect for couples wanting to escape. The summer house called "The Duck Inn" offers extra space with hammocks, seating and a bar area. It's brilliant.
