The Dragonfly Shepherds Hut

Beautifully decorated inside the hut and spotless, also clean & well maintained outside. The facilities e.g. hot tub, fire pit, hammock etc were an amazing touch and really made our stay special! The views were great too, and perfectly peaceful. An amazing location, 15 minutes from Clacton sea front! & the host was so friendly and welcoming, would definitely recommend & we will be booking again! (In slightly cooler weather haha!)

We went on a super hot weekend (28° all weekend), so the hut was unbearable to sleep in. The fan was just blowing hot air at us, and we couldn’t open any windows/doors due to the bugs. I’d say we both got maybe 3/4 hours sleep per night & my boyfriend even slept in the outside hammock both nights because you could barely breathe inside with the heat. A window was left open before we arrived so the hut was also full of nats (nothing bug spray couldnt handle when we bought some, but we didn’t notice this until late into our first night, so got bitten alive!). I also would say more fairy lights / lighting in general outside was needed. Once the sun went in other than the area covered by the hut lights, it was pitch black, more fairy lights would make it super pretty after sunset!

Location

Ideal location to near by towns, peaceful, had everything we needed.

It was in a nice location, great views overlooking open fileds.

Beautiful location and a perfect place to relax.
