Solitaire At South View

Enjoy peaceful mornings and cosy evenings in this charming retreat for two, a purpose-built shepherd’s hut with warm, welcoming interiors. The open-aspect surroundings of the Fenlands offer plenty of options for outdoor excursions, and the flat landscapes make it an ideal destination for bike rides or walks that aren’t too taxing.

Explore Holme Fen National Nature Reserve (7.5 miles) for its network of silver birch woodland and fantastic birdlife, or visit the wetlands of Ramsey Nature Reserve (1 mile), even closer to home. Take a day trip to the beautiful cathedral city of Ely (24 miles), a historic destination with wonderful architecture, quality shops and a selection of pubs and eateries along the river.

A unique day out can be enjoyed at Johnson's of Old Hurst (8.5 miles), a zoo with a wide selection of animals and an award-winning farm shop. Make your way into the private garden to find this rustic retreat perched in one corner.

Take a few steps up and into the studio-style accommodation, where a lounge, kitchenette, bedroom and dining area are all combined into one inviting space. At the centre of the room, a wood burner adds a warm, cosy glow to evenings spent here, best enjoyed from the comfort of your king-size bed.

The bed is tucked against one side of the property, with a window offering lovely views. The kitchenette is compact yet well-equipped, with everything you need to prepare breakfast or a picnic for the day.

Next to the main living space, an en-suite bathroom features full plumbing with a shower unit and WC – welcome creature comforts that elevate this glamping experience. During summer stays, make the very most of the beautiful surrounding garden.

This enclosed space features a covered seating area with a fire pit and BBQ, along with a private hot tub that’s best enjoyed under a dark, starry sky. Private parking is also available for one car.
