A newly converted, immaculate shepherd’s hut set in its own private field beside The Royal Oak in Gretton — a peaceful hillside retreat for two with wide valley views, a kingsize bed, log burner and quiet, considered interiors. It’s a refined hideaway for couples wanting calm countryside living with easy access to the Cotswolds.
Overbury Shepherd Hut is warm, simple and beautifully arranged, with soft linens, natural textures and far-reaching views from the kingsize bed. The open-plan living space includes a compact kitchenette with cast-iron cookware, fridge, Nespresso machine and dining nook, anchored by a log burner for cooler days. The walk-in shower room is finished with clean, elegant detailing and stocked with Wild England toiletries, with underfloor heating providing year-round comfort.
The hut sits in its own private field at the top of the hill, with uninterrupted views across the Vale of Evesham. A firepit makes slow evenings outside easy, and the setting feels secluded while only steps from the pub. The space is simple, natural and quiet, ideal for unhurried mornings and peaceful sunsets.
Situated beside The Royal Oak in Gretton, the hut has access to the pub’s tennis and pickleball courts and sits close to walking routes towards Winchcombe, Broadway, Cleeve Hill and the Cotswold Way. Cheltenham, Daylesford and wider Cotswold villages are all within comfortable reach.

The Cotswolds is one of England’s most picturesque regions, celebrated for its honey-stone villages, rolling hills, and timeless charm. Spanning several counties, it’s an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty where winding lanes lead to historic market towns, ancient churches, and cosy country pubs.
From elegant towns like Stow-on-the-Wold and Burford to the peaceful meadows around Chipping Campden and Broadway, the Cotswolds offers a perfect mix of heritage and tranquillity. Days can be spent exploring stately homes, wandering through flower-filled gardens, or walking the scenic Cotswold Way.
Local life moves at a gentler pace here, shaped by centuries of craftsmanship, agriculture, and tradition. Visitors can browse independent boutiques, sample seasonal produce at farm shops, or join local festivals that celebrate everything from food to music and the arts. Whether you’re enjoying a lazy afternoon tea, cycling between hilltop villages, or visiting renowned landmarks like Blenheim Palace, the Cotswolds promises an authentic and memorable taste of the English countryside.
