Explore
Harvest Hut is sublimely located for exploring the best that south Devon has to offer, from coast to countryside. The closest town is Totnes, a lovely place to visit for independent shopping and foodie delights. The Bull Inn serves fresh produce with an ever changing seasonal menu, whilst The Hairy Barista is a firm favourite for wholesome lunches and soul-soothing coffee. There’s a busting weekly market on Fridays and Saturdays, so you can pick up some local produce to enjoy back at your hideaway. Hop on the combined riverboat and steam railway trip between Totnes and Dartmouth, and admire the gorgeous scenery along the way. The lovely village of Dittisham sits on the west bank of the River Dart, here you can get the Greenway Ferry across the river to the Greenway Quay, where you can visit the former home of writer Agatha Christie. It’s now owned by the National Trust and boasts idyllic views across the gardens and river. Whilst on this side of the river, why not head to the quaint village of Stoke Gabriel; embrace a day of watersports or fishing, before grabbing a bite to eat at The River Shack.
At Harvest Hut, you’re also within reaching distance of Dartmoor National Park, so pack your walking boots and get ready for an adventure. You’ll never tire of exploring its rich history, rare wildlife and mesmerising wild swimming spots, and you’re spoilt for choice of country pubs, The Rugglestone Inn being a firm favourite! For more unbeatable scenery, the South Hams Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is just a stone’s throw in the other direction leading all the way to the south coast. Here, you’ll find the wonderful beaches of Bigbury Bay, Bantham, South Sands, Blackpool Sands, Soar Mill Cove and Slapton. And finally the National Trust properties of Saltram House, Overbecks, Cotehele and Buckland Abbey are all worth a visit! This wonderful corner of south Devon is just the spot to retreat to, and what’s better than returning from a day full of adventure to a luxurious hideaway with a steamy wood-fired hot tub… bliss!

We had such a magical time at Harvest Hut, total peace and quiet with far reaching views over the big rolling Devon countryside. We loved watching the birds and hearing their song, and star gazing in the hot tub. Really spacious too.
Highly recommend

Absolutely beautiful stay, this is the first time we have done a stay of ‘glamping’ and it was everything we have been searching for. The hot tub for sunset and star gazing is a must.. beautiful pubs near by with lovely food! We will be returning in the future.

We had a wonderful stay at the Harvest Hut. It was extremely comfortable and spacious with great facilities. The bed was the best we’ve slept on in any Shepherd hut! The hot tub was a lovely addition and was very quick to heat for a woodfire tub. It was a perk to have a gas bbq on the terrace and an oven and hob inside the hut which made eating at and enjoying the hut really easy.
Lovely views and a great location with both Dartmouth and Totnes a short drive away, as well as lots of other beautiful places to visit.
The recommendations book created by the hosts was really handy and we even tried the top recommended restaurant ‘the oyster shack’ which was amazing!!

The hut is incredibly spacious and has everything you need! We loved chilling in the hot tub whilst admiring the beautiful views. The wood burner kept us super cosy on cooler nights. This place is perfect for finding peace and tranquility but with great amenities a short drive away.

A brilliant stay in Devon with very easy access (10 min drive) to the beach and into Dartmouth. Plenty to do in the local area and then return back to a log fired hot tub and fire pit with stunning views and more than enough privacy. Definitely recommend to anyone seeking a few days of peace and quiet.

We were surprised how spacious it was inside too.

We had a wonderful time in a truly beautiful location. We live locally but we could have been anywhere in the UK. It was so peaceful and such a treat to wake up to such a glorious view.
The log burner made for very cosy mornings, but the hut stayed warm all day with the sun favouring us on our short break. Our pup loved laying in th sun that poured through the French doors onto the fluffy rug!
Great amenities, divine bed and seriously comfy sofa. It's the best laid out shepherds hut I've come across, designed with small living and minimalism in mind, but also comfort - so many just have wooden chairs with cushions for sitting. We were also surprised by how much bigger the inside was than expected.
Outdoors was equally lovely - beautiful decking and a fabulous hot tub that our lovely hosts heated ahead of our arrival. Tricky to work out the next day when you've never lit a fire but instructions are provided and the hosts are minutes away and very helpful. We spent half our time outside bird watching, enjoying the quiet and playing with our daxie who loved his first holiday.
Only minor issue was that we hadn't realized that horse riding lessons take place directly behind the hut as this isn't shown in the photos. For an adults only location we hadn't expected to hear a handful of screaming kids running around when we had planned on using the hot tub that evening. It only lasted an hour and a half or so but we had come to get away from that at home. Wouldn't put us off coming again - the hut blocks more sound than expected inside too - but it's useful to know if that is something that would taint a trip for you.
The safari tent next door was also not in use so enjoyed the space to ourselves. All in all, we won't hesitate to come back...I'm already looking for next year, or even a 2024 winter break.

Perfect location, secluded yet easy to get to Totnes. Cleaned and decorated to a high standard. Bed was extremely comfortable, slept like a baby! Hot tub was a bit hard to get the temp right. Would recommend The Harvest Hut to couples looking for a restful Devon retreat.

We really enjoyed our stay at the harvest hut. It was thoughtfully decorated and equipped which made the stay comfortable and at ease. The hot tub is easy to use, heats quickly and retains well which meant you could use the next day without re-heating. Stargazing around the fire pit and alfresco dinner was lovely from the gas bbq!
