All about Lincolnshire Shepherd Huts

A DEDICATED FAMILY-RUN BUSINESS IN THE HEART OF LINCOLNSHIRE

Hello and welcome to our website

We’re Jamie and Karly, a husband and wife team who founded our business in 2018. Everything we do comes straight from the heart. What began as a passion project has grown into a thriving family business.

Inspired by our two young daughters, we always dreamed of creating something that would allow us to spend more time together—and now, they’re an integral part of our journey.

Since launching Lincolnshire Shepherd Huts, we’ve expanded to include our very own glamping site, nestled in the beautiful countryside of Lincolnshire. It’s a peaceful and picturesque spot where potential customers can enjoy a “try before you buy” experience—spending the night in one of our fully equipped shepherd huts, complete with ensuite bathrooms, kitchens, wood burners, and more.

The site has been a huge success, not only giving guests a chance to truly experience the comfort and quality of our huts, but also helping us connect with clients on a more personal level. Whether it’s a romantic getaway, a family retreat, or simply inspiration for a future project, our glamping site offers a real taste of what life in one of our huts can be like.

The people behind Lincolnshire Shepherd Huts

HI I'M Jamie.

"I have over 20 years carpentry experience, learning all there is to know from my father Piers, helping him build things in the workshop from the age of four. Being creative and designing just comes naturally. I’m always willing to try something new. I love making ideas a reality. Off-grid living is a passion Karly and I have always shared, and this was how Lincolnshire Shepherd Huts was born."

HI I'M Karly.

"I have a strong background in design and marketing. Im responsible for managing your complete hut build, from start to finish. I’ll ensure all your requirements are met and every detail is accounted for. I get the fun part, helping you choose your colour schemes, fixtures and fittings and of course the intricate, personal details that make your hut your own."

Beautiful Lincolnshire

We are based in the heart of Lincolnshire offering an abundance of natural resources for us to use while making our Shepherd Huts. Lincolnshire is a beautiful and varied county with a bright future and a fascinating past. It’s also one of the largest in England, stretching almost 100 miles from the magnificent Humber Bridge in the north to Georgian Stamford in the south. Lincolnshire is imbued with history, dating back to before the arrival of the Roman Empire.

Lincolnshire is truly one of the nation’s best kept secrets, and we’re proud of our heritage and committed to spreading the word about our great county. If you’re not familiar with what Lincolnshire has to offer, we thoroughly recommend a visit.

A brief history of Shepherd’s Huts

The shepherd’s hut has been used since the 15th century, primarily in the UK and France, for sheep raising and lambing. Use of shepherd’s huts by farmers reached a peak in the late 19th century and dwindled in the 20th century with the advent of mechanised farm machinery and electric power reaching even remote farms.

The shepherd’s hut was a kitchen, dining room, bedroom, sitting room and storeroom all rolled into one. They provided the shepherd with practical and durable accommodation. The old huts had a stove in one corner for warmth and cooking, and a window on each side so the shepherd could see the flock. A hinged stable door, which was always positioned away from the prevailing wind, enabled him to hear the flock, and strong axles with cast iron wheels were used to withstand the constant movement from field to field.

Luxury living tailored just for you…

We are both so passionate about our work and creating designs that really pay homage to the historic origins of the Shepherds Hut. We listen to exactly what you want and offer you a bespoke design package tailored just for you and allow you to oversee the build throughout. Our mission is your mission!
