Shepherd Huts in Kent
We are excited to offer a bespoke shepherd hut design and build service in South East Kent.
We can scratch build traditional huts to suit your space and lifestyle suitable for a garden office, studio, or perhaps an extra bedroom.
The huts are built using traditional materials, English oak chassis and cast iron wheels and running gear.
Our huts are built to order one at a time.
