Welcome to Goodlife Shepherd’s Huts, these traditional huts are making something of a comeback and provide a unique experience of outdoor living with all of the mod cons and comfort of a modern home.

Perfect as a rural retreat located in the heart of the countryside or equally at home in a back garden for use as an office or studio or children’s playhouse. If you have ever needed to escape the stresses of modern day living or needed more living space with lots of traditional charm and character then you will welcome the experience that a shepherd’s hut can provide.


We are a small family business based in the heart of rural England on the Herefordshire/ Worcestershire border and we have a love for traditional craftsmanship and an obsession for quality that is not only seen on the outside but is also under the skin.

We bring all of these values together when we hand craft one of our Shepherd’s Huts using traditional build methods and quality materials.
