1 / 20Bodcott - Pembridge
Pembridge, Herefordshire
A stylish shepherd's hut for two near Pembridge on Herefordshire's Black and White Trail, with a sauna, a heated summer house, enclosed grounds by an apple orchard and one small dog welcome.
Dark skies, a fire pit and a sauna of its own: Bodcott is a stylish shepherd's hut in the Herefordshire countryside near the pretty village of Pembridge, set on the Black and White Trail. Couples who love life outdoors will adore this dog friendly hut, and one small dog is welcome to share it.
The hut sits within enclosed grounds with views onto an apple orchard. Wooden steps lead up to stable front doors, and inside the open plan space is finished to a high standard with touches of luxury throughout: a well equipped kitchen, a comfortable seating area with a table and chairs for dining, and a built in king size bed for a peaceful night's rest. A spacious shower room sits at the far side. It is a warm, well finished space, and a small dog settles into it happily.
Opposite the hut is a detached, heated summer house with comfortable seating, its double doors opening onto the grounds, where the dog can doze in the afternoon sun. A detached sauna offers the perfect way to unwind after a day exploring, and in front of the hut the fire pit takes centre stage for cooking and toasting marshmallows under the stars. Come December, the hut is decorated for Christmas.
Walkers have waymarked trails from the door, ideal for a dog, and cyclists a network of country lanes. Pembridge is 2 miles away, with several good pubs and restaurants, a gallery and a village store, and Dunkerton's Cider shop comes highly recommended. Leominster is famed for its antique shops, the National Trust's Berrington Hall is within reach, and the gardens at Hampton Court Castle open from spring to autumn.

Is Bodcott - Pembridge dog friendly?
Yes, Bodcott welcomes dogs — but with one clear condition: one small dog only. The hut has an enclosed garden and a dedicated outdoor enclosure for your dog, so a smaller breed will be comfortable and well catered for here.
Are dogs allowed at Bodcott - Pembridge year round?
The listing doesn't specify any seasonal restrictions on dogs, so it's worth contacting the owners directly to confirm availability for your dates. What we can say is that the setup — a fire pit, an electric sauna, and a heated sun room — makes this a place that works well outside of summer too.
What should I know before visiting Bodcott - Pembridge with my dog?
The owners are straightforward about the one small dog rule, and it's worth taking seriously — a shepherd's hut, however well equipped, has limits on space, and this one is designed for two people and a dog of a certain size. On the plus side, your dog gets an enclosed garden, their own outdoor enclosure, and open ground up at Croft Ambrey hillfort 3.7 miles north if they need a proper run.
