The Parlour at Greenacres is a lovely, completely self-contained luxury Shepherd Hut, built by Blackdown Shepherd Huts. Located on the edge of the Peak District in the Staffordshire Moorlands, it comes with a fully-fitted kitchen, en-suite shower and toilet, and a full-sized double bed and dining area. There’s a radio too (but there’s no TV or WiFi) You won’t miss them with so much beautiful countryside around you to explore.

It’s a chance to get off-grid and leave your hectic life behind for a few days. Watch the sun setting or the cows go up for evening milking. Cook dinner on your Indian kadai firebowl and keep warm sitting around it as the evening cools. Listen to the dawn chorus in the morning while you wake up after a good night’s sleep, then enjoy your coffee and a proper Staffordshire breakfast on your terrace.
