A luxuriously cosy shepherds hut in the Trossachs

Welcome

Sitting in the far corner of the field at Keepers Cottage, the Poachers Hut is a hand-built 7m Shepherds Hut with its very own hot tub, wood fired pizza oven, large fire pit and BBQ. The shepherds hut has mains water and electricity, en-suite with shower and flushing toilet, planet friendly shampoo and shower gel. It is fully insulated, has a comfortable double bed with quality mattress, bedding and soft furnishings, a small kitchen, a cute wood burner with wood and kindling supplied, comfy seats and small table. There is a smart TV with Netflix, Alexa, WIFI and heating, and the hut has a small fridge, microwave, toaster, electric saute pan, kettle and Nespresso coffee machine.

You will find a generous welcome hamper (enough for breakfast) including fresh eggs from our hens and some home-made produce. The ‘always ready’ hot tub with massage jets is the perfect place to relax.  Wood and charcoal for the fire pit/BBQ is provided along with toasting forks and popcorn pan. You will also find towels and flip flops for the hot tub. There is a selection of coffee, tea (incl decaf), condiments, marshmallows (incl veg), popcorn etc.

 We are in big sky country and with no noise or light pollution, cloud and star gazing is magical here, especially from the hut tub or around the fire pit in the comfortable whisky barrel chairs wrapped in cosy blankets (with a dram perhaps!).   And you can cook delicious pizzas in the wood fired pizza oven. 

The Poachers Hut is a special boutique-hotel style outdoor retreat in the stunning Trossachs, luxury glamping at its best. 

Perfect for mini-moons and a stay makes a wonderful gift. 

We look forward to welcoming you.

We felt right at home at the Poachers Hut. Right from the start Lorna and Ray where there to meet us on arrival and help us settle in. It was everything we could have hoped for to have a short break with the idea of doing walks in the area so this place was perfect to relax.It was lovely meeting Lorna and Ray and was lovely speaking to them. They were so helpful and on hand to answer questions and offer recommendations.We ordered pancakes for breakfast in the morning which we cooked outside which made the experience even better. It was delicious.All the little touches around the place with drinks and hamper provided, the amenities and facilities which included the hot tub, pizza oven and firepit have just made this an experience never to forget. Hope to come back again one day.

We had a wonderful stay at The Poachers Hut. Lorna and Ray made us feel so welcome and had really thought of absolutely everything we might need during our stay. On arrival they met us and spent time having a wee chat, introducing us to their animals, and showing us around; offering advice on things to do/ visit in the area. They were around if we ever needed them but left us to it and respected our privacy. The Welcome Hamper was full of lovely treats and felt really special as we'd been asked our preferences for it. The other wee personal touches throughout our 2-night stay were really lovely too and made us feel right at home. The Hut inside was so cosy, well-appointed and had everything (and more!) we needed for a relaxing break. Outdoors was a really special space, the garden is amazing surrounded by fields, trees and wildlife. We loved sitting by the firepit, star-gazing, making pizzas, and enjoying the hot tub. We definitely hope to return soon, thank you for an amazing stay!

I can’t recommend this place enough! Me and my partner have tried a few places similar, however Lorna’s poachers hut stood out way above the rest. The attention to detail in the hut shows just how much this means to her and her husband. The facilities are amazing and the hamper you receive upon arrival is very generous. Lorna was always on hand to help in any way. The animals around the place just make it that but more special aswell. We will definitely be back, absolutely amazing. Thank you Lorna and Ray.

This is a little slice of heaven in the Scottish countryside which is not to be missed. Lorna and Ray have clearly put their hearts and souls in to every corner. There are thoughtful touches everywhere and no shortage of ways to relax and enjoy the surroundings. We hope to return in the near future!

We had the most beautiful weekend away staying at the Poachers Hut! The hut was very clean and well equipped. Such a great space to relax, using the hot tub, toasting marshmallows on the fire and make yummy pizzas in the pizza oven! Lorna is a fantastic host! Thank you again! We can’t wait to come back 😊

Lorna was a lovely host - she had really thought about all the little details which made our stay very dreamy and enjoyable! Lorna provided recommendations which we took advantage of. The Poacher's Hut was extremely tidy, cosy and had everything we needed. We felt right at home and couldn't of asked for a better stay (unless we had stayed an extra night!) We have recommended to our friends and family.

What can we say! We had a wonderful couple of days at the Poachers Hut. We loved all the personalized touches and really wish we could stay longer or return (unfortunately for us we live in Australia) heh! The hut is beautiful, and so are the surroundings. It was quiet and peaceful and private and was lovely to get to meet the goats and cats. We actually came here for our elopment and couldn’t have chosen a more perfect spot. Thank you Lorna and ray for your generous hospitality. We will be recommending you to all.

We were warmly welcomed by Ray and shown around the beautiful space available to us. The attention to detail is second to none.We enjoyed 2 very relaxing nights at the property as a special treat for our wedding anniversary. We went to Nick Nairn’s restaurant at Lake of Menteith for a 5 course tasting lunch with paired wines, which we would highly recommend - it’s walkable within 45 minutes. Every element of our stay was 5 🌟

This was our third stay at the Poacher’s Hut. I couldn’t thank Lorna and Ray enough for always making our stay so special. The personalised touches are always so heartfelt and very much appreciated. The Poacher’s Hut is the most peaceful place, perfect to unwind after a hectic week. We’re already planning when we can come back!
