A luxurious cosy shepherds hut in the Trossachs

Welcome

Sitting in the far corner of the field at Keepers Cottage, Poachers Hut is a hand-built 7m Shepherds Hut with a Hotsprings electric hot tub with massage jets, Igneus wood fired pizza oven, Kadai fire pit and BBQ.  In the summer the Hammock and Swingball are out!  Poachers Hut has mains water and electricity, en-suite shower and flushing toilet, planet friendly toiletries.  Fully insulated with heating, it has a comfortable double bed with quality mattress and linens and beautiful soft furnishings, a small kitchen, a cute cosy wood burner with baskets of wood and kindling, comfy seats and small table.  There is a smart TV with Netflix, an Alexa, high speed WIFI, and the hut has a small fridge, microwave, toaster, electric pan, airfryer, kettle and Nespresso coffee machine for those morning coffees outdoors (or in!).

You will find a generous welcome hamper including fresh eggs from our hens, milk and some home-made produce.  Baskets of wood and charcoal for the fire pit/BBQ is provided along with toasting forks.  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).

We’re in big sky country, the stargazing is on another level with zero light or noise pollution, it’s magical – especially when soaking in the hot tub or chilling around the fire pit in the whisky barrel chairs wrapped in blankets, maybe with a dram of whisky in hand… heaven!  Or in the hammock cloud gazing.

And if you’re into cooking (or even if you’re not!), you’ve got to cook your own pizzas in the Igneus wood-fired pizza oven – they’re next level!  Or enjoy a traditional bbq at the fire pit. 

Poachers Hut is more than just glamping, it’s a boutique style lush escape immersed in quietness and nature.  Whether you’re celebrating something special, planning a mini-moon, seeking a solo retreat, or just looking for a memorable getaway, Poachers Hut won’t disappoint.  With nearly 300 all five star Airbnb reviews, we would love to welcome you to this magical place.

This really was one of the best stays we've had on Airbnb. Lorna could not have done more to make us feel welcome. The space was amazing and all the little touches Lorna adds really make it extra special. The hot tub, all the outdoor cooking and reading in the hammock really led to an amazing weekend

Lorna was a wonderful host, and thought about every little detail to ensure our stay was perfect and special for us. She was contactable but also wasn’t up in your face pestering and gave you the calm and serenity to poachers hut so naturally offers. Though we had rain for our stay the place itself was wonderful and gave us a sense of calm we had so been craving. I couldn’t compliment Lorna and Ray more, just wonderful - and of course the goats!

We had a lovely stay at the Poachers Hut. Despite being close to the main home, the arrangement of the hut and outdoor space felt private and like we had all the outdoors around to ourselves. The hot tub, fire pit, pizza oven were all well maintained and instructions were explained well during check in but there were clear written instructions too. We had everything we needed in the hut to prepare food, plus a nice selection of food and drink left for us at check in too. It was fun seeing the goats keeping watch as we relaxed in the garden. Lorna sent through many suggestions for things to do or places to eat during the stay too. We would happily return to the hut!

Our stay with Lorna and Ray was truly magical from start to finish. Their warm, welcoming personalities made us feel instantly at home, and the thoughtful, personalised touches throughout the space created such a special atmosphere. The furnishings were soft, stylish, and incredibly comfortable—perfect for a relaxing getaway. Every detail was so well considered, making it effortless to unwind. We’re already looking forward to our next visit and will definitely be booking again soon. We can’t wait to return and spend time at the Hut, with the animals and also see the lovely hosts again.

I honestly can’t say enough good things about the wonderful weekend we’ve just had at the Poacher’s Hut. Lorna & Ray have gone above and beyond to make you feel welcome and at home with everything done to the highest standard. We loved sitting by (and cooking on!) the fire pit, chilling in the amazing hot tub, the super comfy bed and lovely Egyptian cotton sheets, the homemade jam, the happy birthday bunting, the welcome hamper, the cute goats and just that everything was obviously done to the highest quality and with so much care for making it the best experience for their guests. I’d also recommend a trip to Nick Nairns restaurant nearby - about 40 mins (1.9 miles) walk away - very relaxed, beautiful setting and amazing food! Thanks again Lorna and Ray, we’ll definitely be back! 😊

what a beautiful place, me and my partner spent his birthday weekend at poachers hut and we thoroughly enjoyed it, Lorna and Ray go above and beyond to make your stay so special and personalised its easy to see they have a real passion for hosting, they truly thought of everything possible. The space itself is very peaceful with beautiful surroundings you’d never get tired of. Even with the hut being close to the hosts it is very private. The hut has everything you could need and is just so homely. We hope to come back soon as this is the best airbnb we’ve ever stayed at with the most friendly and welcoming hosts, including the goats, cats and dogs! cannot recommend this place enough and if you do stay you must get the pancakes they’re just the cherry on top to your stay. Thank you again Lorna and Ray

This was by far our best stay yet, a beautiful location for peace and tranquility. A very private location. The hot tub was amazing as was the garden with the fire burner. Lorna was very helpful with suggesting beautiful walks and restaurants nearby. She was very friendly and made us feel very welcome. Lorna has thought of everything to provide guests with a great experience and home comfort. The welcome pack was a lovley touch. We also loved feeding and petting the animals especially Harris the goat! We can't thank Lorna enough for making our stay such a lovley experience. We were so sad to leave but cannot wait to go back again. we highly recommend this place, you will not be dissapointed. 10/10.

The cabin and the surrounding area is absolutely beautiful. So perfect for a relaxing get away! Lorna and Ray couldn’t have been nicer and very accommodating!The cabin was full of extra touches and details which made it above and beyond what we had thought. Lovely walks close by and not hard to get too!We will 100% be returning in summer to make use of all the other outdoor extras!
