Perched on the hillside of a working farm, the Rooster Hut is a large Shepherds Hut with mains electricity and plumbed in facilities plus stunning views overlooking Underbarrow and further to Scout Scar. Outdoor furniture with fire-pit is ideal for warmer days or the log-burning stove inside is ideal for colder nights.
The Lake District Shepherds Hut has been fitted with modern appliance while still maintaining the Hut's characterful charm. If you don't fancy cooking, visit the popular Black Labrador Pub where they offer fantastic food and real ales. They are dog-friendly too!
