This romantic shepherds hut is both tranquil and away from it all, yet comes with a host of spa luxuries. An all year round holiday retreat in the most beautiful and unique location, with plenty of privacy along with indoor and outdoor bathing and cooking facilities.
Set deep within King Edward VIII Wood, Bishy Barny Bee is named after the local Norfolk term for a ladybird (said to be inspired by Bishop Barnabas of Norwich). An all year round holiday retreat in the most beautiful and unique location, far from any roads. If you’re seeking a touch of luxury and solitude, then Bishy Barney Bee offers both in abundance. Step up to the verandah and you will find the luxurious, double ended bath where you can lie back, relax and enjoy the stars with your favourite bubbles whilst watching the wildlife around you. Dry off in front of the gas fire pit, before cooking supper in the well-appointed outdoor kitchen. Finish off the evening with a Twilight Hamper full of tempting delights such as marshmallows, popcorn, chocolate sauce and hot chocolate, which can be ordered from the owners on arrival, although you will be greeted by complimentary starter welcome pack along with toiletries.
Inside the hut is a fabulous wood burning stove and a very comfortable king-size bed with crimson red and rich black cushions and soft throws. With a built-in boom box and a 20 inch television to enjoy, you will feel relaxed and cosy whatever time of year you choose to stay.
Watch the sun rise over the arable fields from your verandah, where you might spot the red deer grazing in the early morning. With the adjacent land owned by the Norfolk Wildlife Trust, there is plenty of opportunity to see birds and wildlife, so don’t forget your binoculars. Set within 32 acres, it literally brims with wildlife. The sunrise is beautiful over Thompson's Lake, about a mile from your hut and is located just off the Peddar’s Way path.
The hut has the added benefit of a choice of two outdoor spa areas. The Lotus Spa and The Lilly Pad Spa. Please see below for further information.
Bishy Barney Bee is located just outside the village of Thompson, deep in Thetford Forest, on the outskirts of the forest canopy of beech and elm, in the company of two similarly appointed huts, yet offers plenty of privacy. There is a good pub in the village, in walking distance, where you can enjoy local ales and good food.
