Located on a 2 acre smallholding, with friendly sheep and hens, Apple Tree Hideaway is in perfect walking country- just a mile from the Offa’s Dyke Trail. You’ll be staying in the pretty village of Selattyn, just 3 miles from the market town of Oswestry and close to the Welsh border town of Chirk. Here you’ll find complete peace and quiet with just the sounds of the babbling brook, wildlife and church bells for company. You can give the car a rest and explore many wonderful walks and cycle routes straight from the doorstep and you’ll find the village pub, serving food, within just a 3 minute stroll. There is a Coop and several takeaways in Gobowen, just 2 miles away and Oswestry has everything you need including supermarkets and some wonderful pubs, restaurants and cafes.

You can relax in the full size, comfy double bed or enjoy a cup of coffee next to the log effect heater. The kitchenette is well equipped with gas hob and grill, fridge, sink and plenty of crockery, pans and cutlery. Outside the decking is the perfect place to relax in the evening, enjoying views across the fields whilst cooking on the BBQ or keeping warm next to the chiminea (fire wood provided). The hut has its own compost loo right next door and your private bathroom with large shower and utility room is a short walk away in the main house. This is accessible at all times via a private entrance and is seperated by a locked door from the rest of the cottage.

A perfect spot to get away and unwind. Small and fully fitted with all you need. Great walks from the door step. Fab pub food and desserts to die for. Good hosts, there but never imposing. I do hope to return.

What a wonderful place to stay! The shepherd's hut was beautifully fitted out, really cosy with everything we needed for a few days away. Charlotte was a great host, the little touches like the surprise shortbread and a chiminea ready to light were nice touches. We appreciated being able to use the utility room to ðry our wet gear. Would definitely recommend!

We were so impressed by Apple Tree shepherds hut. What a hidden gem of a place! From the moment we arrived Charlotte (and molly the collie) gave us a very warm welcome, and Charlotte was able to advise us on some fantastic local walks from the door, as we were keen to get out and about. The hut itself was so comfy and cosy, we had everything we needed. A big bonus for us was the private outside space, sitting by the chimnea at night looking up at the stars was just bliss! Quiet and peaceful area, with a great country pub just a few minutes walk away. It was just what we were looking for, we have already booked a return trip in December! Michelle and Pete
