Higher Merther Farm Shepherds Hut
Description
Higher Merther Farm Shepherds Hut rests in Sithney, near Helston, offering inviting single‑storey accommodation for two guests. Tucked away in a peaceful rural spot, it’s just the place for a quiet escape full of Cornish character.
Step inside to find a thoughtfully arranged studio‑style space, where a king‑size bed sits alongside a dining area and a cosy seating spot, ideal for putting your feet up after a day exploring the coast and countryside. The kitchenette provides the essentials for easy meals and morning coffees, while an electric fire adds a welcome touch of warmth on cooler evenings.
The shower room, located externally, features a walk‑in shower, basin, heated towel rail and WC, offering a practical setup without intruding on the hut’s snug and simple layout.
Outside, the enclosed lawn and gravelled area provide a pleasant place to sit out and enjoy the fresh air, whether you’re easing into the day with an al fresco breakfast, or winding down at sunset. Off‑road parking for one car keeps things straightforward, and a well‑behaved pet is welcome to join the adventure.
From the hut, the harbour town of Porthleven is nearby, known for its characterful waterfront, eateries and coastal walks. You can also head to Falmouth for beaches, maritime attractions and galleries, or explore Penzance for a classic Cornish day out. Local highlights include the Penrose Estate, the sandy stretch of Praa Sands, and the heritage charm of Helston Railway.
With its simple comforts and great position for exploring, Higher Merther Farm Shepherds Hut makes a cracking base for a laid‑back Cornish break.

What guests are saying
Absolutely lovely accommodation in a secluded spot with a beautiful view.
Our hosts Alison and Keith were lovely and extremely accommodating. I'd highly recommend staying here!
This was exceptional accommodation.
In a beautiful setting, the shepherd's hut was the perfect springboard for each day's exploration and a welcome place to return to. Peaceful, rustic, tranquil, you name it, it was everything you could hope for.
We enjoyed our stay.
The Higher Merthyr Farm Shepherd's Hut was clean, well appointed and has everything you need. The outside WC was very good which made the hut more spacious. Our dog enjoyed our stay as well. They have well kept and secured garden. The stunning views of the rolling hills of the Cornish country side was great. The car was park near the hut. The hosts - Allison and her husband were very welcoming, friendly, and helpful. The welcome pack was well thought off and very nice specially scones were delicious. We had a quiet, relax atmosphere. We highly recommend the shepherds hut. We can't wait to go back there again one day soon!
