Bustard Hut is a converted shepherd's hut near Cholderton, just outside Salisbury in Hampshire. Originally a hay-trailer on the farm, it has been converted into a secluded family cabin sitting at the bottom of a meadow surrounded by woodland. It sleeps four and comes with a private wood-fired hot tub.
The estate itself is steeped in history. Walk the grounds and you'll pass 5,000-year-old earthworks and burial mounds. In 2021 a hoard of bronze-age axe-heads was found in one of the fields. Stonehenge is just around the corner. Birdwatching, world-class hiking and visits to Avebury are all on the doorstep.
Inside is an open-plan layout with a living area (no TV) dining space and kitchen.
