Shepherd's hut
Liked: A simple and expertly built shepherd's hut provided the perfect three-day break from screens and society. The bright stars at night were a highlight, which I enjoyed as I walked up and down the small field around the hut. The lovely wood burner kept me toasty warm, and it was only a short walk to the shower, toilet and kitchen area. The single hot plate was all I needed to prepare one-person meals over the three days. I walked to Burgh one day and Oxnead the next, also finding time to wend along the river Wensum. A lovely stay, with considerate hosts.
Disliked: As Gill kindly prepared me for, this is very luxurious camping! Which means the walk to the toilet, and having a shower, is out in the cold — and can be quite chilly. It's all part of the experience.
