“We had an amazing stay at The Happy Hut and would highly recommend it to anyone seeking a cosy getaway in a stunning location.”

The Hut is incredibly comfortable, spotless, and equipped with everything you could possibly need, with so many thoughtful touches throughout. Plus, the outdoor hot tub was an absolute treat! Alan was a wonderful host, ensuring we felt right at home and well taken care of. We would love to come back again!

“What a gem of a place, it may be small but punches above it’s weight.”

We had a lovely short break in the Happy Hut, clean and comfortable. After spending days exploring it was great to chill out in the hot tub in the evenings. Prosecco and fresh eggs from the girls next door was a nice touch as well. Thank you for sharing your place!

The Happy Hut was clean, comfortable and simply delightful. Alan had fresh Roses, Milk, water, Fresh Orange Juice, Bottle of Prosecco and Organic Eggs from his chickens!!!! The Hot Tub was a BIG surprise. Loved every moment and was very sad when we had to leave the Happy Hut. Highly Recommended

“The Happy hut at Sopley is a lovely secluded shepherds hut in a small village with a very nice pub that’s a two minute walk away.”

The hut itself is an absolute delight with everything included that you might need and more. The hot tub is situated down a elegant stoned path with stepping stones so you can walk barefoot to it. It is set amongst trees ferns and Lily’s. The lights in the trees are a lovely surprise as it gets dusk. The little extra touches as you arrive in the hut are a welcome treat. We loved our time there and would recommend a few days there to any couple for a quiet get away. The area of Dorset has lots of places to see with plenty of walking. Can’t say enough about our time at The Happy Hut

“Very comfortable and well-appointed accommodation in a lovely venue.”

I can’t make any suggestions since everything has been thought of for the guests! It provided a great place to explore Hampshire and Dorset but the local pub and farm shop were excellent and well worth a visit as well.

“Just home from a wonderful week at the Happy Hut.”

I can’t rate this fantastic accommodation highly enough! Alan & Julie have decorated and equipped it to a really high standard. It’s set in a beautiful private secluded garden with a fire pit and a hot tub! There was also the added bonus of fresh eggs every morning from the chickens next door. Was really sad to be leaving and will definitely be visiting again.

“Excellent welcome pack on arrival.”

Owner met us at arrival and explained everything. The hut is immaculate and although small it is amazing how everything is fitted in so well and so stylishly. A very nice surprise to find there is now a hot tub. We enjoyed using this after a day out exploring. Location is excellent with so many fantastic places to visit nearby. We did eat twice at the woolpack and the food is fantastic (especially the Sunday roast!). Would highly recommend this quirky rental.

Sharon July 2024

“Had a lovely week in the Happy hut, the hot tub was amazing and it was lovely to be greeted with the chickens, they were so friendly, miss them already, Happy hut had everything we needed for a comfortable stay but only 1 little drawback maybe a outside broom would help as when its windy the decking gets covered with leaves and bits which kept getting inside other than that perfect, The Happy hut is situated in a beautiful place a real little gem that we would like to visit again in the future.”

Thankyou to the owners x

- Sharon, July 2024

Thank you so much for your lovely comments so sorry it’s taken me so long to acknowledge. The broom will be in place for your return visit the customer can not be disappointed. Kind regards Al Property Owner

“Wow, what a great place to stay!”

Perfect for a couple’s getaway with everything you need for a quiet relaxing break. Well-equipped and spotlessly clean with lovely outdoor space including a new hot tub! Thank you for the ‘extras’ - so nice to find a selection of hot and cold drinks and eggs from the girls ‘next door’.

- Lynsey, June 2024

Hi Thankyou from taking the time to submit your feedback. Kind regards Alan Property Owner

About the location

CHRISTCHURCH

Bournemouth 6 miles.

The attractive Dorset waterside town of Christchurch is situated on the estuaries of the Rivers Stour and Avon, where they come together to form a magnificent natural harbour. Christchurch is a real gem of a town, offering visitors a wonderful and diverse holiday experience. The town centre boasts an array of charming shops and quality restaurants, whilst the 11th century castle ruins and the glorious Medieval priory, the longest parish church in the country, are well worth visiting. No trip to Christchurch would be complete unless you have strolled down to the pretty quayside, where you can enjoy refreshments whilst watching the ever changing boating scene, or you may wish to take one of the regular boat trips along the peaceful River Stour. Take your buckets and spades to one of the gorgeous sandy beaches nearby, and enjoy a ferry trip across the mouth of the harbour from Mudeford Quay to the sandbank with its colourful array of little beach huts. Should you tire of all the local attractions you’ll find plenty to do in the nearby family-friendly resort of Bournemouth, or venture into the New Forest National Park, both just a short drive away. Alternatively head to the local beach at Southborne which has a promenade that takes you through to Boscombe and on to Bournemouth. The lovely waterside town of Christchurch offers visitors a delightful and interesting year round holiday destination.
