Diddylake Shepherd Huts

1 unit · Glamping15 acres · Bodmin Moor, England

Two handcrafted shepherd huts in a very private, tranquil location on Bodmin Moor. The huts are off grid and have a low environmental impact. We're 3.5 miles away from the picturesque village of St Neot and 8 miles away from the historic market town of Liskeard. The North and South coasts are easily accessible offering some of the best surfing, swimming and cliff walks. The huts are cosy and homely with logburner and comfortable bed! The spring fed hot/cold shower is next to a compost loo. It’s not often you get to live in the heart of a Site of Special Scientific Interest, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty or a Dark Sky Reserve, but Diddylake is in the middle of all three. The two huts set by Diddylake house (the ruin) on the rolling moors feel a world away from just about anything. One hut is your bedroom, with wood-burning stove and thick blankets keeping it cosy in any weather, and the other is your kitchen with hobs and a dining table and the BBQ and fire pit just outside. The shower and compost loo are in their own wooden hut down by the old house. The whole site has been done out by Jackson with recycled finds and local timber, giving the spaces a soft woody smell and a homely feel. There might be a chilly stroll to the loo or a dash between the huts here and there, but it all gives you a sense of living in a different age and in real wilderness. Jacksons home is a few hundred metres away, and doesn’t intrude on you at all, but it’s still close enough that you can wander up for assistance or to visit the livestock. The rest of your time you have the whole of Bodmin Moor on your doorstep and the coast within easy reach. Split your days between rambling in the hills, trips to surfing beaches or the marked hiking trails round nearby Colliford Lake. Even lounging at the huts you’ll not want for wildlife encounters. There's lots of wildlife to observe, birds include buzzards, duck, swallows, skylarks and cuckoos just to mention a few. Listen carefully and you could hear a red kite. Deer and fox are frequent visitors and keep an eye open for butterflies, dragonflies, newts and frogs. Keep your camera to hand! At night, the seclusion is brought home by spectacular starry skies.

Campsites near Bude guide

Popular for its romantic views and sunny climate, the seaside town of Bude beckons campers to surf, swim, sail, and beachcomb along the north Cornwall coast. Beachgoers love the sandy landscapes of Summerleaze and Crooklets Beaches for their proximity to the centre of town, while surfers flock to popular Widemouth Bay. Stay in beachside cottages or glamping pods for a luxurious camping trip to remember. Other Bude attractions, such as Bude Canal and Tamar Lakes Country Park offer opportunities for hiking, bird watching, bicycling, and camping. Helpful amenities in local campsites include full bathrooms with showers, dog parks, and on-site shops before a day spent at the beach in Crackington Haven or along the South West Coast Path.

Where to Go

Crackington Haven

Crackington Haven is the scenic culminating point of the South West Coast Path, a popular hike that offers glimpses of sea views from its grassy cliffs. Crackington Haven is also part of the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) that’s revered for its nature-inspired beauty. Visit medieval castles, surfing beaches, and the Crackington Formation. Then spend the night near the path at nearby private campsites and camping parks that offer bathroom access and water hookups for motorhomes.

Bude Canal

Canoe or kayak Bude Canal to enjoy views of pastoral Cornwall. Built in 1823, the canal begins at the sea and stretches for roughly 35 miles between its two locks. Innovative incline planes like Hobbacott Down, the highest incline plane in England, makes Bude Canal a Great Britain novelty. Campsites, holiday parks, and fishing spots are available near the canal as it passes rural sections of the landscape on its way to town.

Tamar Lakes Country Park

A short 20-minute drive from Bude brings visitors to family-friendly Tamar Lakes Country Park. Upper Tamar and Lower Tamar lakes offer an attractive setting for picnics, boating excursions, fishing, and strolling the grounds. Dog-friendly cafes have light lunches and drinks, and a local ice cream shop provides cool treats on warmer days. Campsites and camping pods located nearby feature convenient amenities like water and electric hookups.

When to Go

With its mild maritime climate, Bude attracts campers during all seasons. Daily summer temperatures hover around 16°C. Expect winter temperatures to remain around 6°C. Some campers prefer to visit between June and September when conditions are driest. This is also when the ocean water at the beaches is warmest.
