Business description
The business was established in 2000 by our client and specialises in the manufacture and distribution of high quality ‘shepherd’s huts’. The huts are hand built to a traditional design which has been in use for centuries and is now being adapted for a wide range of uses such as fishermen’s huts, summerhouses, office or retail spaces, accommodation; and can be seen on private estates, gardens and in the grounds of country houses. Each unit is hand crafted to a high standard and can be tailored to suit a customer’s own requirements, incorporating a number of options such as wood burners, beds, desks and under-floor heating.
