About the site
The hamlet at Samlesbury Hall is a collection of 18 brightly coloured shepherd's huts, set in the grounds of arguably one of the most haunted locations in Britain. Glamping has never been so exciting! The huts are each a room in their own right, with accommodation for up to four people in each hut, complete with memory foam mattresses and an ensuite bathroom and power shower. The huts have full central heating, making them suitable for a stay at any time of the year. Each hut is also fitted with plug sockets and USB ports for your convenience. Outside of each hut is a picnic bench and fire pit, for you to sit back and relax toasting marshmallows and singing songs around the campfire. There is one dog friendly hut but please book pets in advance. Each hut can sleep up to four people in 2 double beds in bunk bed style, with an ensuite bathroom too. Outside of each hut is a picnic bench and a fire pit, for you to spend a relaxing evening toasting marshmallows around the campfire. The huts really operate as their own hotel room - and more!
