The Barnack | 14ft Bespoke Shepherd Hut & Studio
Named after the village in which it's crafted, The Barnack is a traditional 14ft shepherd's hut built to stand the test of time - much like the famous limestone that once left these quarries to build England's finest cathedrals.
Cast iron wheels. Curved corrugated steel roof. Solid hardwood doors and windows with black iron furniture. Every detail chosen for longevity, not appearance. This is the kind of room that looks better after ten years in a garden than it did on delivery day.
Built for Year-Round Use
The Barnack is insulated to the standard of a timber-frame house, not a garden building. 100mm wood fibre insulation in the walls and ceiling, 100mm PIR board in the floor. Combined with electric underfloor heating, it is comfortable in January and cool in July.
Most garden offices are seasonal. The Barnack is not.
