The Happy Hut, Sopley

We only stayed one night, but it was very comfortable, private, and ideal for the two of us. I can definitely recommend so much so, that I'm considering a second visit.

Absolutely loved the happy hut, was a great little place to rest after our wedding and recharge. The chickens were on form and lovely to be around, the hot tub was amazing and a great way to relax. We met the guys checking the hot tub on the 2nd day which was good as it showed the cleanliness was kept up through out, even while we were still there. Would highly recommend anyone wanting a quiet and quirky break to visit this place. Loved it

Our stay at the Happy Hut was an absolutely amazing experience, the facilities were fantastic and the cleanliness was second to none. Everything was provided and extras including the BBQ and jacuzzi ready to use if we needed them. The pub was well within walking distance which was also fantastic.

Beautifull setting Peace & quiet Loved all the personal touches Ideal setting for a retreat

This is the best UK break we have had the Happy hut is amazing and the area is just beautiful with so many attractions and beaches on your doorstep. We also thought Christchurch had some great bars and restaurants with a chilled out vibe. We had one of the most relaxing breaks and I would recommend the Happy hut to anyone

Wonderfully large, warm, pretty, welcoming hut and surrounds. Flowers, eggs, milk and useful utensils. The hot tub is also kept hot. Slight downside of distant traffic noise

What a fabulous little find. Everything you could ask for and more. From the wonderful freebies to the slippers, robes, blankets and general feel of the place, all immaculate, welcoming and cosy. The setting is beautiful. We didn't leave our little bubble of birdsong, swaying trees, chickens and hot tub. Simply soaked in the beauty and total relaxation. We always go away this time of year for a couple of nights, somewhere not too far away, a hot tub is a must. This is without question the best so far. We will most definitely be back next year.

The best weekend stay away me and my girlfriend have ever had, will defo be back to enjoy it for longer. owner was loveky

We absolutely loved our stay at the Happy Hut! The owner had thought of everything guests might need the only thing missing was a pair of scissors Lovely to have the chickens as neighbours and be given eggs, prosecco, chocolates, milk and orange juice which were much appreciated. And the hot tub & fire pit just made it extra special. Many thanks

It was the best week away! !! The fresh eggs and bottle of prosecco just immediately added to our amazing experience! The hot tub was checked daily and the fire place was a real treat in the evenings, we also got some more firewood on top of our complimentary for a good price. Everything you could need is supplied which was very helpful. Thank you so much for the experience the chickens were a nice touch to!!

We had a fantastic time at the Happy Hut, the perfect place to escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Made easy by the hot tub and cosy vibes. We had quite a significant amount of rainfall, which didn't detract from how much fun we had, if anything, it made the place even more magical. The owner is very helpful and provided some arrival goodies. We would happily stay here again.

Absolutely fantastic lication and experience

Absolutely wonderful, so cute and cosy. We stayed for a wedding at Sopley Mill, took us a minute to walk there. Loved the little touches inside the hut and the chats with the chickens outside. We were disappointed that The Woolpack pub was closed due to flooding, even though they had accepted our booking for an evening meal. We arrived and it was in darkness! We would like to return sometime.

The happy hut was such a beautiful romantic place which was just perfect for a relaxing weekend. Me and my wife both loved it from the hut to the hot tub and our lovely little neighbours. Everything was thought of from the arrival gifts to the blankets , slippers and robes . We also visited the Woolpack inn for some lovely home cooked food . We cant recommend the happy hut enough, we will definitely be back for another weekend as soon as we can

We visited the happy hut for my partners 30th birthday weekend away and it's safe to say we absolutely loved it there it was peaceful, clean, cosy and everything you could want for a weekend away, Would definitely recommend to others and would love to return for another weekend away in the future! !

Jusy returned home after spending 6 nights in the happy hut, and yes we had an amazing time we was greeted by Alan the host off which we asked if he could suggest places to visit which he kindly wrote down for us,we visited them all and was not dissapointed we also visited Hythe which i would recommend. The Happy Hut has it all there is nothing that is not missed out fom Preseco, Slippers, Dressing gown but above all the Hot Tub which we went in every night come rain to minus 2 degrees. my wife and I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND a visit. Regards Arthur, Mary.

What a find! The Happy Hut was everything and more. We had an incredible three nights just relaxing and felt fully recharged at the end of our stay. Perfect location for doing everything or nothing. We will most certainly be back!

Stayed for a few nights over a weekend with my partner, really lovely place to stay, it was extremely comfortable, cosy and romantic. The hot tub was very welcome with the long days walking around and exploring, the long journey there to find a really nice welcome back including eggs, juice, milk, prosecco and many more was a very very nice touch! The host was attentive and respectful of privacy, overall a lovely little gem with a beautiful pub down the road, a perfect little base to hang your hat after a long day exploring! Would love to come again!

We visited The happy hut at the end of October. It is such a lovely place to stay. Very clean, tidy and warm. With little touches all around the hut and outside. Everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. Really appreciated the treats that the owners left for us to use. We visited the pub The Woolpack just down the road, which was friendly and the food was good value. Would definitely go back to The Happy Hut for another stay.

Just returned from a lovely weekend staying at The Happy Hut. ..what a gem of a place ...it has everything you need for a very comfortable stay....even had milk and juice and fresh eggs from the chickens in the garden...chocs and proseco too...such a lovely touch...the hot tub was fab...and just at the bottom of the lane was The Woolpack pub...very nice food ...Will definitely book again...Thank you once again x

Wow what a lovely hut. Exceptional comfort. Everything you need. Nice touch with welcome pack.hot top brilliant. Even dressing gowns and slippers provided 5 star stay. Booked up again

The accomodation was fabulous and perfectly placed for the wedding we attended at Sopley Mill. The welcome pack of chocolates, prosecco, eggs, milk etc was also a lovely surprise, and a dip in the hot tub made for a lovely end to our first evening after a long drive.We would highly reccomend the Hut to anyone wanting a chilled and relaxing break. Scott & Sandie

I had the most delightful few days escape at the Happy Hut on my own. Felt very safe and secure as the Hut is set in a lovely wooded garden compound, behind a locked gate. The quality of the accommodation is exceptional and every facility was there. Comfy bed, constant hot water, good heating and an amazing shower. All clean and well maintained with lots of thoughtful extras, almost too many to mention. As it was autumn, didn't avail myself of the hot tub, firepit or BBQ but these would be lovely in summertime. The little treats were an added surprise Prosecco, chocs, fresh eggs, orange juice. I found the microwave, 2ring electric hob, toaster were all I needed for cooking and the Woolpack pub is literally walking distance! The location in Sopley gives very easy access to the depths of the New Forest as well as larger towns like Christchurch and Lymington. The hut is accessed by 5 relatively shallow steps I walk with a stick due to arthritis but I managed these quite easily. A lovely stay and I hope I can come again.

We came to the Hut for a few nights to celebrate our marriage. It was serene, clean, comfy, and perfect. It's a great place to stay for a few nights, and was very difficult to leave!

Hi Allan We had a lovely week staying at the Happy Hut. Very cosy and romantic setting. The welcome bits and especially the eggs from the neighbours at Cluckington Palace were delicious. The local pub was amazing with awesome food. We would definitely stay again. Thank you, April and David

Great little place for couples, relaxing and peaceful with everything you need. Prosecco, chocolates and orange juice in welcome pack. You can have fresh eggs from the chickens on the property anytime. Loved the hot tub in the evenings looking up at the stars. Definitely recommend

A beautiful little hut! Lovely little touches such as eggs,milk and chocolates. Extremely comfortable bed, we slept very well! Lovely neighbours chickens who welcomed us but we're not noisy. Amazing shower. Weather didn't allow us to use the hot tub, but looked very inviting, and with gates closed, good privacy. The pub food was awesome with friendly hosts. Great location for local sites, for walks and visiting. Will be back hopefully when weather better. Thanks Alan.

We have stayed in A LOT of shepherds huts but this is definitely our favourite. Immaculate throughout, beautiful surrounding area with lots of coastal places to visit, hot tub maintained daily, chocolates and Prosecco on arrival and fresh eggs from chickens next to the hut! The perfect getaway, thank you.

Lovely, well equiped hut with thoughtful added extras we were not expecting that made everything more special. Thank you so much.

A well needed wonderful stay was had, only wish was that we had more time there. Alan was a great host and very quick to respond to any queries and the little extra touches were a welcome treat.

Absolutely gorgeous little hut, both inside and out. Furnishings inside were beautiful, and the outside was maintained efficiently. Fresh linen and basics like tra, coffee and milk were all provided. The hottub was beautiful and maintained daily. So much to see and do around the area, and the owners provided helpful info sheets for this if you wanted to use them. The chickens were cute, too. 1010 would recommend

This cabin stay was everything we hoped for and more! We booked it for my partner's birthday, and it was absolutely perfect. The space was super clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. The early checkin we requested was kindly arranged, which made the day even smoother and more special. The hot tub was spotless and ready to enjoy, and the outdoor area was a highlightbeautifully lit in the evening with several places to relax and unwind. It created the perfect atmosphere. Little extras like orange juice, milk, and water were such a thoughtful touch too. Every detail was taken care ofwe couldn't have asked for a better getaway. Would 100 recommend and definitely plan to return! Thank You So Much Alan

Ok... Our week at the Happy Hut. First of all, yes we stayed for the full 7 days and there is absolutely no storage for clothes. This meant we lived out of our suitcases. Turns out it was a complete blessing. When you can't be bothered to go rifling through your case to change your outfit you create less washing and we also had no packing on our last day! Win win. The Hut itself is exactly as described. It's adorable. Beautifully appointed and we wanted for nothing. Comfy bed. Great shower. Coffee machine very important every utensil you can think of and all necessary electrical goods. There were some lovely added extras like dressing gowns and blankets too. Cannot fault the hut. The plot was idyllic. You are truly surrounded by what feels like you own personal forest. Fairy lights, fire pit and a BBQ add to the fun. The comfiest garden chairs ever and a wonderful hot tub. What more could you want?? Well if it's a pen full of chickens you are in luck. I mean I'm not a huge fan but they did make me giggle and seemed very pleased to see us when we would come out in the morning or return from a day out.. The Woolpack Inn serves beautiful food and is in walking distance if you want a drink or three. The Happy Hut is an excellent base to explore beautiful Dorset. We were truly spoiled by the weather and made it to Durdle Door which was breathtaking in more ways than one!! My one piece of advice if you choose a stay at The Happy Hut is to go with someone who will appreciate the utter romance on offer. It really is a little bit of paradise. Thank you

We stayed for 3 nights and had an amazing time. The hut was absolutely fabulous with everything you could possibly need. totally a five star experience. looking forward to returning for a longer stay. Big thanks to host Alan who was very helpful.

1010 Oh, what a wonderful stay we had at the Happy Hut! Although sad to leave, we felt totally refreshed and relaxed. We cant fault anything at all. It was exactly what we had hoped for and more. We immediately felt comfortable and the shepherds hut was so cosy with everything we needed and more. Private, romantic and perfectly placed. We loved our neighbours at Cluckingham Palace too! Thank you to Alan for being such a thoughtful host.

Absolutely loved our stay. Lovely hut with everything you need and more. Thank you for the little extras. We cant wait to return

We had a lovely stay at the Happy Hut it was peaceful, very cozy, and the perfect place for a relaxing break. The surrounding countryside is beautiful, and we really enjoyed exploring the area. We'll definitely be coming back for another stay in the future!

The Happy Hut was in a perfect location for us we had a great time exploring the forest and the beaches. The facilities were ok but the outside area was very untidy. The tree was growing over the door into the hut. The grass was dead and there were lots of brambles around the hot tub. Unfortunately it wasnt very pleasant to sit outside. The hut inside was ok but the bathroom was very small. It was clean and the bed was very comfortable. The eggs were lovely but no wooden spoon to cook scrambled eggs with

This little hut was amazing! clean,warm and cosy with everything you could possibly need .The bed was very comfortable there were flowers ,fresh eggs ,Prosecco and a fridge of essentials . The local pub is within walking distance and very good for food .The hot tub was lovely. A great few days away in a lovely area .We have already recommended it to friends and family and looking forward to another visit soon .

We were disappointed hot tub not available on first day
