The slightly larger of our two distinguished drovers’ huts, Quercus is a sumptuous oak Drovers cabin with a stunning handcrafted four-poster bed at its heart. Enjoy a barbecue looking over the Chilterns, sat around the firepit for relaxed summer evenings and a wood burning stove to keep you cosy in winter.
In designing the interior of Quercus with the help of former Sibyl Colefax and John Fowler designer Sophie Stonor William and Ailsa have thought of everything, from 300 thread count linen, the beautifully finished kitchen – complete with Nespresso machine, Grind Coffee from Shoreditch and pull-out Fisher & Paykel dishwasher – to the delightful ensuite bathroom with handmade crackle-glaze tiled shower and piping hot high-pressure showers supplied with organic Commune toiletries. You’ll even find a Dyson hairdryer in the hang-cupboard.
Quercus has been hand built with the utmost craftsmanship in Dorset and on site at Stonor by Plankbridge, the makers of Britain’s finest shepherd huts. Each is a work of art made entirely from scratch under the guidance of master hut maker Richard Lee, who trained at John Makepeace’s college.
