If you’re considering the rental returns of holiday hut ownership, you’ve come to the right place. We are proud to build bespoke huts and cabins for some of the world’s leading country hotels and unique staycation venues.
Guest demand for holiday accommodation continues to grow and shepherd’s huts are infinitely versatile. Depending on the layout, decor and location, they can be enchanting, romantic and even luxurious; suitable for families and couples alike. Over the years we have helped manoeuvre Plankbridge huts into some of the most breathtaking locations, creating idyllic retreats that provide the perfect tonic to our busy lives.
For those planning a commercial venture, well-built shepherd’s huts and cabins can provide a prudent investment that will be around for many generations to come. Compared to holiday cottages, they require a lower capital outlay, while offering excellent nightly rental yields. To make the process even smoother, our team can guide you through the planning permission process, ensuring your hut becomes a reality with minimal disruption.
If you are starting your own journey, our hut calculator and checklist can help. Simply input the cost of your hut, nightly rate, annual running costs and occupancy level, for an idea of how long it will take to get a return on your investment.
To help calculate your running costs, we recommend considering the following checklist. Add up the costs for a year and you’ll have an approximate running cost figure to drop into the calculator.
