Welcome to the website of Plankbridge, Dorset. As one of the earliest of the new wave of shepherd's hut makers we have the experience and expertise to build the hut of your dreams. Whatever your requirements, from new build to restoration, we have almost certainly done it, and if we haven't we are sure we can.

As a guide, prices range from £5643 plus VAT for the Dorset Downland hut, to £8500 plus VAT for the popular Plankbridge shepherd's hut.

Plankbridge shepherds' huts are completely versatile, and of the highest quality, for today's living..

The shepherds' huts are made and restored in the heart of Dorset by a small team of experienced makers. Richard Lee studied British forest products, design and manufacture at Hooke Park College in West Dorset. He has been a self employed craftsman since 1994. Jane Dennison uses her experience and eye for the traditional to paint and furnish the huts to a high standard. Jake Reilly has joined Plankbridge on a part time basis with a wealth of experience in furniture making and timber frame house building. Andrew Lee, an artisan blacksmith, creates the metal and forge work, and helps with deliveries. We take pride in our friendly, 'small family firm' approach.

'We are absolutely delighted with our hut. Our daughters had thought their parents rather crazy to buy such a thing for the garden but now they have seen it have fallen in love with the whole romantic idea.'  -Worcestershire customer

"We wanted to thank you for our wonderful Shepherd's Hut. It now has pride of place at the top of our garden and looks as though it has always been there! The children can't wait to have their first overnight in it. The craftsmanship of the hut including the attention to detail is superb. I would have no hesitation in recommending Plankbridge to anyone considering one" - Dorset customer
