The designer shepherd huts at Another Place, The Lakes make the great outdoors appealing to all
Byfirst opened its doors as a luxury 40-bedroom hotel in 2017. But this summer it is transforming its accommodation offering with a series of new “outdoor” spaces – six contemporary shepherd huts and a giant high-end “treehouse”.
The mix of guests is eclectic – with suites and shepherd huts specifically set up for families and an on-site kids club , family groups make up a big chunk of bookings. But with its own jetty and direct lake access plus a string of on-site water sports, open water swimming sessions, a pool, cardio room and access to state-of-the-art swimming facilities, sports enthusiasts are equally at home here.
Outside, the individual private spaces have been designed by landscape architect Laurel Truscott. Ours featured two huge Fatboy rocking chairs and bean bags alongside a fire pit, stools and a bistro set. Despite the changeable weather, we were able to sit out late into the evening on both nights of our stay as the fire kept us warm while the rockers were ridiculously comfortable.
Over in The Rampsbeck, a plush three-course dinner menu will set you back a very reasonable £55 per person. Starters include chicken and smoked duck terrine or rillette of British water mackerel with cucumber carpaccio, elderflower jelly, pickled apple and brioche croutons. From the main menu, the roast chicken supreme with fondant potato, mushroom ketchup, confit squash, braised leek and truffled chicken jus was exceptional. I could have eaten it twice over .
In The Library you can take your pick from board games and newspapers. And in the evening, there are those cosy fire pits and star-gazing windows to take advantage of.The breakfast buffet, served in The Rampsbeck, was mind-blowing. Fresh full-sized pastries , muffins and bagels, help-yourself piles of locally smoked salmon and even a waffle machine that guests could operate themselves.
