The dimensions of a modern shepherd’s hut can go up to 20ft + in length. By today’s standards, a 12ft hut would be considered small and maybe used as a garden retreat, writers hut or basic holiday offering. Shepherd’s hut length usually starts at 12″ as a minimum but can go all the way up 24ft long. The smaller huts will be at least 1.5 tonnes in weight with the big, top of the range huts weighing up to 3-4 tonnes. We always aim to provide the best possible holiday experience, however, if you have any complaint or problems during your stay, please immediately notify the Owner during the stay itself, so that the Owner has the opportunity to resolve the problem at the time. If you do not follow this procedure, there will be less opportunity for the Owner to investigate and resolve your complaint and to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. Delays may also mean that the amount of compensation you may be entitled to, may be reduced or negated. We have built all of our kit parts to fit through a standard sized doorway so if necessary they can be taken through a house, garage or garden gate. The only exception to this is the metal base frame.

What the old man gives to Jaxie is not only his physical life, but the gift of self-recognition and self-esteem. In Winton’s earthed theology, in The Shepherd’s Hut, he presents us with a palpable ritual, the movement of Jaxie’s boyhood into manhood. There is a fathering that takes place, a making of home, a sacramentalizing of Jaxie’s self-worth. The boy begins to recognise himself as a creature in equal relationship with another human being, with responsibility toward that other, and to the created world of birds and sunlight and song and sun and moon. Not just the little thug who needed to hit out.

As a result, we decided to lower the hut to aid access. To increase stability, we kept the wheels away from the undercarriage and had solid axles running the width of the hut, rather than stud axles. With these changes, access was improved to produce what we believe is a stronger, more stable, rugged-looking hut, far more suitable for today’s use.

On his national book tour to promote The Shepherd’s Hut, Winton has spoken of an Australian culture of toxic masculinity, the creating of boys and men with no sense of purpose or meaning, no self-worth, no rituals to honour the movement of boys into manhood. The novel is a symbolic staging of this movement, in extremis.Another month gone, a reminder every cycle that your moment is waning. No wonder it catches in a little fella’s chest when he sees it. Mebbe lunatics are men who’ve remembered they’re just men, not angels. Usually, these steps would be narrow and fairly unsteady, especially when a farmer had an armful of sheep.
