Robin Hood's Hut

Robin Hood's Hut is a small stone pavilion in Goathurst with three separate rooms including an earth-floored chamber, kitchen, and dining space. The building features a covered open-air shelter at its front and a tiled roof.

The pavilion was built between 1740 and 1760 under Sir Charles Kemeys-Tynte's direction. The structure underwent significant restoration in the 1990s after losing its roof, windows, and original plasterwork over time.

The small pavilion stands as an example of 18th-century English architectural design, built between 1740 and 1760 under Sir Charles Kemeys-Tynte's direction.

The pavilion is available as overnight accommodation through the Landmark Trust, allowing visitors to experience a stay within this Grade II* listed building. The rooms are compact and functionally equipped for residential use.

The building had deteriorated so severely that it was on the brink of complete loss before its rescue. Its careful restoration received recognition in the Building Conservation category, demonstrating how skilled craftsmanship can save a forgotten structure.
