When planning a wedding or event in the British countryside, the goal is often to work with the landscape, not against it. You want every element—from the marquee structure to the floral arrangements—to feel like a natural extension of the setting. Yet, there is one necessity that often stands out for all the wrong reasons: the toilets.
At Holmsted Events, we believe that practical facilities shouldn't compromise your aesthetic. That is why we are thrilled to showcase our exclusive Shepherd's Hut design—a luxury portable toilet unit that combines high-end functionality with the timeless appeal of traditional countryside living.
Designed exclusively by us, the Shepherd's Hut unit brings a distinctive touch of charm to your special occasion. Whether you are hosting a festival-style wedding in a meadow, a classic garden party, or a corporate retreat in the woods, this unit ensures your facilities add to the atmosphere rather than detracting from it.
A Design Inspired by the British Countryside
Standard white plastic units can look jarring against a backdrop of rolling hills or ancient woodlands. The Shepherd's Hut design was created specifically to solve this problem, offering a solution that complements natural, outdoor, and quintessentially English themes.
Timeless Exterior Charm
The first thing your guests will notice is the beautiful exterior. With its classic curved roof, wood-effect finish, and traditional detailing, the unit mimics the look of a heritage shepherd's hut. It blends beautifully into garden, field, and farm settings, creating a warm and inviting look that feels intentional and thoughtful.
A Warm and Welcoming Interior
While the outside exudes rustic charm, the inside offers pure modern comfort. We know that guests at a luxury event expect a certain standard, and the Shepherd's Hut delivers. The interior is clean, well-appointed, and comfortable, providing a space that far exceeds the typical expectations of a portable facility. It’s a detail that adds character to your event while demonstrating a clear commitment to quality.
Practicality Meets Countryside Style
We understand that a pretty exterior means nothing if the facilities don't work flawlessly. The Shepherd's Hut toilet trailer is meticulously maintained and engineered to handle the logistics of a busy event with ease.
The Ideal Layout for Guest Comfort
Efficiency is key to preventing queues and keeping your guests on the dance floor. The Shepherd's Hut features a practical 3+1 layout, designed to cater to events of up to 250 guests over an eight-hour period.
- Ladies’ Side: Three private cubicles and a spacious vanity area.
- Men’s Side: One private cubicle, urinals, and a dedicated handwash area.
This configuration ensures smooth traffic flow, while the spacious vanity areas offer ample room for guests to freshen up in comfort.

Fully Equipped and Ready
You have enough to worry about on the big day without checking toilet roll supplies. Each Shepherd's Hut unit arrives fully stocked with everything your guests need. We provide high-quality soap, soft hand towels, and toilet paper, ensuring a seamless and pleasant experience from start to finish.
Maintained to the highest standards of hygiene, the interior continues the theme of understated elegance, creating a pleasant environment that aligns seamlessly with a high-end event aesthetic.
Flexible Hire for Every Season
The British weather is unpredictable, but your guest comfort shouldn't be. Our Shepherd's Hut toilets are available for hire throughout the year, offering a sturdy, warm, and weather-proof solution no matter the season.
Seamless Integration
We aim to make your planning process as simple as possible.
