A SHEPHERD'S hut for holiday accommodation at a Furness farm will 'potentially sustain the future of a struggling rural business', according to South Lakeland District Council.
Planners approved the application by Hilary Thompson for a solar-powered holiday let in a field at Ben Cragg Farm, Newland, Ulverston.
They agreed the design of the hut, complete with composting toilet, would be sympathetic to the landscape.
