In the latest of our ‘Hut For All Seasons’ series, we meet one business owner, for whom Blackdown’s collection of shepherd huts helped to turn her dreams into reality
Dreams are important – they’re often the catalyst for life-changing plans. This was the case for Chloe Dennis of In Bloom Beauty. When she was looking to expand her business, back in 2016, she dreamt of relocating her salon to a shepherd hut overlooking the lake on her family’s farm in Okehampton, Devon.
As her dream took shape and she researched the idea further, she came across Blackdown Shepherd Huts and her dream started to become a reality.
Following a visit to Blackdown’s display garden in Ilminster, Somerset, Chloe discovered the Tasker self-build hut, which was the ideal solution for her business. It offered all the quality of a Blackdown build, but in a kit form that Chloe and her family could construct, safe in the knowledge that the Blackdown support team were on hand to answer any questions.
Order placed, Chloe began to build on her dreams, planning a space that her clients would find relaxing while enjoying their treatments. In Bloom Beauty opened in its new setting in June 2017 and proved an immediate hit. Chloe’s clients loved the stylish salon with glazed double doors that opened out onto beautiful lake views.
Fast forward a successful few years and Chloe’s dreams and ambitions were once again starting to gather pace, so when she saw the Blackdown Brace double hut, she knew that it was the logical next step for her growing business.
She and her family set to work building the new acquisition and the bigger and better In Bloom Beauty salon opened earlier this year. Chloe’s keen eye for style and detail has resulted in a beautiful space that she not only adores working in, but her clients love to visit. We wonder where Chloe’s dreams will take her to next.
