I cannot fault this lovely Shepherd's hut. We had a perfect weekend - so amazingly quiet and everything was so immaculately clean and tidy. We had everything we could possibly want including some warm sunshine. Thank you so much
Fantastic little hut, was so sad to leave yesterday. So quiet, clean and modern. Surprisingly warm too.
Great facilities, lots of places to go within an hours commute. Would definitely recommend 5 stars isn't enough.
The shepherds hut was small but lovely, very clean with all the basics we needed. Joanne and Robin were friendly and helpful and the location was beautiful. Very happy with our and would definitely stay again.
