Hillside Hut Reviews

2nd time staying at this property, absolutely perfect for us and our four legged friend.

Antony

Such a lovely place to stay. Really appreciate the effort put in to dog proofing the garden area, meant we could let our dog wander without worrying about him ending up in the neighbouring field! Owner is lovely and very considerate. Enjoyed it so much we booked another stay on the day we left!

Samantha

Absolutely beautiful accommodation in a stunning location. Such a cosy place to spend the week. Fabulous, attentive owners who had thought of everything. Thank you for the welcome treats and the present left on Christmas morning, that was very kind. Would highly recommend as a place to get away from it all. Lovely country walks on the doorstep. Will definitely be returning.
