We recently stayed in the shepherd's hut and honestly, what a lovely spot. The views are stunning, with rolling hills and our own little meadow to explore.

If you're after a quiet escape, I can't recommend it enough! Thanks for a great stay.

We had a lovely time staying here with our dog. The garden isn’t fully enclosed, but with a long lead, it wasn’t a problem at all. The hut was super cosy and had everything we needed. The views from the garden are stunningand the hot tub was just perfect after a long walk. There are some great nearby trails and a secure field about 20 minutes away for off-lead fun. Highly recommend!

From the start, the hosts made us feel really welcome, giving friendly tips about the facilities and local spots. We had a bit of trouble lighting the log burner at first, but they were quick to lend a hand. They even brought candles and offered to charge our devices during a power cut. The hut was just as described - beautiful rural setting, easy to find, close to towns and pubs. Overall, a lovely stay!

We had a lovely and peaceful stay, perfect for unwinding. The heatwave was intense, so the hot tub was a real blessingand Melissa's helpful tip about the fan was appreciated. Sadly, the dry grass didn't look its best, but the wildlife sightings - pheasants, frogs, woodpeckersand rabbits - made up for it. Definitely felt refreshed after just two days. Thanks a lot!
