High Rigg Shepherd's Hideaway Reviews

Heaven
Second time booking with Brenda and David First time we stayed in their high Rigg Shepherd?s delight hut so thought this time we would try their high Rigg shepherd?s hideaway hut yet again was not disappointed Nice and cosy inside and outside is so peaceful and quiet Again on arrival there was a bottle of fizz and two homemade shepherd pies always a nice added touch to our stay We enjoyed every second of been there Sometime this year we will try another one of their huts Thank you again to Brenda and David
Perfect Getaway!!!
We arrived to the site in the evening after a super foggy drive, we spoke to the owner quickly and at a distance (due to coronavirus) to find out where to park our car for our shepherds hut. The car is parked out of the way and nearby the back of the house which was decorated beautifully with christmas decor. The hut is situated behind the shop that is on site, unfortunately we never got chance to go into this shop but it did look lovely. Behind the shop is a line of trees, a beautiful enchanting walkway to the back of the hut and BAM, you are there! The heating was on, and the lights to light up our path made us feel amazing as soon as we arrived. Im not a fan of shepherds pie but this shepherds pie that was provided was UNREAL. Could eat that everyday for the rest of my life... The hut was beautifully done to a high standard, the bed was really comfortable and the shower pressure was amazing. The hot tub was amazing after a long day out in the cold. The location is right in the middle for the North Penines and the upper part of the Lake District. I would 100% recommend and i would 100% return! Thank you!
Excellent
Me and my partner both loved this place really clean and very relaxing, also lives up to its name "hideaway" very private. Would love to stay here again. Ps shepherd pie was the best I've ever had thank you .

Tullie House Museum & Art Gallery - CA3 8TP
about 7 Miles
This is a museum and art gallery in one and will suit those looking for an educational and cultural day out.  You can explore the fantastic art collection including Fine Art, Decorative Art and Textiles.  If you love nature then this aspect of Tullie House will appeal. The museum holds large and important collections of zoological, botanical and geological material. And for lovers of history there is plenty to wet your appetite here. Tullie House collects a wide range of historic materials including objects, ephemera (printed material), photographs and associated information files.  We think this museum and art gallery are excellent value for money as well.
Kielder Water Bird of Prey Centre - NE48 1BT
about 22 Miles
Housing the most fascinating collection of Birds of Prey in the North East this centre is definitely worth a visit if you are staying in the Kielder Water area. Located in Falstone it's easy to get to and makes a great day out for both families and couples.  As well as seeing the amazing birds you can learn all about the captive breeding programme and the excellent work being done there.  Some of the highlights of the day might include watching a Falcon stoop down from the skies at over 100mph and admiring the grace of the Eagles, Kites and Hawks.
Lake District Wildlife Park - CA12 4RD
about 23 Miles
We love this day out in Cumbria where you're encouraged to "take a fresh look".  Some of the amazing animals you will get to see include the only Canadian Lynx in the UK and you will have the opportunity to help their Lynx Conservation Project.  The Asian Fishing Cat is also well worth a look - these cats are known for diving under the water and catching fish!  Other activities include fantastic flying displays and play areas for the little ones...
Ullswater Steamers - CA11 0US
about 24 Miles
This is an award winning Lake District attraction and they have been operating cruisers on Lake Ullswater for over 150 years.  There is no better way to explore the lakes than on water and you could even combine a cruise with a spectacular walk.  For great days out in this region then this attraction is highly recommended and will appeal to couples as well as families.  Corporate groups are also well catered for.
