Melanie

A perfect little hideaway in a fantastic location. Couldnt have wished for better. Excellent communication from the host

Regine

As as first time glamper, I wasnt sure what to expect. The cabin and facilities were spot on and we had enough logs for the hot tub and fire pit, we also brought our own but this wasnt really needed. Since we had nice weather on the first day we were able to sit outside on the first morning for breakfast which was really lovely. When it did rain, tRead morehe cabin was dry, warm and comfortable. Slight noise from tracters/cars and headlights as it is next to a road. Other than that, it was lovely. Hide

Sally

We really enjoyed our stay, booking was easy and the hut was gorgeous. Bed was extremely comfy albeit a bit high up for short people like me! It was very clean and functional. The shower was amazing, my 6ft 4 husband was delighted to be able to actually stand under the shower head. Peaceful on the whole but did have some noisy motorbikes going by d aily. Lovely place to stay

Absolutely superb - peaceful location in a very pretty part of the U.K. The owner was lovely to deal with when we needed some assistance. Guide book very useful with lots of local information. We went to one of the pubs mentioned (The York Inn) which served very nice food with great staff. Couldnt recommend this shepherds hut enough for a complete break from it all.

A wonderful hide away, just perfect. Everything is well presented, fresh flowers & a welcome bottle of fizzy. Comfy bed & lovely pillows. The hot tub is perfect for relaxing of an afternoon or evening. It was our time to stop and escape our busy lives, in a peaceful relaxing location.

I booked this hut for my partners birthday we had a wonderful time here! We didnt want to leave! There was everything that we needed in the hut to make our stay comfortable. There were nice little touches too such as fresh flowers and a booklet of local walks to do. The wood burner was perfect when it got a bit chilly of an evening. The hut was ver y private. I would definitely stay here again.

Clare

We had a fantastic 3 Night break in Lillian. Really comfortable accommodation in a beautiful, quiet and peaceful location. Lots of little extra touches made the stay extra special such as dressing gowns, huge fluffy bath sheets, fantastic shower, spotless hot tub, electric blanket on the bed and all immaculately presented. Far enough away from the one other shepherd's hut for privacy. Would definitely recommend and we would be happy to return again.
