Had a fabulous break. The property was stunning and exceeded our expectations and was fully equipped. Like home from home. Nikki and Spence were very friendly and gave us some great information on the local area and things to do.

A very warm welcome awaited us at this tranquil property. So much thought had been put into getting the property just right. The owners went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. We went away feeling refreshed. What more could you want than a lovely country walk followed by a spell in a hot tub! ...

An excellent stay at the impeccable Horshoe. Hosts Nicky and Spense have really thought of everything here. An array of quality welcome treats tempt you upon arrival; an abundance of ideas/ local information is provided; a spacious hot tub awaits; a very comfy bed beckons. A big plus too for the EV driver is the on-site Zappi type 2 tethered charger, which meant we could head home with a full charge. A truly relaxing stay!...

We had the most fantastic holiday - thank you. Nikki and Spence are perfect and generous hosts who have thought of and provided every comfort you could possibly wish for. The Hut was absolutely spotless and the little extra touches make this a very special place that we will be returning to. Without hesitation we would wholeheartedly recommend this gem; which is set in a beautiful, peaceful location in wonderful surroundings. The local pub (3 mins stroll away) offers fine ale and excellent food and there is a hotel (12 min walk away) for an alternative eating out option. There is also a village shop for essentials if you don't want to drive anywhere. Book early as we have already told friends and family how great the Horseshoe Shepherd's Hut is! ...
