Very well presented website and easy to follow, appreciate the extensive info on nearby activities/areas which helped when planning out our holiday.

A really delightful shepherd's hut, very generously spaced! Loads of room, lots of storage (a fortnight's forth of stuff fits under the bed comfortably!). Beautiful views and the hot tub is just wonderful. We would definitely return. Louise was an excellent host, with prompt conversation and helpful information....

We had a lovely stay. Amazing views! Louise was very accommodating during our stay and texted a couple of times checking that all was well. Milk and breakfast for the following morning was very much welcomed. Thank you!

Overall we loved our stay. The shepherds hut was cosy and well equipped. It was also spotlessly clean, which is a big deal for me, so 10 out of 10 for cleanliness. The location is beautiful and peaceful. Having the hot tub was a really nice addition. Louise was always on hand and responded promptly to any issues (we only had minor queries about the hot tub). We would love to stay again but the mattress was extremely uncomfortable for both me and my husband and we both had sore backs for the duration of our stay as the mattress aggravated both our previous back problems. In the bathroom there is really nice quality shower gel, shampoo and conditioner and hand soap. We also loved the welcome Prosecco, which went down a treat after our long journey. We loved the fact we were left to get on with it, but were confident that should we need anything, Louise was on hand, we didn’t have to worry about anything. A lovely stay nevertheless. It would of been even better if: -there was a small step to get in and out of the bed which is quite high - there were curtains that could be pulled over the door, for both privacy and better sleep as sunrise light interrupted our lay in -we had a fresh set of towels half way through our stay -it was nice to have complimentary breakfast items in the fridge, bacon, sausages, eggs and milk. However, to avoid waste, it would be better check dietary requirements beforehand. I do not eat meat or use milk. -a small mop or clothe to clean the floor of spills Regardless to what I have said above, these are minor tweaks and I would recommend this venue as it is truly stunning and such a lovely location. The hot tub adds that ‘special touch’ to indulge further in rest and relaxation. ...
