Lovely Shepard’s hut in a peaceful location with some great walks near by. Our dog loved the freedom of the enclosure around the hut and the hut itself had everything you need for a relaxing break including a really comfortable bed. We would definitely book again.

A lovely Shepherds Hut with all you need as a base. Great hosts. Lovely little garden with several seating areas and fruit and veg to pick, a lovely touch. Well maintained and spotlessly clean with plenty of towels and linen. Beautifully decorated with local info, books, magazines and cards. Access to a Bbq and firepit for night time grazing and great for stargazing with uninterrupted view of the sky. Nearby fishing will have us coming back soon. Only one negative, the noise of road spoilt the peaceful setting.
