Shepherds Retreat is a lovely place to stay. The accommodation is very well equipped and provides a comfortable stay. The garden it is located in is perfect for relaxing in. We found that the location enabled us to explore the rest of the county quite easily.We would certainly stay there again and thoroughly recommend it to anyone looking to experience staying in a Shepherds Hut.
