Beautiful Shepard’s hut in such a wonderful part of Somerset. Paula was really helpful, even baked fresh brownies for our arrival! The hut was super easy to find and was so cosy and clean. Perfect for a couple of nights to relax and unwind. Hot tub was easy to heat up by ourselves and stayed warm .... Beautiful Shepard’s hut in such a wonderful part of Somerset.
