Harper

We had an amazing stay at this shepherd's hut, ideal for a peaceful escape amidst stunning scenery. It's really well insulated, so we barely used the wood stove or electric heater even in late September. The owners went above and beyond with thoughtful touches like milk, eggs, homemade biscuitsand an OS map. Felt safe exploring soloand the location is a birdwatcher's dream. Definitely hoping to return!

Emma Carter

We had a lovely weekend here! The Shepard's Hut felt really special, with comfy amenities like WiFi and ensuite. The scenery was breathtaking, so peaceful and remote, right by the river. Definitely a great spot to unwind and switch off.

Emma T.

Honestly, we had a wonderful time here! The setting is absolutely stunning, with lovely views everywhere. The shepherd's hut was charming, the bed super comfyand the shower really good. The composting toilet was a bit quirky but added to the fun!

Our first stay in a shepherd hut and we loved it! The owners were genuinely friendly and welcoming, which made settling in easy. We appreciated the little touches like fresh eggs, homemade cakeand milk on arrival - all really tasty. The hut itself was super cosy, well-designedand had everything we needed for a relaxing break. The location by the river is just perfect - peaceful and private, yet close enough to the town for essentials and nice eateries. We'd definitely come back!

What a lovely spot to escape and unwind! The peaceful sounds of the river, birdsand sheep really set a relaxing tone. The cosy furnishings and log burner made it extra specialand the greenery outside was just gorgeous. We enjoyed wandering through the wild areas and discovering quirky sculptures. Plus, the nearby town with its independent shops and eateries was a bonus. We'd definitely go back!
