Amazing stay despite storms! 5/5

What an amazing stay we had started off rocky when we got stuck 15 minutes from the property on ice and owners came out to help us and the directed us the long way round to the property! It was incredibly stormy but we still had a lovely and relaxing stay!

Lucy Horton | 25 November 2024

Lovely stay. Highly recommend 5/5

Beautiful shepherds hut and beautiful surroundings. Definitely worth the money and will be returning.

Lucy Jones | 31 October 2024

Lovely few days 4.8/5

Gorgeous location, very clean and thoughtful touches of milk and Welsh cakes on arrival. The welcome pack was thorough with excellent suggestions of eateries and local walks. Best stars I have ever seen sitting in the hot tub at night. If you want an escape from reality, you should stay here.

Katie Fletcher | 08 September 2024

Excellent 4.8/5

The only issue was not realising we had to pay £200 security deposit! Caused a bit of panic but the owners were contactable and it was quickly resolved. It didn’t spoil our break which was fabulous.

Pam Maguire | 29 August 2024

Fabulous doggy friendly stay little piece of heaven 4.8/5

Lovely place …..beware you must take a dog bed or blanket as dogs not allowed on soft furnishing's . And they need to chicken wire the gates a little higher as some larger breeds could escape . The place itself is beautiful , bed comfy , ample kitchen well stocked for 2 ppl glasses etc stunning views once the clouds move , brilliant jacuzzi all in all a great stay . Get supplies before you get there as proper food shops around ten mile away there is a small post office shop and a public house in the village which is nice and dog friendly

Zo smith | 25 July 2024

Such a nice stay with amazing views 5/5

Lovely place and experience overall. First time staying in somewhere like this and it didn’t disappoint, great facilities and would recommend to anyone. Lovely area and will be visiting again!

Cerys Holloway | 14 November 2023

Perfect break away 5/5

We had a relaxing break away the cabin was completely comfortable, perfect views, my only point I would make is a cover for hot tub as it rained and we couldn’t use it as often as we wanted to, apart from that it was perfect!

Tracy Tither | 13 July 2023

A hidden gem 5/5

Absolutely beautiful area, stunning views. So peaceful you can only hear the birds and sheep. The shepherds hut was perfect, spotlessly clean and everything you might need. Hot tub so relaxing. I would highly recommend this place.

Patrick Greenman | 25 April 2023

Beautiful 5/5

The shepherd hut was beautifully presented with everything you would need for a short stay. Surrounded by the most beautiful views, this pod was one to remember

Beautiful Location for a Hot Tub Getaway 4.8/5

The shepherds hut was so clean and comfy on arrival with the best views I've seen from staying in these types of places. Bed was very comfy. Hot tub was great as expected, though we didn't have the best weather but we made the most of it! A few things that we would've found useful would be a real charcoal BBQ grill outside rather than the small firepit due to the lack of oven, it would really allow more cooking options. Also a chopping board. We've been on a lot of other hot tub holidays and never been asked for a damage deposit. Maybe this place has had a bad experience with a guest, but these cabins are for 2 people no big groups can come which usually cause damage. Our deposit was returned in full even though, the very next day! We broke a plastic cup so don't be scared of it, it's just something for the owners to think about 🙂 The hut is small but I think they really made the best use of the space it felt so warm and cosy, yet if it got too hot it was easy to release heat. We had a fantastic time. Beautiful location with some sheep and wild horses next door!

Idyllic weekend break 5/5

A totally faultless stay. Property modern, well equipped and immaculate. Loved the rural setting. Ideal time of year to visit for lambing, we spent hours watching them in the fields that surrounded us. Thanks again.

Rae Beeston | 27 March 2023

Beautiful. Relaxing chilled 4.8/5

Stunning location. Beautiful accommodation. Beautifully presented. Would absolutely recommend it for a peaceful relaxing break. Lots of lovely details. The robes. The fresh eggs and milk. Everything was thought of. The hot tub was amazing. We had a brilliant time. Loved the birthday hamper. Absolutely perfect
