Had a lovely week at this beautiful site. Stunning location, cozy cabin, friendly and helpful owners, perfect walks and everything we needed. Had such a relaxing week and will definitely be back!
What a hidden gem! We thoroughly loved our time and didn’t want to leave, such stunning views and a complete retreat. Dee and Peter were wonderful hosts, and we can’t wait to go back in August! Thanks for such a super time!
What a lovely spot to stay, beautiful surroundings, calm, peaceful and relaxing. The shepherd's hut is comfy and cosy, the kitchen building has everything needed for self-catering. It's not the Ritz - but wants the Ritz, this is way better! The hosts were helpful and friendly. Couldn't have asked for a better break.
We had a lovely time, very peaceful, nice people and nice and clean, our only criticism was no outside lighting whatsoever, so was abit scary when you needed the toilet during the night, which would of been OK if we had of known because we would of took a torch.
We had a fantastic time staying in the Shepard Hut great location accommodation great the owners Peter & Dee very friendly and helpful we will return & recommend 😄
This is a beautiful spot overlooking valley and mountains. Lovely owners. We found it hard to leave the property at all - just because it was so relaxing! Very reassuring Covid protocol too. Many thanks. See you again!
Very friendly hosts Dee and Peter who maintain the place very clean and comfy. The view from the hut of the valley is very inspirational especially the view of the beautiful sunset. Thank you Dee and Peter for a wonderful relaxing weekend.
It was an unbelievable location. Exactly what we wanted - surrounded by nature with an amazing view just outside our window. Peter and Dee were very accommodating and lovely. If you are looking for a peaceful place to stay among nature - this is perfect for you.
Stunning setting, lovely owners, only wished I’d booked a longer stay! Property and facilities are clean, set up allows for social distancing. Will definitely be back
Was the most beautiful location. I was truly so surprised by how big the hut was - not cramped at all. They were lovely people. Would highly recommend :)
Brilliant sray, great accommodation, good clean and equipped facilities.
Geese are wonderful as is the footballing dog.
Llamas keep themselves to themselves.
Good access to walking from ‘home’ as it were.
Highly reccommended.

Loved my stay here...very relaxing and just what I needed. Good facilities.
Amazing experience. Pete and Dee were very hospitable. Two inquisitive Llamas, Geese next to the hut, a cute Dog who loved to show off her football skills, Chickens and a friendly Cat who made us feel at home...
Would certainly recommend for a relaxing holiday!
