Amazing!

Absolutely amazing experience in a unique and private setting and very comfortable bed too. Breakfast provided was great and the shower was powerful and refreshing. Nice to get away from it all and enjoyed having just a radio and no TV but there was great WiFi if needed.

Cosy night away

Lovely cosy stay - especially when it was so cold outside! The breakfast was lovely especially the homemade granola. The hosts were super communicative and helpful and came out of their way to say hello when we arrived

Lovely stay.

We spent 3 nights in The Shepards Hut which was a lovely experience. We meet Victoria and David who are both very welcoming. The Hut had everything we needs for our stay and was only 5 mins drive to the local town which had plenty of places to get food and drinks. I would definitely recommend this location to anyone wanting to get away from the busy lives, which we had booked longer. Thank you Victoria and David Laura and Wayne

The shepherd's hut really gives you the experience of being outdoors such as privacy but with all the home comforts of a flushing toilet and hot shower.

Great stay will stay again

We contacted the owner prior to our stay and they made arrangements so we could check in and leave bags there. They even gave us taxi numbers to help us out. Breakfast was delicious and I am sure we'll stay here again

Sehr schöne Unterkunft im Grünen in der Countryside für Ruhe und Entspannung, viele Sehenswürdigkeiten befinden sich in der Nähe. Besser ist es natüröich, ein Auto zu haben. Wir waren im Januar da und wir haben es sehr genossen. Die Gastgeberin ist sehr freundlich, das Frühstück gesund und ausgewogen und englisch. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Das Haus im Garten mit Aussicht ist sehr komfortabel. Danke für einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt und viele Hinweise, um die Gegend zu erkunden.

We stayed in the cosy Hopper Room. This is a lovely, friendly B&B run by attentive but not intrusive people. Great place for a stay in the countryside

Awesome stay in the country.

Great location in the country. Would need a car to get into local villages, as very rural but was beautiful, quiet and host was great.
