I have just enjoyed a wonderful stay here with two of my children. The shepherd's hut is absolutely lovely - really comfortable with well thought-out features and very thoughtful touches from the owners - brownies and fresh eggs and milk on arrival. The hut is in an incredibly peaceful location and we loved getting away from London for a few days. Highlights for us were cooking over an open fire - there's a great firepit and logs were provided. We loved making our daily meals over an open fire. We also loved the hammock which we all spent quite a bit of time in. The beds are comfy (my 12 year old was fine in the pull down bed above the main double) and there's lovely linen on the double bed which was a nice bit of luxury. Janice the owner was incredibly lovely and helpful. We will definitely be back to stay again, and I would really recommend this place if you want to stay somewhere that leaves you feeling very remote, but is actually close to plenty of amenities should you need them.

Stayed in this charming place at the end of September. It is so quiet with only the wildlife and cows to disturb you. The kitchen has everything you need, with pots and pans for gas rings and the fire pit supplied. Bathroom is very well appointed bearing in mind you are in the middle of a wood. I am told the main bed is very comfortable, I slept in the pull out one which is just a little hard and really better for a child. Everything has its place and all fits in very neatly. Throughly enjoyed ourselves and will be booking again.
