I booked this place for my boyfriend to have his first experience in the UK from Greece, I wanted something cute and quaint, this was perfect We sat on the decking watching the stars and bats fly around at night, sat inside with the fire on when it was chilly and watched movies and cooked a lot which was great considering the small size it had a great kitchen! Overall, a lovely little getaway

The shepherds hut was amazing, it was very clean, comfortable and had everything I needed for a great stay. The location couldn't be better for visiting family nearby and will definitely be back next time I'm down this way. Thank you....
