The Herdsman Luxury Shepherds Hut

Lovely private getaway, fantastic views and amazing hosts, theirs a reason we’ve been back several times, it’s now our h

Pros: We’ve stayed here several times now and are never disappointed, lovely place, great location with the views, great outside space with added bonus large outdoor stove to keep us cosy in the evenings Alison and John are lovely hosts, nothing is too much trouble

Beautiful location

Pros: Excellent location, very clean and tidy, great hosts.

Best place I've stayed on booking.com

Pros: The shepherds hut is magnificent. It's fitted out with everything you could possibly need inside the hut and has little touches, such as a book of local walks and local information, a torch and binoculars. The underfloor heating keeps it really cosy too. In addition, the covered private outdoor area at the side of the hut is amazing. It means you can sit outside if you want, even if its rubbish weather. I didn't make use of the barbecue or log burner on this occasion but simply used the area to sit in with my mug of tea and admire the view. John and Alison are friendly and welcoming hosts and will help you to settle in and then leave you in peace to enjoy the tranquility. The view from the hut is amazing. Really peaceful and quiet. I slept really soundly every night.

Cons: Having to leave.

Outstanding stay

Pros: Everything about this stay was gorgeous. The owners were very welcoming and down to earth. The accommodation was cosy, romantic and very clean with everything needed. The views were outstanding. Would certainly recommend for sure😃

Cons: There was absolutely nothing we didn't like😉

This place and the nearby town which has a variety of shops cafes and bars, we had a lovely steak dinner at Ajs bar and

Pros: Beautifully presented, so cosy and snug! The outside space is amazing with spectacular views and if chilly a wood burner to keep you warm 🔥there’s even some binoculars to look out at the beautiful scenery, it’s the ultimate switch off location! This is our 3rd time here now and has become my happy place, John and Alison are the loveliest of hosts and I’m glad to say have become our firm friends 😁 We timed it right this time too as there was some entertainment going on in the square with lots of locals enjoying the music sitting around tables and outside bars it was truely lovely! We especially love going to the Barlic Tap to enjoy their latest stouts 😋

Cons: Our only bug bear was the kettle as you have to warm it up on the cooker which can take some time so we might bring a travel kettle with us next time as I’m not the most patient!

Great peaceful gateway on the hillside

Pros: Very quiet location on the hill side with beautiful views. There's everything you need, no WiFi or Netflix and all these things but just peace. The hut is small but very cosy. The hosts are living next door and helpful.
