We thoroughly enjoyed our brief stay in the Shepard's Hut. The Hut itself was cosy, spotlessly clean and nicely decorated inside. The bed was very comfortable and it was so nice to wake up to the view of cows out the window at the foot of the bed! We had our 1.5 yr old with us and I felt we were verywell accommodated in this regard - the travel cot was perfect & he had an amazing nights sleep (as did we)!
The surrounding farm and countryside are a delight - I wished we could have stayed longer.
I did not use the wood burning hot tub as I wasn't sure how it worked or if we were ok to get the fire going ourselves or not! I didn't read the email properly so also didn't order the 'pizza pack' assuming we could purchase it when we got there but you need to give some notice which is fine. So remember to ask about that in advance! I thought the kitchen facilities were very good with loads of space and utensils. The showers were clean and I loved the addition of products from The Handmade Soap Company - a really nice touch as their products are great.
I think the campsite could do with maybe some fairy lights at nighttime as it is very dark going up to the loo, even with the provided torches! I loved our little wood burning stove but our fire went out very quickly (our fault) and although we had lots of firewood there was very little fire starter material so we were unable to start another fire (not my speciality anyway). Had a great stay and will definitely be back! Thanks
