A lovely quiet location with fantastic views.

9.0

Amazing location with fantastic views over towards North Wales. Very quiet and ideally located for us as we were doing the parkrun in Delamere forest, swimming at Wild Shore and a function at The Glasshouse.

It would have been good to have a hairdryer available, but should have brought one with us!

My new happy place ❤️

10.0

We absolutely fell in love this this little hut, the host has really put a lot of effort into this place I actually think it might be the most relaxed I have ever been. It felt like we were the only people in the world sat looking at beautiful views in our own little bubble. The bed felt like sleeping on a cloud. Hearing the horses so close and all the wildlife you hear while sat outside the hut is amazing. It's so cosy with the fairy lights and very well equipped. We will 100% be back again.

Coming home after being at the hut my house feels loud and chaotic I am sad I only booked one night.

Wonderfully situated. Quiet, secluded with extraordinary views. We had very relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Great little hut

10.0

Picturesque, quiet, peaceful, well equipped, clean little hut. Owners were lovely and provided clear guidance how to access the hut. Were flexible with arrival times to meet our needs.

The bed was very high, but there was a stool provided to support access to it.
