This hut is absolutely stunning. I could not fault it. I have never stayed anywhere so clean in my life, it's immaculate. Attention to detail is on another level.

A real gem

10.0

Easy to find with beautiful scenery. Dedicated parking space right next to the hut. Lovely private deck with a table and chairs, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the view. The hut is beautifully presented with an Alice in Wonderland theme. Spotlessly clean throughout. The bed linen smelt amazing. The lightweight duvet was ideal for the warm weather. Tea, coffee and sugar were provided, along with a microwave, toaster and hairdryer. Smart TV, Wi-Fi and other essentials made for a comfortable stay. It's the perfect place to slow down, enjoy the surroundings and unwind.

Honestly nothing, but a few points The mattress was a little too firm for my liking, although my partner found it comfortable. The fridge doesn't have a freezer compartment, which may be inconvenient for longer stays/warm weather. The only real downside was that the hut is close to the A6, so there is some road noise. If you're a light sleeper, it's worth bringing earplugs.

Idyllic

The shepherd’s hut was super-cute and beautifully decorated, with a lovely garden and amazing view across the fields

There was no freezer compartment in the fridge, so we had to ask the owner to freeze our freezer blocks so we could keep our food cool when we left. There was also no can opener
