  We had the most Delightful stay for the last week in October.

  My partner and I were in awe by the views. The proprietor greeted us warmly shortly after our arrival to ensure we had everything we needed. There were several other Shepherd huts located on the beautiful land they own. We were able to glimpse some however others were well tucked away. Our hut was closest to the road / very large pond and we enjoyed spectacular sunsets and views overall. This meant some increased passers by but we didn’t find this intrusive. Several visits from cows while we cooked or played music. The interior of the hut was surprisingly big in comparison to others I’ve stayed in. It had everything we needed and all to a high spec. Plush towels, nice interior decoration, robes and romantic vibes. The en-suite was tight but useable and we preferred having the more spacious living area. The bed was SO comfy and log burner warmed us up really well. The main reason for booking was the covered hot tub and we were not disappointed. The lights in the tub itself didn’t work however the outside space had lots of exterior lighting and fairy lights which compensated. David tends to the tub daily which we were grateful for and given the time of year we simply recovered and allowed time for the tub to reheat when the temperature dropped. We would definitely return and I’m keen to possibly stay in some of the other huts too. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to our family and friends what isn’t to live - lush homemade shepherds pie and fizz thrown in!!

  When we first made contact to Phill the one of the owners we just needed some help on where we get the key for property and any other info that would useful to us.

  He told us where to collect the key and he also asked if we wanted the hot tub heated up already for when we arrived and what temperature. I’m pregnant so I said I’ll just dip my legs in for a few mins. They asked what drinks we would like on arrival we obviously went for soft drinks but they offer alcoholic drinks too. On the way down we gave them a call and told them we will be arriving late they were absoloutley fine with this. They heated the hot tub at a safe temperature for me as I’m pregnant so it was luke warm but still enjoyable. When we arrived at Heather Hut the owners were there to greet us the showed me and my partner how to use everything. The bed folds away into a sofa and visa versa there are information cards explaining how to do this and a video. There was booklets about what to do in the area and local restaurants which deliver also. In the fridge we had fresh milk, water and butter provided in the freezer there was ice. Cleaning supplies provided. And shower supplies provided. The hot tub was lovley and relaxing and the views are amazing even from the hot tub. There are little heaters in barn where the hot tub is to keep warm they worked wonders. Overall we couldn’t of picked a better place to stay for a few nights away. They did more than enough for us and they’re super friendly. There is loads to do in the local areas lots of shops. Would definitely recommend if your looking for a couples get away.

  What a fantastic stay we had here!

  The property itself, the location and the excellent hosts made our little get away such a wonderful experience. The generous welcome pack, the well maintained facilities and tranquil surroundings made our stay nothing short of perfect! The host’s attention to detail making your stay special and their approachable nature made the whole experience from checking in to checking out very relaxed and enjoyable. They provided helpful information about the local area such as walks, activities and eateries worth a try; they explained clearly how to use all of the facilities and made it clear that they were contactable if we needed anything during our stay but didn’t hover and gave us privacy throughout the entire stay. The views from the property are breathtaking and being able to look upon them while in the hot tub, listening to music on a speaker provided by the host and enjoying a glass of wine also gifted by the hosts was such an enjoyable and wonderful experience. You are short of nothing in the Shepherd’s Hut, a comfy bed, robes and slippers, a warm shower with shampoo etc and all the cooking facilities needed with complimentary coffee etc. a heater near the hot tub if required and romantic lighting around the outdoor area for sitting around the fire pit. A beautiful property and experience all round. Thank you Lisa and Phil for your excellent hospitality. We will definitely be back!

  We had the loveliest time here.

  We really did not want to leave after our short stay, it was so perfect for the two of us. The hut had everything we could possibly need inside and the wine, pies, robes and slippers were a lovely surprise that put big smiles on our faces! The grounds are beautiful, we spent most of our time looking over the water and surroundings, it just felt so perfect being nestled amongst the trees in this quiet slice of heaven. The wildlife around us was a bonus too and so nice to just spend time watching throughout the day. We loved that the owner was so lovely to chat to and loved hearing how the property has been built from the beginning. We were so sad to leave the beautiful surroundings and chilled out nights with the hot tub and amazingly comfy bed! This place could not be any more ideal in my eyes and we are already wanting to come back as soon as we can. It was perfect for us and the owners had made this getaway so welcoming and comfortable. Thank you for having us and allowing us to fully enjoy your beautiful and clean property. We cannot wait to book our next one with you as no where else has been anywhere near as perfect as yours. I would recommend anyone to stay here for a completely relaxing stay.

  Stayed here with my partner and we have stayed at many lodges before with hot tubs and this was certainly the best.

  It was so cute and cosy. Really clean. What we loved the most is that the small details have been thought out. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve stayed in a hot tub lodge and there is no where to hang your dressing gown or a place to put your drinks/belongings. So it ends up going on the floor and getting wet. These provided lovely dressing gowns, slippers and the hot tub area had lovely lights, a place to hang your stuff and a place for your drinks/mobile etc. The cover over the hot tub was great and meant you could use it regardless of the weather. The views were beautiful too and even though we didn’t meet the hosts personally, we felt very looked after. We were even given Shepard’s pies and a bottle of champers. Very personal and we will definitely return. Only thing was that the lights didn’t work in the hot tub which wasn’t an issue as the area itself had fairy lights and a main light if wanted. Thankyou for our stay!
