What our customers say about their holidays
Christine - Verified booking
Had a great week in this property.
I'd highly recommend and I'll hope to go back one day. The only things I'd note are: If you want ice for drinks etc take an ice cube tray as there wasn't one.; Also take a pair of oven gloves there weren't any. The loo needs some plumbing adjustment because it wastes water when refilling as it keeps running for ages but thats a concern for the owners to maybe look at for their sake. It does work. I've suggested the ice tray and oven gloves be added on a note I left. If you have a dog and shut the driveway gates do keep checking they are still closed as we kept finding them open and our dog got out one morning when we thought they were closed and as he's young we were worried to get him back but fortunately we got him quickly. Apart from the above we found the cottage to be extremely clean, well cared for and furnished to a high standard. Beds very comfortable. Shower is great and powerful. Plenty of hot water and heating great. View across the bay absolutely superb. Outside space well done and as I said, good for our dog to run around a bit. Its easy to cross the road at the front to take the dog for long walks. Also if you drive out towards Arnside Knott, on the way up the hill is a Forestry Commission trail which is wonderful for a dog walk as a stony path has been made which is great if its been wet. The fish and chip shop in Arnside is also great and the Curry place in Milnthorpe very good also we tried them both. If you pay cash at the curry house you get 10% off. There is a Booths supermarket at Milnthorpe which was ok for lots of basics like milk, bread, butter, veg etc. but I found to be lacking in some things so if anything special maybe take it with you. I must point out that the pub almost next door is still currently closed down which is a great pity because being so close it would have been great to pop along for some pub grub. Hopes it may re-open. We found the cottage to be very cosy and a great pleasure to spend some time relaxing in which was the purpose of our stay. Although we cleaned up last morning, I only hope we are forgiven for not hoovering up on our last morning as our dog decided to hurt his paw and we had to rush off away to get him to the vet before they closed at lunchtime. The Dyson hoover is great I used it couple of times through the week and it took no time to hoover up to keep the place tidy. Towels are thick and plush and there is a hairdryer in the main bedroom. There is also an outside umbrella for the Summer which is stored in cupboard in main bedroom as is an iron etc. If you decide to go stay you won't be disappointed. It was a strange feeling that I'd happened by sheer chance to have selected a cottage almost next door to my Aunt's house I used to spend time in as a child but a nice feeling and I'm hoping we'll be able to book to go again next year at some point if they'll have us. The bottle of wine was a lovely touch thank you as were the toiletries also. All in all a wonderful place and most definitely 5 stars and as I've travelled all over then if I say its good then you can take it to be so given I stayed in a cottage in the Lake District last year and couldn't wait to get out of it to go home and I went home early. Well done Nick and Leanne you've created a lovely place to stay thank you.

Shepherds View is in an amazing location with outstanding views.
The hut was as described and done to a very high standard. It had really great facilities and everything we needed for a short stay, close to the local town of Rhayader and other beautiful locations such as The Elan Valley and the Red Kite Feeding Station which was incredible. Unfortunately, there was one major issue which was the number of flies all over the outside and inside of the hut. On arrival we opened the door and were greeted by a LOT of flies and sticky fly traps were provided which made us realise it was clearly a problem. A lot of our time when at the hut was spent trying to get rid of flies which was really unpleasant and they could easily land on cups, plates etc. We couldn't leave the windows or door open during the day as they would quickly fly in which meant that the hut was very hot and stuffy. We were lucky to have good enough weather that we could sit outside and we think its likely that the flies were attracted to the heat from the hut as in the sun. There was an issue with our hot tub on the first day but had a quick response from Gemma to let us know that an engineer would be round the next day. We felt that a message or note could have been left for us so that we knew on arrival as we were quite disappointed. There was hot water in the hot tub but it was too hot to sit in for any length of time and actually enjoy. The problem was fixed the following day and the maintenance guy was really helpful despite not speaking any English. We really loved the hot tub once it was working properly. The hut was perfectly placed to view a gorgeous sunset over the hills and it was very peaceful and quiet. Overall we really enjoyed our stay in Wales and would love to visit the area again.

We had a fantastic stay over New Year's Eve.
The view from the hut is incredible and we loved spending each morning sat in the hot tub watching the red kites soar in the sky. It's a real treat to be in the middle of the countryside but have the modern luxury of Shepherd's view. It is so comfortable inside and has absolutely everything you need. Everybody involved and associated with the pods was fantastic and very helpful. When we accidentally blew a fuse in the hut (completely our fault!!), Gemma was so kind and professional on the phone and someone was over to resolve the issue in less than 5 minutes. We even met the owners Mother in Law when we accidentally drove on to her farm trying to find the place (a little on that below). She was so kind and hopped straight into her car and led us to where we needed to be. Only advice to those visiting would be to ignore the directions (which I presume are automatically generated by Sykes). Given that we were headed to a reasonably remote location, we thought it was better to use the directions than follow google maps, but the directions are useless and are just very vague directions to the postcode (which takes you to a farm slightly down the road). If you type in "Gellilas" to google maps, it will take you exactly to where you need to be. Overall, a brilliant break away and we will definitely be coming back!! It was cloudy whilst we were there but I bet the stars on a clear night are worth the return visit!

Currently there is land moving, excavation, heavy plant hire vehicles, drilling, from 7.
50 till 18.30 except Sun. Vans parked outside the hut, we never used the hot tub as it wasn't private due to the above. No welcome file for info/advice or recommendations on local restaurants or places of interest. Maintenance is required to the hut and a good clean and cutlery had to be washed before use, we've stayed in sherherds huts on several occasions in Cornwall and really love them, this one was not as good and we were very disappointed with the whole experience. We have taken photos as we think you should see for yourselves. Let me know where to send them? We live in the country and generally we have tractors, trailers etc up and down our lane, but did not expect this on a weeks holiday away from it all...I believe we should have been informed about this and given the choice to change our accommodation, as the level of work being carried out is not small, its on a huge scale and clearly has been planned and discussed in advance, way before our arrival? This trip was a gift to my Daughter on completing her degree, to chill, have a lie in and take a well earned rest, but it did not fulfil the criteria as advertised, would you sit outside and use a hot tub with all that going on outside?

We had a lovely week at Shepherdâs View.
The hut was very clean and welcoming and the owner Gemma was very helpful for anything we needed. The hut is small but laid out very well with some clever storage so plenty of room for all of our clothing and belongings. The bed folds down from the wall so has a very thin mattress making it very hard to sleep on- luckily we had an air bed we put on top and this made it very comfortable. We had a few day trips out in the local area (Elan Valley was lovely) and the local town of Rhayader had a Spar for essentials and some nice dog friendly pubs serving food. When back at the hut we spent a lot of time relaxing in the hot tub! The garden was perfect for our two dogs to run around in and there was a lovely seating area and a fire pit for the colder nights. The site was beautiful, with around 6 other huts/pods behind us, it still felt private and the scenery was stunning. They are building some hobbit houses which look amazing, the only downside to this was building work going on during the day, but this didnât affect us too much. Would definitely recommend staying here for a relaxing break with the added luxury of a hot tub and excellent views!
