We stayed in this Shepherds Hut over the weekend and had such a lovely time. The weather wasnt the best, but there was still plenty to do, and the lakes were really easy to get to whenever we wanted to explore. The hut itself was surprisingly spacious, with a cosy kitchen/living room setup that made it feel really welcoming. The bed was super comfy, and the bedding was absolutely lovely. We were also greeted by the sweetest farm dog, along with some very curious chickens, which added so much charm to the stay. The hot tub was a great touch and so relaxing, although it wasnt completely clear how to turn it off. The only other small thing was that there wasnt any tea, coffee, or sugar provided, which wouldve been handy on arrival. Overall, it was a really lovely stay, and wed happily return!
