Guests say
Guests generally appreciate the Shepherds Hut - The Hurdle for its cosy charm, unique experience with alpacas, and tranquil location. The property offers a range of facilities and a clean environment, with several guests planning return visits. The local pub adds to the appeal, providing a welcoming atmosphere.
Most reviews describe the hut as clean and tidy, though some mention areas needing improvement, such as under beds and windows. One review cited a significant cleanliness issue, but this seems to be an outlier.
The location is praised for its tranquillity and proximity to local attractions and amenities, including a friendly local pub. The presence of alpacas and wildlife parks nearby adds to the charm.
The hut is frequently described as cosy and comfortable, with all necessary amenities. However, some guests noted the bed size and difficulty accessing certain areas, suggesting it may not be suitable for everyone.
Facilities are generally well-received, with the hut providing a surprising amount of amenities for its size. Suggestions for improvement include better cleaning tools and an electric kettle.
While the reviews mention the provision of towels and sugar, there is no consistent mention of welcome gifts or additional thoughtful touches, and therefore it is not possible to provide a score in this category.
About this property
One of two shepherd huts set on the Church View cottages site in the hamlet of Rosemarket in Pembrokeshire, is The Hurdle, surrounded by countryside with lovely scenic views of the fields. Perfectly suited for a couples break, you will enjoy romantic close quarters with your loved one in this cute and unique property. With its studio layout you can cook up something using the compact kitchen facilities, a simple tasty dish that you can eat at the breakfast bar, before enjoying a glass of wine outside in the shared garden as you take in the last light on a summer evening.
The double bed lies at one end of the hut, with clever hanging and shelf storage on the wall for your personal items. Fire up the woodburning stove in the winter for some extra warmth, and put on a favourite film on the wall-mounted TV. The en-suite shower room lies at the other end, where you can get ready for your day and the adventures it will bring. The Hurdle will be your own secret haven for the week.

Very warm and cosy. Everything you need in hut. Could do with non stick frying pans.could do with extra pillows. All coastal ways pretty much 20 min drive away. Great walks even in December.

Very cosy but due to our age (79 and 86 ) found it difficult to climb over the bed for the clothes hanging rail. But would probably stay again as only 5 minutes from family. Would take a low step next time to solve this problem. Had everything we needed. Lovely to have llamas as neighbours.
