A lovely secluded place with beautiful views. Everyone in the golf clubhouse were really friendly. Food good and coffee nice and hot.We saw in the new year in very cold weather. Log burner got the hut too hot at times. Small electric fan heater was a perfect backup. An EV untethered charging point is brilliant to charge overnight. Hut a little small but it's got everything you need. King sized comfy bed if you're tall. Interesting transport to and from the carpark. Would be far more enjoyable in summer to enjoy sitting outside and using the outside bath. We still loved the place. If you go out for a meal, then short drive to the Nags Head provides a warm welcome and great food. You won't be disappointed staying at Sugarloaf.

One of the best places to stay if you want to get away from it all. The Shepherds Hut is amazing along with the location. Nothing.
