    “We enjoyed our stay at the Shepherds hut very much It is so well equipped and comfortable that although the weather turned cold we were warm and cosy inside The owner is easily contactable and happy to ensure we had all we needed including a very nice welcome pack .”

    The hut stands in its own garden and only the sound of birds singing wakes you up .We had a lovely week exploring the area and great meals in the local pubs .I will recommend it to my friends and to anyone who wants to slow down and just take it easy .
