Positiv: Absolutely love this place, this was our second visit and it was perfect once again. Hut is immaculate and you get very good directions and instructions. Lots of walking through the secret gate.
Hosts have thought of everything!
We will be returning,

Positiv: well located right by the forest with easy access to walks, quiet and relaxing, close to the A road for access but still feels like you are in nature we even saw some deer on our walks.
cosy, good use of space, good quality shower, bed was comfortable

Negativ: a shower mat or sharp knife to cut with would have been useful

Positiv: The shepherd's hut is in a field with a relaxing forest view, great for escaping into nature, lighting a campfire and stargazing. The inside is pretty, cosy and quite spacious for a hut. Hosts are quick to reply to messages. Mattress v comfy. Can hear cars from nearby road, but it was pretty quiet.

Negativ: It wasn't clear that we had to pay extra for the hot tub until after booking. This is not stated on their website or the Pitchup website, so it felt a bit like false advertising to have images of it & reviews mentioning it. Also disappointed that we didn't have a fire pit and had to ask to use one from a neighbouring hut. A bowl was dirty and had not been washed. Finally, towels are not provided, which was a bit inconvenient (the pre-arrival info does tell you to bring your own though, but we didn't read it early enough).

Positiv: We were a group of 3 mums with our children, we all loved it. Location, facilities, set up. All brilliant! 🤩

Negativ: I didn’t read the blurb properly so would have asked to include the hot tub (we ll do that next time!)

Positiv: Lovely quiet setting, even had deer visit one night. I was the only guest there the second night but felt safe and secure. Comfy bed all set up. Basic pans, cutlery, dishes etc provided. Great hot shower. Just needed my own towels and toiletries. Would visit again.

Negativ: Missed the gate twice (my fault not theirs!) But they did say it was secret!

Positiv: The level of communication from kind and friendly owners. Beautiful setting. Stunning accommodation. Log burner and bathroom facilities were wonderful. Very comfortable and cosy bed. Peaceful beautiful surroundings. Just the right size for my young daughter and me.

Negativ: Got slightly confused at first because the small forest gate instructions made me think that that was the entrance to the shepherds huts but that was mostly my own stupidity ha ha. No other dislikes. Would book again!

Positiv: The shepherds hut was ideal for our stay very lovely and quiet area lovely wooded walks and plenty of R&R. Communication with owners was very straightforward and easy to follow directions. If you are wanting internet access then this is not for you. It was great to be disconnected.

Negativ: One thing which would make stay a little better would be a little welcome pack of local walks around the wood and area. Also a user guide for the hot plate.
