Hobbit Hut cabin
Liked: The site was so lovely and magical for young kids. There were little trails in the woodland with wooden animals and fairy doors dotted around. Our cabin felt very private with its own toilet and shower just a second walk away from it. We had all of the cooking equipment needed with camping gas you can buy on site. Despite the rainy weather we loved our stay and would love to come back in the sunshine!
Disliked: Nothing!

Hobbit Hole cabin (secluded)
Liked: We loved our stay at the Acorn! The campsite is just beautifully and harmoniously integrated in the woods and very well preserved. We stayed at the Hobbit Hole, which was very cosy and had an amazing view. We really appreciated the patio in front of the hut and that kitchenware was provided so we could make our breakfast and dinner. Useful information and guidance were also available in the hut (including places to eat/walk nearby). The hosts were very friendly and helpful when we needed to buy gas bottles and logs. The toilets and showers facilities were also nice and convenient to reach. Finally, the location was great for driving/cycling to a nearby beach and/or small port towns like Charlestown.
Overall, a truly beautiful experience that I can't wait to repeat when I'll have the chance!

Shepherd's hut
Liked: We were looked after very well and had a lovely time walking around the local area, our accomodation was originally in one of their shepherd's huts but we got offered moved into a hobbit hole by the capsite owners due to an injury regarding rolling my ankle on the hills up to the hut, luckily this didn't ruin our stay as the injury lasted around 24hours. Both accomodations had amazing views and cosy rooms.
Highly recommend if you want an off grid camping/glamping adventure, remember to bring your own toilet roll if you do go!

Disliked: I will definitely come back again, but please you need to fix showers and maybe to give more information on reservation which hobbit house is booked for you, we ended up searching for long time but other than that it is great place to stay.

Shepherd's hut
Liked: Nice little Shepherds hut. The place has an excellent "magical woods" character, with charming "hobbit-hole" accommodation .
A couple of pleasant walks around the site.
Disliked: Be prepared for undulating ground. It was a bit of trek to the car park. Access to the site is difficult for larger vehicles due to narrow roads.
The Shepherd hut has no kitchen area and you'll need to buy gas canisters from a cupboard at the back of the owners house. It also has no electricity or wifi.
