Shepherd's hut
Liked: We love Benton View Shepherds Hut. We received a friendly warm welcome. The hut is gorgeous, so cosy and comfortable. Lots of love and thought has gone into it. The welcome goodies were greatly appreciated and made our stay extra special. The bed was super comfortable. The icing on the cake is the countryside setting and the animals. We loved watching the lambs and the chickens. It's so relaxing and peaceful, you can totally switch off from the outside world. We will definitely stay here again and i would highly recommend. 5 stars 10/10. Oh and i nearly forgot, we loved the log burner in the evenings, sipping a glass of wine and watching and listening to the crackling fire. So hypnotic and cosy!
