We stayed here as a stopover and had two lovely nights there. The shepherds hut was clean and had everything you needed for a couple of nights stay. The hut was private and we managed to sit outside on the bistro set one morning with our coffee. We would definitely come back and would recommend.

Really enjoyed our stay and the cabin was prefect. Really appreciated being given the extra hour on Sunday with the delayed check out.
