An amazing weekend away, I never wanted to leave! The hot tub had been warmed up for our arrival and the log burners all stocked up ready to go with pizza dough ready in fridge! Also loved the fresh local milk and local cider waiting for us in the fridge! Can't recommend enough. I'll miss our neighbours (the sheep). The shower was also fab....

Our stay at The Whistle was pure perfection, we couldn't have asked for anything more and the hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful. Everything exceeded our expectations, we would love to return again in the future.

We had never stayed in a hut before so i booked it for my partners 30th and we had such a relaxing experience. The owners where amazing and provided everything you need. The views are beautiful along with the sheep and lambs as your neighbours. Couldn’t of asked for better. Everyone needs to experience this hut. Make sure you get in the hot tub and star gaze. Or wait for sunrise. Thankyou again Nick & Sally. We will definitely be returning ...
