The setting was absolutely beautiful with plenty of wood provided to sit in the hot tub and looks out into the rolling countryside. Brilliantly comfortable good sized bed for a small space. Friendly family dogs who came to say hello was a bonus! Lovely farmshop a 30 min walk away selling plants and snacks! The alpaca were very curious and entertaining, and a quick text to owner Paul meant we were able to feed them! Three nights was not enough - I could live here!!! Would highly recommend if you want to switch off entirely and take in the calmness and simplicity existence sometimes lends us. ...

Great location, pub only 5 min drive, shops about a 10 min drive. Peaceful, host didn’t bother us once, it’s great for a relaxing get away.
Mrs Mullett July 2022
Shepherds oak exceeded our expectations. We had 3 lovely days there - a real escape from the world with beautiful views and wonderful alpacas. We would definitely like to return.
Mrs Mitchell May 2022
Fantastic shepherds hut and very friendly and helpful owner. It was a relaxing and very enjoyable experience that I will remember fondly. Beautiful location and a real experience to spend the evening in the hot tub chatting and looking at the stars. The dog loved it too! I recommend opening the door in the morning and having a cup of tea in bed enjoying the amazing scenery. ...

The hut is clean, comfortable and perfectly situated. It’s easy to get to and the owners are on hand via text if you need anything. Great for visiting the city of Exeter and nearby local farm shops. The facilities are great for cooking (hob, bbq, toaster, kettle) and every utensil you need is supplied in the kitchen. The hot tub absolutely makes the stay so wonderful. The view is amazing! And the alpacas that visit every morning and allow you to feed them with the food provided is an absolute joy. A total pleasure to stay here....
