We absolutely loved Shepherd's Rest, it was just what we needed after a tough year. The peace and quiet and the comfort at the property completely recharged our batteries...it was a lovely place to come back to after a day out exploring...we are looking forward to returning there again in the future ...

Shepherds Rest was clean comfortable and had everything we needed . We enjoyed our stay and there are some lovely walks starting from the cottage . Katy was very welcoming and the welcome treats were very much appreciated. The farm track to the cottage was not great for a car....

Shepherds Rest is in a wonderful location surrounded by sheep and is so peaceful. The cottage was bright and airy with views all round. We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to going back.
Mr Bryant July 2025
Shepherds rest is a little gem, from the beautiful bright high standard decor to the amazing views out over open countryside and is spotlessly clean. Katy makes you feel so very welcome from the moment you arrive to when you sadly have to leave. A very yummy pack of goodies was there on our arrival including a bottle of wine. We loved the area and plan to return and we would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend....
