Truly stunning accommodation in beautiful, peaceful countryside. Short walk through beautiful fields and country lanes to the Dinnington Docks and Perry’s Cider Mill for gorgeous food and drinks. Loved our new sheep friends on our doorstep. So relaxing and therapeutic - it should be prescribed by the NHS. We loved it so much, we’re planning a swift return....

The shepherds hut was absolutely beautiful and the little added extras of milk and cider in the fridge, cereal and biscuits were extremely delicious and a lovely surprise. We would definitely recommend it to others.

Great place, the pizza oven and hot tub made this holiday. Lovely cozy space to just chill out for a couple nights. Will be returning!

We had the most wonderful stay in this superb shepherd’s hut! Nestled on a beautiful farm with breathtaking views, it was the perfect countryside escape. The hut itself was spotlessly clean, extremely comfortable, and had absolutely everything we needed for a relaxing break.The hot tub was a real treat, especially under the stars, and we had so much fun firing up the pizza oven for an evening feast. Our hosts were fantastic – warm, welcoming, and always on hand if we needed anything, yet respectful of our privacy. We honestly didn’t want to leave and have already decided we’ll be coming back. I can’t recommend this place highly enough – go and stay, you’ll love it as much as we did!...
