Last minute getaway
We had been recommended by a friend and what a lovely place it was, the shepherds hut was perfect for us with having a dog it was really secure allowing us to let our dog off the lead and not being able to escape, The shepherds hut itself was lovely and very comfortable, great that we had a hot tub and it was very clean and well looked after, will definitely return.

A perfect getaway in the heart of Wales
This little shepherds hut was exactly what we needed to get away from our busy lives! It’s so cosy, clean and such a stunning view even with bad weather. We had one issue with no hot water at the start of our stay, but this was sorted quickly and there were no other issues. It’s perfect to get away from it all and be in a peaceful place. The hot tub was brilliant to sit in under the stars and properly relax. Highly recommend!

Lovely views, comfortable stay, excellent for dog owners.
This has been our second stay at this location, although this time we stayed at Highland view. the reason we came back is because of the large fenced garden area with wire mesh so the dog can be let loose without a worry. Bed was very comfy with clever storage underneath, hot tub was perfect, and the caravan seems new and well kept. Excellent views as well and we will definitely come again!
A couple of suggestions that can improve the visitor experience:
The smoke alarm went off too easily, we were just doing some toast and eggs for breakfast and had to open both doors and the windows. A small extractor fan just above the toaster or hob would solve it.
Some hooks for hanging kitchen towel and another set in the bathroom would be helpful.
