I wanted to surprise my wife for our 10 year wedding anniversary and yes we both were surprised. The setting was beautiful! The accommodation was fantastic! The owners were very friendly, helpful and accommodating. It has lots of supermarkets, a petrol station and pub/restaurant around the area. It is about an hour away from a beach. Where we had a fantastic day out. If we didn't go out we could have a relaxing time in the hottub, play some games (that were provided). Then in the evening light the fire, have a BBQ and relax. We have already recommended to our friends and family and will definitely be booking again. Overall a relaxing, fun and romantic holiday! Thanks for having us. Bonus there was a massive swing for an adult to swing on haha!

Owners were very friendly, welcoming people and were always there if you needed anything. Beautiful location and views, perfect place to have a relaxing weekend away. Inside the shepherd hut had lovely decor, very clean, spacious, has the comfiest bed and we had the best sleep. Hot tub was great and the outdoor stove and heater made it lovely to sit outside. Would highly recommend and will be definitely visiting again soon
