If tranquility is what you seek Reed View is the perfect place . Accomodation is very well equiped and spotlessly clean , located literally in a Reed bed ( hence the name i guess ) . Hut is very cosy and comfortable and only a short walk from the Bell pub located on the river bank . Spent 4 nights and would have enjoyed a longer stay as it was so peaceful .

We had a lovely weekend in the shepherds hut. It has everything you need for a comfortable stay. They have thought of everything! The bed was super comfy and the location is super cool. So interesting to be in a working marina. Everything was really clean and the shower was great. Would definitely recommend.
