Absolutely outstanding. The bed is so comfortable and big. Fabulous bathroom and shower, couldn’t believe the views, so peaceful and quiet. The sunset was amazing. The place was so much bigger than we expected. Definitely be back. Thank you for a wonderful stay. We stayed 4 nights. Wish it was more.

We absolutely loved our stay here - close to so many beautiful places to walk and explore, spacious hut with everything we needed for a few days sat within gorgeous views and beside farm animals, enclosed space for the dog to run around (note this is shared with the other hut which may be challenging if both huts are occupied) … we can’t wait to come back and continue our adventures 🙌

Fantastic hut with everything we needed & the most gorgeous views for our bank holiday stay. The closest village Parwich is just beautiful, definitely worth a visit!
